A new guild type, simply known as a 'Guild' arrives.

Guild requires several things:

1. One Guild Leader and One Guild Council Member that are:
   1. Village, Folk or Aisling Bard, Philosopher, Wise One, Lorekeeper, Historian, or Persona.
   2. Active Respected Citizens
2. Two Guides that have guided 5 or more new Aislings.
3. The support of 50 Aislings in all.
4. 250,000 coins.

The Guild Leader and Council Members must maintain status as Respected Citizen or greater.

Each council member and the Leader may admit 36 new members each. The new member must be at least level 11 and registered.

That's not the only kind of guild there is. The 'Motley' has existed for years, and has easy foundation and maintenance requirements.

Aricin in Abel's Tavern, offers more details on both, and special features of both:

• Support: The foundation of a guild (all driven by players)
• Coup d'etat: Removing a failing guild leader.
