The Blackfang Brotherhood is a player made guild that has it roots back
to the mid-90's with a few college friends playing a text-based online
game called a MUD (multi-user dimension/dungeon) known as
Arctic
MUD. Arctic MUD is a true PvP game as are the roots of the Blackfang
Brotherhood.
The name comes from a Guild in an older game known as Runequest, a pencil
and paper roleplaying game, in which Blackfang Brotherhood was a thieves
and assassins guild. Credit to the naming suggestion goes to Atilius/Ravana,
one of the original college friends.
Unfortunately, it was relatively short lived as the interest of
the friends waxed and waned and we sought new ways to amuse ourselves.
The Blackfang Brotherhood did not re-emerge until the beginning
of 2002 when we started seriously playing
Dark
Age of Camelot (DAOC). Here we adventured in the rugged land
of Midgard on the Guinevere Server. After about 2.5 years of playing
DAOC it was time for many of our members to move on to
World
of Warcraft (WOW) starting the Guild almost immediately in November
of 2004.
We currently have a solid Guild presence on the Argent Dawn realm/server playing
the Horde Faction with approximately 70-80 members. We've taken part in all of
the Raid content WOW has to offer. We even had a PvP crew running on a regular
basis. But the overall game design of WOW has not held our attention as we thought
it should.
A few of our
old schoolers have gone back to DAOC to pass time until
Warhammer Online comes out. In DAOC we play in Hibernia on Gareth Server (Classic)
and have approximately 20 members actively defending the Realm. What can we say, RvR is where it is at!!
The Blackfang Brotherhood is ready for WAR!!!!!!!!
