#twaot

G'day to you! Despite our inactivity on this site, our guild is still active and running, having also grown in numbers since the last update. Once again, I thank all the members who have sticked around and made this possible! So what has happened during our absence? Here are some news to get you up to date :

1. Happy 1st b-day to TWAoT!: And a huge THANK YOU to our wholesome RP community! You're an awesome bunch! ♡

2. Guild hall: The guild hall has now reached LEVEL 43 ! We've also added new RP areas, such as a clinic, a tavern and a performance stage. More areas may appear in the future, based on the needs and wishes of our guild members. Every platoon will also be getting their own little area, which they can decorate according to their wishes (more info on this can be found on our Discord server).

3. Changes in leadership: Both OOC and IC, Favillion and Nymerine have switched their leadership positions. Nym now holds the title of Confidant while Favillion (= IC his asura character, Flaxx) works as the guild's Warden. More information on this can be found on our lore server on Discord.

4. Story development: There has been plenty of story-related development throughout this year. Cultists are still gathering their forces as Lazarus attempts to return back after his previous defeat. A new potential enemy (or a friend?) has made their appearance - another demon, who seems to have a past connection with Lazarus. The Gilded remain active, still plotting TWAoT's demise. To properly catch up with both our main stories as well as side stories, you can read about it on our lore server (guild-arcs section). We also write reports of the events (for members only) on our Discord server, which will give you more detailed information about everything that occurs.

5. Content for new members: Since our guild likes to be as inclusive and considerate with its content as possible, we've created new ways to make it easier for new members to adjust and find their place in our guild. For this purpose, we've come up with "IC-job list" (on Discord) which lists new casual events (aka "jobs") for members to participate in every week. We hope this to make it easier for new members to form connections within the guild and become comfortable with joining more challenging events.

6. Changes in reaching specialized rank: Creating events takes a lot of time and effort. For this reason, we've decided to make some changes when it comes to Apprenticeship and reaching a specialized rank: From now on, members will be able to gain their rank by actively taking part in events and missions. This will allow Leaders and Mentors to focus more on other content while making it faster for Apprentices to reach their ranks.
