 he
guild was originally known as MfH, or Mercenaries for Hire. |
| It was founded in August 1996 during version 1.x, or alpha, |
| by Duece/Krohn, and a small group of people he had met and |
| befriended on The Realm. Duece's ideas were simple, yet brilliant. |
| He wanted a close-knit group dedicated to combating the vile |
| jumpers and thieves that inhabited the new land, while avoiding |
| cumbersome rules and regulations of the more formally |
| structured guilds. FOUNDING MEMBERS: |
 fH officially disbanded
3/30/97, and CIA rose in its place. |
| There were several reasons for the disbandment. Primarily, it was |
| felt that the name did not adequately describe the guild, or our mission. |
| Duece chose the initials CIA to be the
antithesis of the jumper guild known as MoB (Masters of Blood). Thus, Champions In Arms was born. |
 uster was our webmaster in version 2.x, and still maintains a |
| CIA website. Go to: http://w ww.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Dungeon/1486/ |
| to view this wonderfully nostalgic tribute to past glories. |
| Mytram is our current website designer for version 3.x. He has created a splendid homepage for the guild, which includes a CIA message board. This new site is located at: http://www.champions-in-arms.com |
| We can be found on the Realm channel #142. It is a private channel, and only listed members and known friends are allowed in; all others must be verified and approved by guild leadership. |
 hampions In Arms
is a guild dedicated to the annihilation of the darker forces of our world--the
Realm. Testament to our dedication to this cause can be traced back to the very root
of this lands existence. |
| We value all of our members equally; As long as our goals and values are compatible, all races, classes, levels, and alignments are welcome. |
 ur
main goal is to combat the Opposition. This is accomplished by hunting jumpers,
participating in retalitory actions, gathering and reporting pertinent information to
guild leadership, assisting/instructing new members, manufacturing and enchanting
weapons/armor, and any other function that furthers guild objectives. Of equal
importance, is maintaining a sense of camaraderie and enjoyment that is essential to
enhancing the spirit of the game. |
 ower
level (non-pvp) members are considered as worthwhile as their higher level (pvp)
counterparts, and are useful as scouts and support staff during hunting operations and in
the event of an inter-guild war. No member should ever feel that he is too low level or
weak to join in training sessions, or guild spars in the Tourney Grove. It is never
too early to begin training, and it is wise to keep in mind that the ultimate goal of all
members should be to obtain the levels and experience required to join the ranks of our
valiant fighting force. |

has been some confusion as to what we stand for. We define ourselves as chaotic/good
vigilantes. We are totally anti-jumper, and seek to destroy jumpers and thieves
"by any means necessary." (Our guild motto, the Latin phrase "Per
fas et nefas" Means "by means just and un-just"-by any means necessary.)
There is no restriction on being in an out of character friendship with a jumper, as long
as he/she knows you will kill him/her at the slightest opportunity. Jumpers and
their ilk are not to be allowed on channel, and the channel is to be kept private to
ensure its sanctity. We do not treat with jumpers--for any cause. It is
unacceptable to group with the Opposition unless it is for a friendly spar. |
