Favorite Clan

[Clearsighted]

The T'zai Byn for all the reasons listed above and more. There was something uniquely special about signing up as a Runner at the same time as a half dozen other raw recruits, and seeing who was still alive a year later. Not to mention the bonds that would form.

[Pale Horse]

Soh Lanah Kah.  From the time, long before it was a codded tribe, to the times after, it's been a fun place.

Council Of Allanaki Mages.  Having had the chance to play several characters in it, and leave a lasting impression on not just the player base (some of you, anyway), but on Zalanthas it's self, left me with a warm feeling.

[manonfire]

CAM - I've had the pleasure (and, occasionally, displeasure) of running many characters in this clan. I count myself lucky to have been integral in it's early stages.

Kurac - Haven't played with 'em for awhile, but it was truly epic in it's heyday.

Salarr - Was lucky enough to be around during one of the greatest times (arguably) in this clan's history, and played alongside some amazing characters. You know who you are.

Ptar Ken - Demonstrated to me a completely different facet of Zalanthan culture, and pushed my RP talents to the absolute maximum.

[LauraMars]

That dwarf "Blue" (I think? Or was his name House?) that was totally obsessed about making an awesome house.

Oh my god, I loved that dwarf - he was hilarious.  I met him with my character who was called Door.  Needless to say, he was thrilled by the architectural nature of her name, and had a house attack for like half an hour.  And she had blue hair, so it was like, love at first sight for the guy.  Kudos to you, blue dwarf.  Whoever you were.

Kadius has been good to me.

[Delstro]

The T'zai Byn. Playing with Bela the Butcher, Sujaal, Zak, Tears, and getting fucked up by numerous byn units while I was in Tor, SLK, Lyksae, Kadius, and Salarr proves that no clan is better. I have had more fun cleaning latrines, learning, and experiencing in the byn than the rest of the game. It is that damn awesome.

[Mood]

House Oash - Love my murdering with a hint of subtly, a splash of wince-inducing magicks, and a small dash of politics.

Yeeeep.

The most enjoyable crew I've been a part of, though, has been House Salarr's Expansion Division, under a certain Salarri agent.

[Janna]

Tor.

Hands down.

[Dan]

Im not even going to say Salarr. The Merchant House is a completely different animal from what the Expansion Division was.

I actually, now that I think of it, had a thorough 'Murder Intrigue Betrayal' character with that group. I don't think any other character would fully embody those traits than the one I had with the Expansion Division. Also having every possible inch of his body getting tattooed, some parts two or three times when he thought he saw a better one that could cover up the old. Will never forget dancing naked down caravan way while blitzed drunk, on the same day he followed someone home and killed them for bad mouthing one of his superiors under his breath.

Being a Southern Templar was a crap load of fun. Gim, you rocked. As for someone else, wow man, one of the best deaths ever!

Byn Sergeant is pretty incredible, even if I did lead my crew into the middle of a 'Your Really Fucked Now' sort of sandstorm to miss 90% of a big RPT.

One particular independent mage group. The core few that there were with me at one particular time and no matter how many came and left through the course of it all, you guys all rocked.

Tuluk in general, the Faithful, Chosen, Merchants and Indies. You rock. Especially the First, you guys are great.

SLK, because I -almost- killed Masha before there was an SLK. Glad I didn't now!

Tor, because of one particular Tor noble who will go unmentioned.

[Vessol]

T'zai Byn.

Get a chance to see some of the most interesting RP in the game there. Get to see all sorts of different places. A massive variety of players that make it fun. And even when it was mind-numbingly frustrating at some times, it was still awesome. My only gripe would be the repetitiveness between awesome missions and -not a OOC year shouldn't talk-.

[jhunter]

House Salarr. My favorite pc was in Salarr along with a couple of my favorite characters that I had the pleasure of playing with for over a RL year. Played a new character with that clan through the fall of Luir's and through the mantis occupation and for some time after the hordes were defeated and Luir's was reclaimed. There are probably way too many stories with that character to tell without missing alot of good stuff.

My second favorite staff run clan was the Sun Legions/Tuluki Templarate.

[Only He Stands There]

Salarr Expansion Division, for its intrigue, its badassery, its never-say-die, its extensive reach, its "rofl what" moments, its ability to cause two to three people a WEEK to ditch their former clans to join (that was a CRAZY time), and its inauguration of the SEEDS unit.

Yar.

[Shiroi Tsuki]

I had the chance to be both in the Arm and in the Salarr Expansion Division when those two clans were at their most recent peak of awesomeness.  I would say that was a bitchin' experience, though I also have lots of love for House Fale and House Kadius.

I think the players in certain clans make the clans awesome, rather than it being a trait of the clans themselves.

[flurry]

I've had some great clan experiences and some horrible ones.  But I keep coming back, and the good ones were really great.

The three favorites are easy for me: Kurac, Lyksae, and CAM.  But I think a lot of it comes from being in certain clans at the right time, and certain other ones at the wrong time.

[Krath]

My FAVORITE clan is T'zai Byn. With 200 active pcs or with 2. Nothing says gritty then being on your hands and knees scrubbing piss and shit with a smile because you know it is better than being out there on your own.

Favorite Clan group: House Winrothol with Everyone that was there with Lieutenant Kestine and Sergeant Seeque and then Sujaal coming north and opening the academy! Man that core group is what made me finally understand what RPing was all about, that summer of 2000. It forever changed my RP. You all know who you are, but maybe one day, we will all be in the same clan again!

[Reiloth]

Haruch Kemad - If you don't think there is a political underbelly besides the Guild in the Labyrinth, you are horribly wrong. HK opened my eyes to the depth behind some of the elven families, and introduced me to --

The "N-Tr" - You know who you are. We were awesome.

The Guild - Despite times that may have seemed twink-ish, I actually thoroughly enjoyed this clan and all that it stood for.

Expansion Division - Between ass-stabbery, pantless groping while unconscious, discovering mysterious secrets in far off lands, or discovering just how insane we were, this is by far one of the most hilarious and lasting clan experiences I have had in Arm.

House Lyksae - Thanks to the players, this clan has turned out to be one of the most fleshed out, developed, culturally rich clans ever to exist. Kudos to that!

[Fathi]

I guess I should append my earlier post to specify that most of my Salarr experiences were in the Expansion Division, although a good deal of them were in plain jane vanilla House Salarr as well.

Not that playing in Salarr was ever a particularly vanilla experience.

And though it doesn't quite count as a clan itself, I've always thought the Jihaen Order was a really badass concept.

[RogueGunslinger]

The guild. Because of what it is.

Kurac. Because of how gritty/awesome it is, not to mention some of the coolest documentation.

The Arm. Because I've never had more fun playing, even if it was a short stint. Mainly because of awesome characters/players.

[brytta.leofa]

The Arm. Because I've never had more fun playing, even if it was a short stint. Mainly because of awesome characters/players.

Even when pitted against one another.

[Red Ranger]

Kurac.

Great history, diverse facets to the clan, fantastic players, fun and creative imms, my favorite times playing.

I'm sorry, but I didn't start playing until sumer 2001. My first char was not with Sujaal in the Byn. She was a 50 day warrior. My second char was a Fale who lived a while.

So Sujaal was NOT 2000. I am drunk. Ignore typos.

[Ammut]

Kurac and The Guild.

[musashi]

Staff seems like a decent clan. I've been never been in it but ... from the experiences I've had with them, seems like they aren't all complete jerks.

[Boggis]

The Byn - you get all sorts coming through the doors and lacks a lot of the OOC clique rubbish that pervades some clans in particular.
The Guild (when it sticks to being a criminal gang)

Mother fuck yes.  A-Fucking-Men.
