Gryphon's Compact

About Gryphon's Compact

Do you have a job and a normal life? Do you perhaps have kids and a spouse? Or simply want to hang out with normal people instead of grinding endlessly towards the end game and being scolded for not following the meta or having BiS?

Well join Gryphon's Compact on the RP ruleset.

We're an Alliance RP-lite guild, so we will hold RP events and facilitate RP in open world and dungeons while not requiring it in guild chat.

Our goal is to be a guild for regular people who can act like adults and want to have a fun 3rd space. We also love new players. Many of our founding members will brand new not just to forever but WoW as a whole.

We don't want to micro-manage grown adults so we have very simple rules.

Have an RP friendly name per the RP ruleset requirements and not a gamertag, pun or joke as a name.

Don't be rude or hostile to other people. If a joke isn't well received, just apologize.

Don't be politically brain rotted. Polite Political discussion within the normal confines of American discourse is fine but we're not looking for groypers, terrorist supporters or any sort of weirdos.

Don't demand meta. Parse to your hearts content but don't demand others do the same.

**Raid** **Philosophy**

In classic I played a ret paladin until I was forced to put on a dress and heal. I completed six raids before getting bored with the end game and leaving until forever launched. I don't want that kind of environment.

Our goal is fun, classic is an easy game. Meta chasers try to speed run. We do challenge runs the proper way - by playing with the people who want to play regardless of whether they have the BiS or the best spec. We won't turn down Shadow Priests or Arms Warrior DPS.

We also will not be rushing to end game. There's plenty of PUGs to play in the mean time if you hit 60 before the rest of us. Have your fun and BS with in the guild chat after.

**Guild** **Theme:**

Gryphons Compact is named for a symbol of Lordaren. The Gryphons compact is a head canon treaty between refugees of Lordaren with various peoples. They help the refugees in reclaiming their homeland, and we in turn help other races and groups with their aims that will be developed more as we progress and fill up the guild.

**Special Ranks**

Bored of officers and members? We will be making special ranks for members depending on their culture, class, and RP character. A Warlock Officer may be the High Occultist, while a Dwarf Officer may be the Emissary to Ironforge.

**Open Recruitment**

Active Members will be given full invite privileges. Once myself or any officer recognizes you playing enough to qualify as an active member then congrats, you can invite other people. A few days playing with the guild will typically be sufficient for membership status. If someone can recognize your name and see you a couple times then congrats you're an active member.

In the early stages, everyone who joins will be instantly an active member.
