We are a Guild Wars 2 Gaming Guild, founded on May the 18th of 2012 by Judit and Ron (Veni and Hardist). We are a friendly, social, mature, helpful and active guild, currently 50 members strong. If you wish to know more about us, then you can find all information you need in this post.
What is the “Touch of Darkness” exactly?
We are a Guild Wars 2 Guild, consisting of around 25 members at this time. Since nobody can play everyday, we have around 10 – 15 members online during the evenings (19:00 CET – 22:00 CET). We do not like overkill, so having more than 40 people online during the evenings is a bit too much for us, but we are still looking to expand our guild to at least 75-100 loyal members.
Mostly we play PvE, PvP, Dungeons, and World vs World together. We level together, group up to go through some dungeons and simply join a zerg in WvW or have some fun of our own. This is what we are playing mostly. sPvP is not something we are currently that active in, but anything is possible, and if you wish to set up your own sPvP Team within our guild, that is no issue at all, since there are people interested in it, and also playing together.
Yesterday we had a big guild meeting and we decided to move from Underworld to Aurora Glade. We also had a big cleanup, kicking over 30 members from the guild, because they either were not active, or they did not care about the guild and/or it’s members. We need people to be involved, solo players should play solo. So if you are a solo player, we aren’t the guild for you.
What can The Touch of Darkness offer you?
As with most guilds, we promise a lot of things. But unlike other guilds, we keep those promises. We are friendly, mature, active, social, helpful and above all, respectful to each and every of our members. Also, we do not recruit the character, we recruit the player behind the character. I also know this is a much heard phrase, but we actually do care about all our members. After we recruit you, we have a private chat with you, explaining what we’re all about, telling you what we expect from our members and we will check if we all have the same mindset and goals. We always keep in touch with you, we will never make you feel lonely or bored in our guild. And guaranteed, our guild is drama free.
You will be a recruit for one or two weeks at the most, and we will make you feel welcome in our guild during that time. We will also know pretty fast if you are suitable for our guild, but ofcourse everyone needs some time to adjust and such. If you need more time, please do let us know prior before joining, so we can keep this in mind.
We also have our own Guild Manager included within our forums/website now, which is still being tested to kill all the bugs. We used to have the Manager as a seperate website, but now we have integrated it into our forums. Check out some screenshots here:

What are we looking for?
We are looking for like minded players to form a “family-like” guild. We want everyone to know everyone, so we expect our people to mingle in the guild chat every now and then, and interact with others, in-game and outside of the game, on our forums. We feel a game is much more enjoyable when you are playing together with friends, so in this guild, you truly are not a number, but we do care. Our motto is: Quality, not quantity.
Anything else?
I have explained the basics which there are to know about our guild.
