Rewards and Awards

Post by Silk »

Making a Request
A Rogue in good standing may request one (1) item from the award list provided their guild level satisfies the requirement of the tier assigned—listed in a later section—to that item. Petitions for a generic item award may be executed by contacting any Rogue Officer (do NOT bother Silk with the generic reward requests). All you need do is inform any Officer you wish to take advantage of this policy. The Rogue requesting need not be subscribed (paying) in the lands so long as their guild level meets the minimum requirement of the tier and they are in good standing.


The Trial and The Record
Once the Rogue of appropriate guild level and good standing petitions an Officer for a generic item award, the Rogue will then be tried in a method that suits the pleasure of the Rogue Officer whom is the recipient of the Rogue’s request. Guild needs and personal experience are all factored in so expect the worst and hope for the best. No matter how formidable a certain task may seem, know that no trial will be administered that cannot be eventually bested by you. You should not expect any strict template amongst the Officers. Similarly, you should not expect greater ease corresponding to lower tiered items.

On the other hand, what will be critical to note is that no trial is deemed passed or fulfilled until the Rogue whom made the request has posted a record of their adventure on guild forums.

Things to consider in choice of forum: nature of the trial given and personal willingness to publicize certain deeds. These posts need not be voluminous novels contemplating the philosophies of scholars past, nor are the posts anticipated to place any undue hardships on the Rogue desirous of the generic item awards. The posts are simply a recording of the Rogue’s adventure following the trial received by them. The only two requirements for these posts are: (1) the effort is the product of good faith and planning that displays the work was worth the reward, and (2) the post either mentions the Officer’s task explicitly or mentions the assigned task in a form equally indicative of the Officer’s trial.

The following are suggestions for the requesting Rogue’s forum record: the means the Rogue employed to accomplish their goal; character development; things the Rogue found personally interesting about the trial; things the Rogue disliked or found challenging about the trial; any other artistic, crafty idea that suits your whim (have fun with it!).


Award Proceedings
Once the tale of the Rogue’s adventure is complete and viewable on the Guild forums, they should be patient whilst it is in review. Though it is not necessary to do so, the Rogue is welcome to follow up with the assigning Officer as to respectfully inform them that they have finished the task. As one message by pigeon or in the realms is enough, Rogues having finished their records are asked not to exceed this number of follow ups.

The Guild’s Officers shall thereafter revisit the published adventure and make their reply to its author no later than three (3) days’ otherworldly (earth) time after the date it was posted. At the time all is deemed well, the event’s assigning officer will arrange pigeons (e-mail) sent to both Silk and the Rogue to be awarded.

Under absolutely no circumstances should any member of this Guild involved in the program attempt to communicate with any other immortal about receipt of the item involved in this program. Failure to follow this simple rule shall result in the item’s forfeiture with no foreseeable prospects of refund. By the same token, Rogues outside of office—-those who are not GL’s or the GM—-should never attempt to expedite their receipt of the award through our Patron Silk. All business Silk has with members of the Guild interested in this program will be first conducted by him, not us.


Frequency of Award Limitations - Two Weeks
Assuming a genuine record from the requesting Rogue is made on the forums, the date of their post (not the date of the award) will start an otherworldly clock to run for a period of two weeks. During that two week period following the Rogue’s adventure, no further requests for other generic item awards will be entertained by those in Office from that Rogue. For this reason, you are advised to carefully consider what it is you want when making the original request. There is no reversal of a request after a trial is administered, no “I changed my mind”, etc. Think; calculate. Once two full otherworldly weeks have elapsed, the Rogue is free to repeat this process.

Special Rewards
Sly Weasel:
The fabled Sly Weasel of the Rogues’ Guild is no ordinary beast. There exists a certain breed of the most cunning weasel in Norland that only Rogues have been able capture and train as their faithful companions. Some say that this is because only a Rogue is cunning enough to catch it.

One thing is certain, however. A Rogue who is lucky enough to capture one of these Weasels in the wild will find it a faithful companion forever.

Once you have attained Guild Level 74 and Age 45, you are primed to seek out the Weasel’s Den by seeking out an Article I authority and stating your intention to brave the adventure. Additionally, seeing as a Rogue who joins the ranks of the Weasel riders has accomplished a great milestone in the Guild, you will be asked to share with us your tale on the message boards.

Special Black Mithril Items:
1. Black Full Plate Armor: Guild Level 49 and Age 30
2. Tri-Bladed Black Sword: Guild Level 49 and Age 20

Durain’s Dagger:
Special dedication to the guild

Oak-Handled Knife:
An exceptionally rare Elder weapon which is grantable only by the Patron of the Guild.
