Welcome Home RR Feral

[Taymist]

Welcome to the best Org at DM, Feral, you're gonna have a blast here with us.

 

Now lassie, have a few brews and settle in. The Marshal General will be here soon with the Official Spiel and its liable to knock your socks off, blow your brain away and scatter various parts of your clothing and anatomy around the Band. ;D

 

I'm Tay, the Executive Officer, in charge of Recruits. So any problems, just shout me. Look forward to seeing you for your Recruit Training.  :D There's a pm in your inbox now with some important info.

 

*hands over 4 or 10 brews*

[Odette]

Hello Feral!  ^_^  I'm Odette, I'm one of the Archers...

I haven't welcomed anybody for a while so you have my apologies if I'm a little rusty!

 

 

*throws confetti!  YAY!  Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand (also known as the Best Org Ever!)

 

Yup, so now you get to sit back and relax as all the welcomes come rolling in.  Now, while you're at it.. Have some more brew while you wait for the much anticipated Official Spiel that our esteemed high commander Corki will give you.  Reading it is the highlight of day.  It makes my knees wobbly. *nods*

 

*hands over 5 or 11 brews*

 

 

[Arrandion]

Hello Hello Feral !

 

Have fun and drink a lot of brew - it will help you to cope with the most insane minds of the entire DM population - simply Band of the Red Hand. Your quest is about to begin .... just wait for the official spiel.

 

*hands 3 or 7 brews*

 

I just like prime numbers *wink*

[Talya]

Hi Feral...welcome to the Band...you're sure to have fun here

 

I'm from the infantry the best regiment in town ;)

 

*hands Feral a brew or 6*

 

I think she may too drunk to even hear the Spiel ;D

[Feral]

*would say "thanks for the warm welcomes" but is unconscious thanks to all the brew*

 

I need to learn how to hold me drink. :D

[Corki]

Well, you had better shape up fast! ;) Now, are you holding onto everything? And that does include your Brew! As here it is - the official spiel!

 

*official spiel*

 

Welcome Feral! An email explaining important information about the Band is currently sitting in your inbox! Take a read! Also check your PMs too! ;)

 

Basically, the Band of the Red Hand is the Travel and Music ORG at DM! By signing up for the Band, you have joined the successful Raw Recruit Scheme. By signing up for the off board site, you will be able to experience the whole process to the maximum! The Executive Officer, Taymist will assign you to one of the three Regiments (Archers, Cavalry, Infantry) for a week, where you will be given various tasks to perform, hoping that you will get a picture of what time in each Regiment is like. After a week with each Regiment, you will be asked to pick your final choice of a Regiment.

 

While being a Raw Recruit, there is nothing stopping you from earning points like any other Band member. Points lead to promotion within the Band. Below is a list of possible ways to earn points:

 

- writing reviews on places to visit/holidays you have been on

- writing reviews on music albums and gigs

- replying to other people's reviews and asking questions

- composing Jak O' the Shadow verses

- getting articles published in our monthly newspaper, The Hornsounder

- posting in the monthly roll call in the Band's private boards here at DM

- any DM project we may have, which includes our Quote Project (speak to Amavia and Angyl)

- and much much more I cannot think of right now!

 

If you complete your time as a Raw Recruit within 3 to 4 weeks, you will get a special award (called the Raw Recruit Stripe) which you can add to your siggy as well!

 

While being a Raw Recruit, you get 3 free strikes. This enables you to break Band Law 3 times without being punished by the Redarms, the Band's very own police force. If they see any Law breaking, they will either drag you up for a trial or give you a fun spot fine to do (usually 100 lines of something witty). Channeling is a major no-no in the Band. As is spilling Battle Brew, our beloved drink! Once you have used up your 3 strikes, or join the Band's ranks officially, you will face the full force of Band Law like any other Bander does!

 

Of course, we are not all about working 24/7, as we do let our hair down now and then! We are famous for our bar brawls, which happen frequently!Keep an eye out for one! We also like jokes, tales, funny pictures - things that will make us laugh!

 

We also have many games - at DM, which can be found in the stickies, or the Lottery set up in our Dicing with Jak O' the Shadows board, which you will see once you have signed up for the private boards here at DM. There are also several games on the off board site as well! Also, take the lessons to learn our ORG Game, based on the luck of dice! You get the selected weapons of your Regiment, and can fight anyone in the Band! We'll give you a practise fight so you can get your bearing until you are ready to challenge a Bander. Also look out for our festivals of various games using the dice roller and ORG Game. There are many staff members for the Game who will be willing to help you out.

 

Once you have signed up for the private boards, you will also be able to participate in our lottery game, which takes place in the Dicing With Jak O' the Shadows board. It is a lot of fun, and your winnings can buy you various goodies!

 

If I have left anything out (which I expect I have!), do not hesitate to ask questions! Someone will be able to answer them for you!

 

One last thing...

 

*hand Feral a Marshal-General's Special Battle Brew*

 

CARAI AN SHEN AN CALHAR!!!!! [/colo

[Odette]

*knees wobble*

 

Pretty good, huh.

 

Oh, and if you're too drunk to handle any more brew, I can take that Marshall General's Special Battle Brew off your hands if you want.  *nods*

 

 

[Feral]

I think I can handle one more, thanks. *downs special brew then promptly falls over* Or maybe not.

[Corki]

*chuckles*

 

Watch out for Odds, Ash and Froix - they are always on the look out for trouble M-G Brew...

[Ashandarei]

*carefully siphons out the remaining MG brew from the mug while Feral is out cold*

 

what? beware of us? but we're about as innocent as innocent gets!  ;D

 

 

Translation: We're very untrustworthy when it comes to matters of MG Brew. Please don't leave any untended when we're around or you'll discover its no longer there within a matter of seconds. Stealing someone else's brew of any kind is against Band Law so if you witness this anywhere, do make sure you report us to the Band's Redarms as soon as possible.
