Heavy Metal Bards [lml]

Were you bummed out for at least an entire week after Ronnie James Dio died? When you hear the name Al Gore, do you think "oh that guy married to the awful PMRC lady?" Have you ever had online discussions about the greatest riffs of all time? Did you randomly draw pentagrams and/or Slayer logos on your folder in high school? Do you still do it? Have you ever said ridiculous things like "well, I love gore metal but I'm not a big fan of gore grind" and really meant it? Can you never take Tom G. Warrior seriously after Cold Lake? Did you almost name your cat Blackie Lawless? (ok maybe that one is just me)

If you answered yes to any of these, or even chuckled because you knew what they meant, then I have the guild for you:
Heavy Metal Bards [lml]
http://my.uosecondage.com/Status/Guild/1321

Guild activities:

Little to none whatsoever! Probably none. I suppose we could farm together or something like that, but I actually hate farming with a bard so it seems unlikely for me at least. Perhaps we could have a drinking night at a bar where we discuss important issues such as: (my answers)
- Maiden: Di'Anno vs Dickinson? (both!)
- Bon Scott or Brian Johnson? (Bon!)
- Thrash metal or death metal? (both!)
- Testament's best album? (legacy!)
- Priest's best album? (stained class!)
- That one Milwaukee Metalfest you drove 6 hours to just so you could see Vio-lence (duh!)
- OMG IMPORTANT THINGS (yes!)
- OMG THIS PROBABLY WONT ACTUALLY HAPPEN WTF? (indeed!)


Guild requirements:

- Have a metal or hard rock related name (my discretion)
- Be a bard of any sort (provo, entice, peacemake)
- Your bard must play either the lute or the drums!

Also:

- You DO NOT have to be good at UO in any way
- I do not care at all what other guilds you are in or what else you do in UOSA
- I do care if you use racist, sexist, or homophobic language in forums, irc, or in game. Sorry losers!

So if you have a bard named Lemmy or Yngwie or Euronymous or Phil Lynott or Vic Rattlehead or Overkill or Nuclear Assault or Seventies Scorpions or if you are planning on making one with a name such as these examples... [lml] is here for you!

Wait... there's more! Heavy Metal Bard guildmaster Edward T Head searched the lands for the most epic and monumental house he could find to carry the mighty stone of [lml]. It has been found. The closest thing to an amazing metal album cover he could find... the house on top of the waterfall!

Now fully decked out for UOSA's sweetest guild... the guild house is covered with band posters, a pentagram for all that is grim and evil in metal, and of course a METAL chest.

Image

What will you get out of being a Heavy Metal Bard?
(as if you haven't been convinced already!)

Uh... I don't know. A totally sweet guild title? The knowledge that you are in the most epic and monumental guild in UOSA. Being that [lml] doesn't and probably won't do much of anything, numbers are really not that important. We will be totally sweet whether we are 2 or 20. That said...

What are you waiting for... PM me already!

Evil Chuck would be a most welcome addition to our battalion of bullet belt clad bards.

I was torn between the two. I should have significant progress made on the "Kiske" character by next week. I'm at the house limit so I'll need a bit of time to figure out how to switch things around before I am able to make him. Great idea btw.

Yesterday I saw a player named Kai Hansen in Britain. Excited, I chased him down to hopefully recruit him into our army of denim vests over leather jackets . Unfortunately he was not a bard so not cut out for [lml].

We will never NOT be recruiting new Heavy Metal Bards. Are you ready to rock?
