Here is the deal! The Spellguard is casting off its Dominion ties, and as a result we anticipate that they will be despised and hunted by practically all of the major factions. We are still very eager for fresh blood (especially mages), but it will not be for the faint of heart. Recruits need to be disciplined, competent and preferably comfortable in PvP.

Send a PM if you would like to discuss your concept.

Needs more elite, LE mages IMO

Shhh!

[Some background]

Some background

Some years ago in the Underdark, the Spellguard were a faction of wizard defenders, notorious for their secretive and nefarious behavior in the defense of Sanctuary. In the final days before the mass-exodus, the Spellguard finally wrested control of Upper Sanctuary and established a de facto autocratic rule. Civil war ensued, the Spellguard were defeated. They cut themselves off from Sanctuary using a powerful force field erected by the mysterious Dunwarren "Machine". After the mass exodus, the Spellguard are the only faction who have been able to survive the harsh new conditions of Sanctuary as they work to complete the Machine and realize its undisclosed purpose.

...now a Spellguard Agent and his companions have emerged from the Underdark on some mysterious mission for their organization. After a phase of reconnaissance, they have finally announced that they will be establishing a sub-faction on Ymph.

The goals of the Spellguard Surface Cell (which we can talk about openly!) are:

• Going head-to-head with the Conclave in all of its own domains, with the intention of aggressively eclipsing its magical authority in the colony.
• Expanding the Surface Cell and its authority.
• (Ostensibly) serving the Duke and protecting the Dominion.
• Uncovering the island's colorful past.
• Organize an eventual trip to Sanctuary to report personally to the Spellguard.
• Good old-fashioned Spellguard subjugation.

Although they are beneath the authority of "Cell Agents" (wizards and sorcerers only), "Spellguard Associates" receive a place of respect and importance in the Surface Cell, and these can be of just about any class. There are just a few limitations:

• Any alignment can try to join, but you'll be a lot more successful in the organization with a LN / LE comportment.
• Paladins and druids definitely don't work, nor do clerics of non-lawful or good-aligned gods.

I'll see you all in-game!
