Guilds (Guild Help)

The Guilds are formal player organizations meant for roleplaying. Each Guild has a different and unique theme and purpose in Arda which must be approved by Valinor. In order to learn more about a particular guild, you should talk to one of its members, or visit the clan room in Bree or Khemnahr.

Unlike clans, each Guild is granted a guild hall which they may then freely customize. Apart from being a 'safe spot' that many find their home on the MUD, the guild halls provide a number of very useful services such as armouries or shops. It is certainly worth it to become a member of a guild!

There are also several help files that have been made to help you better understand the Guilds:
