looking for a newbie friendly rp guild
Hey Xanctus,
The Charter Vanguard has been having role play in one form or another since its inception. We’re currently running twice a week RP parallel stories on Discord chat that occasionally cross over. We find the format better than in-game RP because we can collect the log of exactly what went on per episode then go back and refer later.
You’re most welcome to join us for either RP or both, or you might even like to participate in the guild’s ceremonies that involve the entire guild (RP and not).
We have entire sub forums on our guild forum dedicated to each role play, and threads on each character. Do check us out for more information:

heya just gave the site a look. I got a solid grasp on english but it ain’t my native tongue so i gotta ask. What do u mean with rp stories from your discord bieng parallel and crosing over?
I take it that all is done on discord chat including all interactions. So your characters wouldn’t actually be standing in whatever place they are on tyria? but it all text based?
also those weekly rp events are they mandatory? cause if i decided to join and u and or the leadership have decided to accept me. I might be a bit hesistant to join immeadatly in a seemingly rp event that is up to date with current canon events from what i can read. or to fully have my character take part in something which i take is also scripted to some extent.
speaking of which are they any tutors there that could guide me through it in the beginning?
all in all it seems quite interesting, espically the ceremonies and how your guild came to be.
Let me try to address each question:
“What do u mean with rp stories from your discord bieng parallel and crosing over?”
I meant there are two ongoing stories, one of them with 2 players, the other with 5. Each player controls 1 character or a handful, depending on how many they can handle. Beginners should probably just control 1. Sometimes the 2 characters from the first RP meet up with the second RP, and then they split off again, depending on what happens in the story.
“So your characters wouldn’t actually be standing in whatever place they are on tyria? but it all text based?”
We used to do in-game role play, but we’ve been trying out Discord recently. When it’s on Discord, we tend to type in paragraphs, like a novel style – An Example:
“I wonder what’s going on” Sigrun mused, too focused on the crowd to realize Arben was talking to her.
Two Vanguard soldiers stopped by Sigrun. One of them had a concussion of some kind, his hair matted with blood, looking a little disoriented. The other had an arm under is shoulder, bringing him back to the city. “An attack… the separatists…” said the Vanguard between breaths.
So in this case, one person is playing Sigrun, one is playing Arben, and the Vanguard can be used by anyone for story purposes.
“those weekly rp events are they mandatory?”
No they are not. You’re welcome to not participate, or watch as a spectator, or come in just for a bit, like a one episode thing, or stay for the long run. It’s all up to you and what you’re comfortable with. We’re most glad to guide you in what you need to catch up with the plot. Most people who’re coming in want to spend 1 or 2 episodes spectating first, that’s completely reasonable.
Throw in an application if you’d like to try it out. Will be easier to explain in person than on a recruitment forum like this. At the worst case if you don’t like the role play, you can just operate as a regular member :P
