Who We Are

Shapeless is a friendly, community based guild open to all tier players. Arcade runs, boss token collection expeditions, danger missions, shadow lairs, PVP; We do it all. Add to that a chatty group of guildies, frequent events, and an ever changing guild hall and you've got Shapeless.

Founding Guild Masters

Mushy

"I'm one of our Guild Masters at Shapeless. I do frequent runs, T3 LD, love SLs, and am always lurking on the Guild Forum. I usually fit the mood of the time, silly or serious. I love meeting new guildies, no matter the rank or skill. I also enjoy Guildhall features and stuff of the sort. Author of "The Story of Shapeless" (on our forums). Hope to see you all soon."

Mushy-Bucket, otherwise known as Mushy or Mush, is one of the two original founders of Shapeless. He is a dedicated player of Spiral Knights and a knowledgeable one at that. He enjoys nothing more than a few too many rounds of Tier 3 Lockdown with some friends and guildmates. Something he enjoys even more is a good old chat about something, whether it be the game itself or what was on the news last night. Mushy loves wolvers for their cuteness and despises jellies because reasons. Outside of the game, he specializes in lurking forums as well as using SpiralSpy. He also has an abnormal love of Snarby.

Gibberishly

"Hey! I'm Gibberishly, aka snipe lover, aka omg cute kitty-kat looking thing, aka person who keeps hanging up no-eating-snipe-signs (stop taking them down!!!). I frequent the arcade, t1 lockdown, danger missions and of course, snipe watching. Many of the guild events are by me. Now excuse me, I need to go make more snipe signs."

Gibberishly, popularly called Gibb, is the Snipe Queen. A true leader, the title isn't a fake. Gibb is your go-to knight for any and all questions. She is a reliable player who fails at letting you down. She's a excellent bomber and expresses this skill on every depth you play with her. Outside of runs, she is as fun as can possibly be, and keeps things exciting. Gibb has great skill at crafting engrossing and enjoyable events and contest that help you meet people. She is also an avid fan of Tier 1 Lockdown and jumps in on any match she sees. But most of all, she loves SNIPES... and some kitties too.

The Community

The Shapeless community is defined a group of friendly players of all Tiers, Rank, skill, and level. Such things do matter, and thus everyone gets along. The chat is friendly to people of all ages and can contain inviting conversations. This expands onward to our well-used forum, that features many subforums and categories to browse and post in. All of our Guild's rules are posted there, as well as all of Gibb's exciting events! It is also home to Mushy's The Story of Shapeless and the The Story of Shak, which is a forum game to some extent. These stories are posted in a subforum for other submissions such as hand-drawn drawings, stories, SpiralSpy works, and things of that nature. The general chat is home to all manner of posts, from questions to discussions. There's even threads tracking progress on things such as Boss Statues or other savings.

The Guild Hall

Our Guild Hall features Rain in the Cooling Chamber theme. All the of the left-side rooms are available for 9,000 crowns a week and can be shared with up to three other people. The space between the ramps and other rooms have been dubbed Alcoves and can be rented with three other people for 6,000 crowns a week. The War Room is also available for rent, at 12,000 crowns per week. Beyond room rentals, our hall features services such as crafting, a well-stocked member storage, and the auction house. Boss statues are also being created to accompany a decent amount of other furnishings. Donations are not required until you are of Veteran rank. In addition the Energy Well system is no longer supported, due to the patch that removed mist and the 20% bonus on energy donations.
