With the death of so many characters recently, I feel it's a good time to post this for people who are looking for character concepts.

At the moment, Clan Caermyn mostly needs people with fighting capability, people who will step forward and march into battle against Old Port.

Clan Aberdenn is doing well right now, and as a result the hostilities between Clan Caermyn and Clan Aberdenn provide interesting conflict to build upon for a new character.

You'll be brought instantly into a number of plots, and will certainly have no trouble creating a few of your own.

Here is what is expected of an associate of Clan Caermyn:

QuoteAssociation:

Associates (you) of the Caermyn are seen as pieces to be used in the many schemes and intrigues of the family. Starting out at the bottom, you will only gain repute through deeds. A Clan that values political scheming and profit, you stand most to gain by either overtly amassing resources or benefits for the family or covertly navigating the other powers of Mistlocke against each other so that their expense is Caermyn gain. You are left to yourself to build up your own reputation but in everything you do the family members are watching... and making a choice whether you are a worthy asset to the Clan.

Benefits as an associate member comes through cheap resting, bank accounts and political backing should you make note of yourself. If you rise in the eyes of the patriarch, you may well find yourself able to direct some dealings of the house.

And here is a bit of backstory that is pretty well known around Mistlocke.

QuoteThe Caermyns are notorious for their cunning and shrewedness, able to profit from the Ducats that flow into the Archipelago through trade and mercenary charter. Darker rumours have always followed the Caermyn- tell of piracy, and of dealings with slavers from the Old City, although the loudest Aberdenn blusterings have always come to nothing due to the wisdom of Caermyn blood. Its household is loose and prestiege within it depends on personal reputation, where the flow of coin dictates standing within the Clan. Members of the sprawling Clan rise to dominance through merit, with the heir chosen not by the status as firstborn, but instead is chosen in the will of the former Patriach.

The Caermyn have always believe Mistlocke to hold a unique and auspicious destiny, and see themselves as suffering in the shadow of the old Aberdenn claim to settling the Village. Over the years, they have enrichened themselves and have driven the Aberdenn from Mistlocke several times - only to see these fortunes reversed due to the bloody vengeance of those of Donyarth's blood. However, during the War of Succession Menaster sided with the Amnian Principia, and came into great wealth and prestiege as a result. He has remained a steadfast proponent of foreign investment in the Village, much to the chagrin of Arthur who accuses Menaster of seeking to become a puppet ruler for the Count in distant Old Port.

I resent your implication that Aberdenn has enough people because there's no such thing as too much of a good thing ;)

But, yes! The dynamics between the two rival clan families plays out best when there's a good number of people in the both of them so hop to it people!

Clan Caermyn is for those who want to get rich quick and become somebody fast.

It's the faction for you.

Menaster's gone, but the crow still sees! A patriarch to rise, a tyrant to overthrow, a heritage to restore! Flock wildly to Caermyn today and get your intrigue on.

Promises of very interesting times and trials come ahead of us. I'd step in for the ride if you're the thrill seeking kind of person

This faction is full of potential for awesome things right now.

I recommend it highly. Join in for an interesting era in EfU history!

Need an uphill struggle and experience some ethical ambiguity? Caermyn's your best bet. This faction is rife with inter-clan politics right now, and can accommodate a nice variety of concepts above and beyond the typical mercenary scum. Give it a shot.
