Introduction

Welcome to Halcyons guild page! Halcyons was founded by Scirio August 22 2013, disbanded in January the following year, and then reformed in February the same year. Our guild is a tight knit community of people with focus on having fun. We frequently play Shadow Lairs, Lockdown, and other games together.

The guild is mainly European. People from other regions are accepted but timezones may cause issues for such players. Communications take place on several platforms, but primarily through the site, in-game, and through RaidCall.

Games

• Spiral Knights
• BattleBlock Theater

Ranks and applications

• Recruit: the lowest rank. The only requirement is that your application to the guild is accepted and you accept the invitation you're given.
• Member: the second and intended to be the most common rank. To become a member, you must stay active in the guild for five days.
• Veteran: members who should be able to help you out when in need. Veterans are expected to have plenty of knowledge about the game and the guild so that they can be of assistance for those who need it. They are also expected to be kind, helpful, and give Halcyons a good image. Members need not apply for the Veteran rank; the Officer crew will discuss potential Veterans internally and talk to the person in question about it before promoting.
• Officer: an Officer keeps Halcyons running, arranges events, handles recruitment, and so on. To become an Officer, you write a free-form application which will be discussed and judged by the Officer and Guild Master crew. There are no strict requirements on what the application has to contain but it may be a good idea to write why you want to become Officer and what you wish to do if you receive the promotion.
• Guild Master: a Guild Master's role is being the failsafe when poop hits the fan. The current Guild Masters are Dottir and Scirio, who are founding members of the guild.

To join the guild, please go to our site and you should be able to apply by clicking the apply button in the recruitment box found on the left side of the page.

Rules

• The amount of fun you'll have in Halcyons = (the amount of bs you can take * LD skill) - banter / your time zone

• Never spam your polaris.

We're a strict anti-spam guild, spamming polaris is a cheap way to win and ruins the fun for other players, which is uncool and selfish.

• Don't beg.

Gtfo if you beg.

• Cursing is allowed, just don't use it to offend others.

We're not going to stop you from cursing, we will stop you from offending guildies.

• No spoilers.

Can't believe this has to be a rule but this seems to happen a lot, so if you spoil we'll burn your fridge.

• Just be mellow and mature.

This is the best rule, just be chill. Get to know eachother, chill with them, have fun. Just be mellow. Sure you can make a few childish jokes, but don't annoy other people with them. We have zero tolerance for annoying pricks.

We make sure everyone has a good time during our matches. By keeping it rage free and spam free.

It may seem trivial but it builds good relations with other guilds and makes the game a lot more fun than blatantly insulting everyone.

Our guild may be PvP based, this doesn't mean we don't do other stuff. There's a few players who like to do PvE. We have a big amount of merchants who like to hang out in haven and swap tips about trading (ha, irony) and items as well.
