I've been playing off and on since 2007/2011. I made the account in 07, but really got into it in 11. Since then, I've put in countless hours on the OG launcher and about 1,000 hours on Steam.

I'm currently cumulative level 24k (rounding up), main Talent is Alchemist with four Grandmaster talents. I'm not the strongest or most knowledgeable player, but I make up for it in honesty, tenacity and the occasional dad joke. I'm currently making a build for my Alchemy to be my secondary Talent, supporting whatever will be my primary and Magic will be my tertiary.

I've been a part of three guilds to date. I'm currently in number three and it is amazing. Should any guild mates come across this post prematurely and figure out who I am, don't take it the wrong way; we've got the same goals and aspirations, but I need to try forging my own path. And should anyone wish to walk this path with me, this is the invitation.

The Guild I'm looking to create would have three main goals:

1) To have fun with the game.

It can become lonely. It can become a grind. It can become frustrating bs between quests, enchants, upgrades, events and so on. Having people, and eventually comrades, around you enjoy being around (semi)regularly can help mitigate these feelings.

2) To obtain power.

The power to operate on your own for those solo missions. The power to fight with your comrades flexibly and efficiently. The power to slay your enemies with ease. The power to help those who need it, be they new, veteran or returning.

3) ???

This is your goal. I, as the guild leader, will do what I can, when I can to help you achieve this, and any other goal you may have - so long as that goal isn't nefarious or hurts anyone. Your guild mates will also help you in this goal, and you will help then in theirs. That's what guilds are for.

If you're familiar with Log Horizon, my overarching goal is to essentially have create a version of the Debauchery Tea Party within Mabi: a close knit group capable of running high level content while having fun and getting to know each other and grow. It's a simplistic and even borrowed dream, but it's an honest one. One that I know a lot of you out there share, but can't quite grasp. I'm here to create that group. Or at least give it a genuine attempt.

If these optimistic ramblings of a sleep deprived potential guild leader have piqued your interest, send me a DM. I've asked someone I know in game to join the initial group of five to create a guild, so there are three initial slots left. I would like for the starting five members to be reliable, proactive pillars of the guild for as long as they're a part of it so that anyone else who joins can have people to interact with and look up to, in a sense. Since this is a brand new guild, and the first time I'd be a guild leader, there WILL be a rather intensive screening process. I firmly believe in getting to know people who you'll be playing with and that's an attitude that I'd like to be present always.

Thanks for reading this post, and if you have any questions, post them in the comments so everyone can see and communicate freely. This will also save me a lot of repeating myself in DMs. Oh and yes, I have a guild name prepared. Two, actually. But that's for when the five have been established and I can create a guild.
