Talk:Guide to Clans

If you think we've left out a clan you believe to be important, or would like to provide other feedback, leave a message here and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

• Have you considered including some of the lesser clans with perhaps a one-sentence description? --Oktavius 18:35, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

No, we haven't. Would you like us to? -Mark D. Stroyer 21:33, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

I think you should. There are some clans that are not very active or vocal but have quite a few members. And then there are small clans that have an impact in metagaming. Some examples: Kraken Hunters, Pastafarian Buccaneers, Durham Citizen, The Necromancers Guild, The Mad Scientists, The French. --Oktavius 00:31, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

• Doubled. Parrotologists' Society, Healers of Shartak, Knights of the IRC Channel, Creedy Republic, Raktamites... --Lama 01:07, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Well you did miss us hard working Necromancers of wiksik, we are currently one of the major clans operating in the town!--Etherdrifter 02:10, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

That one I knew about. The Necromancers were first on my list to add. They're the only ones I know enough about to add, in fact.--Black Joe 15:04, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

It's good to name most clans, it makes little to complain about. Especially the groups with wiki pages. --Wulla-mullung

I've put out a request for clans to give us a short description of what they do. No one has responded yet, and I don't really know enough about the rest of the clans to write something on my own.--Black Joe 15:03, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Sounds reasonable. --Wulla-mullung 01:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

It occurs to me that my phrasing thus far suggests I did all the work. This couldn't be further from the truth. Javier Sortani, Broderick, Mark D. Stroyer, and Rob Zombie all made sizeable contributions to this effort. Bauer also helped us get the facts straight. I'm sure I've missed someone.--Black Joe 06:11, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

...Although James did the largest section on his own. -Mark D. Stroyer 23:59, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Clan descriptions

I wouldn't dare modify your nice guide myself, so I am putting some descriptions here. Feel free to change them as you deem appropriate. I hope this will be an incentive for others to add some more clans. --Oktavius 00:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Kraken Hunters - A group of devoted hunters, both natives and outsiders, who are after giant squids. The members share information and cooperate to take down these powerful animals.

Durham Citizen - Members of this clan carry the rights and responsibilities of a citizen of Durham as defined by the Durham government. These include the protection of and the responsibility to uphold the law and the right to vote.

Mad Scientists - The Mad Scientists are inquisitive minds that aim to study the animals, plants and items found on the island and generally figure out how things work. Dedicated to a life of research for the sake of improving mankind, their motto is: "For Science!"

The French - This clan is open to all who fight against the batard couchon Anglais. Mais oui! And for those who love the wine and the women, mais oui! Huh, huh, oh mon Dieu, mais oui.

Knights of the IRC Channel - A clan made to promote the use of the Shartak IRC channel. Visit the IRC for chatting, trout slap fests and a lot of fun.

Independent Republic of Fort Creedy - An independent, democratically-ruled nation based on the grounds of Fort Creedy, NW of Durham.

Shartak Deforestation Movement - Taking a radical approach to the dangers of the jungle, this clan aims to make Shartak safe but turning the island into a desert. Creating a suitable habitat for the Shartak Island Desert Tortoise is a bonus.
