________________________________________________ }{ }{ {} An in-door life is less poetical, {} }{ And out of door hath showers, and mists, }{ {} and sleet, {} }{ With which I could not brew a pastoral. }{ {} But be it as it may, a bard must meet {} }{ All difficulties, whether great or small, }{ {} To spoil his undertaking or complete, {} }{ And work away like spirit upon matter, }{ {} Embarrass'd somewhat both with fire and water. {} }{________________________________________________}{ What are poets for, in such an age? What is the use of poetry? Gleemen are the traveling minstrels, bards, buskers, and storytellers of the Age. Their signature patchwork cloaks provide them welcome and acclaim wherever they go. The role of entertainer is not an easy one, and the trade is not for the weak of mind, body, or spirit. But for those few whose passions for enlightenment and enjoyment keep their feet always moving forward and their eyes always looking to the horizon, the trade can be a fulfilling and rewarding one. To gain entrance to the guild of those most honorable souls, the following steps must be undertaken: -Send your character background and description to the Guildleader. Once they are approved, you will be recognized as a seeker of the guild. -Your background should be relatively comprehensive and include not only where your character comes from, but how and why he intends to seek out training to become a Gleeman. Note - this may include a lack of a current in character desire to pursue the profession if you wish to have it be "unplanned" by your character. -Your background may not include any official training toward the patchwork cloak without prior approval from the Guildleader. Advancement within Gleeman is accomplished from within the guild, not from without. -Once approval to seek the guild is granted, you will need to obtain sponsorship from two active members of the guild or the Guildleader directly. -This does not require "Gleeman RP", necessarily, since at first your character should not really have the performance accumen to support performance RP. Much of the sponsorship RP might be obtained with alts of active members, so remember that in addition to being performers, Gleemen are also the keepers of many disguises and secrets. Always RP at the highest level of your ability. -Once sponsored, the Guildleader will speak with you to add your character to the guild and provide an introduction to the syllabus and expectations, both in- and out-of-character, of members of the guild. See the Gleeman Guildleader or the Guild Immortal with any questions, and happy seeking! |
