Laws of the Land
Selling
Learning the
art of making pastes, potions, and scrolls takes much time and
dedication. It is therefore requested that they are valued according to
this and not only to the price of the ingredients. In particular, the
pastes of vitality and spirit are extremely powerful. In order to
secure the availability of the secret ingredients used for these, a
minimum price has been set at 2500 gold pieces for a one charged paste.
Pastes of the spirit containing three or more charges are particularly
powerful, and must be sold according to the pricing rules. Selling
below this price will be subject to harsh punishment. Monks are free,
and indeed encouraged, to charge more than the minimum price for these
items. Also, no more of either of these pastes may be sold to a group
or individual than can be carried at the time. Doing so will also be
subject to harsh punishment. When hunting in groups monks should be
very mindful of these restrictions and should handle pastes with
caution and discretion. Members of this guild may not enter into
contracts concerning pastes of vitality and spirit beyond the immediate
sale of these items as described here.
When a monk
mixes a pigment sold within the guild with an item that is not sold
within the guild, the resulting item must be sold for a minimum of
10,000 gold pieces. If all of the components of the finished item,
including the pigment, are purchased within the guild there is no
minimum charge.
Guild items,
weapons and armor in all forms, are for guild members only. Giving or
selling monk items to those outside the guild is strictly prohibited.
Anyone caught doing so will be subject to severe punishment by the gods
and the guild. Similarly, items sold behind guild level portals are for
those of the appropriate guild levels. Lastly, in regard to items,
herbalism recipes and formulas for making pastes and elixirs are to be
treated like personal quests and not to be distributed to others.
The mentor
program is open to all members of the guild, both teachers and students
alike, for personal growth and for teaching honestly the traditions of
the guild. The Karma Points system has been created to keep track of,
and reward, all personal contributions to the growth of the guild.
The three
Dojangs of the guild, the Kwon, the Haikushi, and the Daisho, are open
to all members of the guild to work towards the growth of the guild.
The Bushi's of these Dojangs will take on projects based on the advice
of the guild and all are encouraged to help the Bushi's with the
completion of these tasks.
Titling will
be done through the teaching/mentoring program but can also be granted
for specific reasons. Each program has Path specific titles that will
be granted upon completion of certain tasks. Titles may also be earned
through the Karma Points Program. Also note that titles given by
Heroes/Immortals will not be changed unless requested by the
Hero/Immortal. Titles are always at the discretion of the Guild
Officers and may be granted or removed for great feats or great ills at
any time.
There are many
mounts within the guild, each with own specific benifits. These are
obtained by progression, dedication and determination. The spiritual
mist, is a gift of the soul and mind, and as such is to be earnt
through other means. It is possible to obtain this, by showing your
dedication to the guild, upon joining our fold. To do this, a monk
should approach a Guild officer, and ask guidance.
Guild officers
have the ability to summon members back to the guild. If you are lost
or in trouble and do not have a guild ring, you may request a guild
summon patiently and politely from a guild officer. The guild officer
retains the right to refuse such a request. Also, do not make being
guild summoned a habit; always carry a monk's guild ring with you. (And
a ring of recall for a backup)
The teaching
of our Martial Arts, Herbalism and Spiritual Karma outside the
Monastery walls is explicitly forbidden by the Charter. We have been
punished in the past for our transgressions, let us honour the Divine
Beings with our renewed trustworthiness.
Note:
These policies were set forth by the Guild master, whose decisions are
final. Any suggestions, changes, feedback, and criticism are always
welcomed. May Kali grant you peace of mind, body, and soul and guide
you in your quest to understand yourself and the path you must walk.
