Someone pissing all over your hut's front lawn? Is someone smart-mouthing the trader? Are you an animal rights activist who's tired of seeing the trader's dogs mercilessly cut down? Is there an elephant attacking your loved one? Is there a hut that needs freeing? Is there a parrot kicking your ass while you wander drunk in the jungle? Do you need a project sabotaged? Well, you came to the right place.

==Mercenary's Guild, what?==
 +
It's pretty simple: party 1 pays party 2 to kill party 3. We're party 2.  
  
To put it simply, the Mercenary's Guild is an open group for mercenaries traveling together in a small band doing both good and evil deeds in exchange for gold.
+
We (not currently, but soon will) have branches in all the outsider towns, who handle business in those towns. For example, the Durham branch deals with Durham bounties and contracts, and also the business in the surrounding areas. This is still being implemented as the MG has recently reunited. We're still picking up the pieces.
  
 
== History ==
 
== History ==
Back in the day, The Malice was a kind-hearted man. He came over to Shartak with a batch of survivors who ended up founding Durham. Soon it turned out that there was to be a road connecting the settlements of York and Durham. The Malice set out to help with the road-building when he noticed that a large amount of people appeared to be identical! How odd! He killed one and so started his serial-killing days, dashing onto the road and killing those who worked on it. Eventually, The Malice gained his current nickname - because he was a Malice.
+
It's a long history. It's had it's ups and it's downs. Right now it's on an up after a very long down which was preceded by several ups.  
 
 
A few days after he started killing those on the road, he noticed someone named Wojciech who shared his ideals. Wojciech turned out to be a friend of The Malice from long ago, so they joined together once more and united efforts against the road. They smashed roadmarkers, obliterated directions carved on trees, and urinated on the road in a (relatively futile) attempt to have it grow back. Although belatedly, the road was finished despite the efforts of the two, and they found themselves without anything to do. After twiddling their thumbs a bit, they decided to call a truce with the highwaymen and entered the settlement of York - ironically, The Malice got a bit lost on the way there even though he was following a road. York appeared to be under attack from Pirates and Native villagers alike so the two fought side by side with their old enemies against a new, more coordinated force. When they had a super-secret meeting in the middle of a packed Armoury, someone mysteriously over-heard their plans of sneaking into the jungle and killing random people and asked to join their group.
 
 
 
After a few more days, the trio decided to just stay in York a bit longer, get refreshed, and become full-time mercenaries instead of pillaging bandits. A few hours later and they decided to just make it formal, so the first Mercenary's Guild of Shartak was created.

The Mercenaries have no goals in particular. They fight evil and good alike and there are only a few things they shy away from doing. They stay together in a close-knit group of friends and go where they want until someone hires them to do a job - in exchange for gold, of course. Lots of pretty shining gold.

* As we can't trust everyone, we can refuse service to whomever we wish for whatever reason we wish.
 
* We will need gold paid before the deed (half or less) if the mission is incredibly dangerous or if we simply don't trust you - along with the remainder of the gold after the mission is completed successfully.
 
* People who do not cough up will be killed on sight until payment is made.
 
* A meeting place will have to be arranged for the payment. This can be done before or after the deed.
 
* Jobs far from where the MG is currently (for example, if you want them to fight at Derby and they're at York) will make the price increase.
 
* The paid gold will be divided equally amongst the members (the ones active in the job, of course). When the number of gold does not divide equally the leftover amount will be given to the mercenary who did the most work - for example, if the job was to kill a group of survivors, and everyone killed one and one person killed two, the leftover gold will be given to that person, although everyone else will get a reward too. Mercenaries who repeatedly do nothing will have their share of gold revoked until they work for a living.

We (not currently, but soon will) have branches in all the outsider towns, who handle business in those towns. For example, the Durham branch deals with Durham bounties and contracts, and also the business in the surrounding areas. This is still being implemented as the MG has recently reunited. We're still picking up the pieces.

History

It's a long history. It's had it's ups and it's downs. Right now it's on an up after a very long down which was preceded by several ups.

Goals

The Mercenary's Guild strives only to make money for its members. Our goals of being bad-ass and controversial have already been achieved.
