Greetings!
Ex Umbris (Out of the Shadows) is very excited by the launch of beta 3!
We are a “core” guild that will play the game for fun. We are not
casuals or hardcore. We will be raiding on a regular basis. We will
have members on all three continents in-game. Our members are currently
located from GMT -8 (PST) to GMT +2, (we will not be limiting
recruitment to these time zones). We are looking for mature, quality
players from the pre-release community. Our guild’s interest run the
gamut: Adventuring, raiding, crafting, diplomacy, harvesting, trading,
building a guild town, and ships.
We are working very hard on our web site, and lore.

Ex Umbris - Rules
Ex Umbris Raid Loot Rules
The basic tenants of eXu lore include:
-There is a Spiritual Force at work that selects people to have "the call"
-Ex Umbris is thousands of years old and has existed under a great
myriad of leaders and has built up an eccentric feel after all this
time
-The Ex Umbris "Vaults" were built thousands of years ago when a Dwarf ran eXu.
-Most of the previous generation are finding and selecting our characters and trying to continue the Order.
-Most members are spread out around the world doing what they can to make the "world a better place".
-"The Call" manifests itself as a driving need to get out into the world and make a difference.
We are a role-play friendly guild and have a role-play background that
we encourage members to add to, however we do not require any form of
role-play from our members.
We are still recruiting and now have a formalized application process. We require the following information when you apply:
1. How would you describe yourself?
2. What is your favorite race to play? Why?
3. What is your favorite class to play? Why?
4. What spheres do you plan to participate in? (adventure, crafting, diplomacy, harvesting, trading.)
5. Describe your play style in Massive Multiplayer On-line Games.
6. Character names and classes?:
7. Main character?:
8. Starting location?:
9. What brought you to VG?:
10. How did you hear about Ex Umbris?:
11. Do you have an ExU sponsor, if so who?
12. Closest time zone for playtimes (GMT ?)?:
13. Have you ever been in a guild before?
14. Describe your experience with your guild(s).
15. Have you ever served as a guild officer? Other positions of responsibility?
16. Member of any other guilds in VG?:
17. Vanguard is a group-centric game and we plan to group a lot. Does that fit your play style?
18. We are not a hardcore raid guild. Do you like to raid?
19. How much do you plan on raiding a month?
20. Do you role-play?
21. Have you read the guild charter?
22. Do you understand the loot system we will use for guild raids?
23. What are your requirements for a guild?:
24. What are your dislikes in a guild?:
25. Do you have friends and family you are hoping will come join this guild at a later date?
26. Do you have any questions for us?
If you are interested in applying for guild membership, feel free to stop by the site and post in our applications forum!
Note: We fully support the Vanguard NDA. NDA violating information is not welcome in either our public or private forums.

We want to stop by and say hello! Many quality gamers have joined us since our last up-date and we have room for more.
We are a core guild that will play the game for fun. We are not

have members on all three continents in-game. Our members are currently

If you are looking for a pre-launch guild that has a diversity of members from around the world, you are welcome to visit Ex Umbris.
We are nearing the hardcap size for our guild. Our original plan
was to close open recruitment at Beta 5 but we may decide to end
enrollments before then. When we freeze our membership we are going to
be revising our recruitment policy. No new members will be added to the
guild until a month after launch.
The details of our new policy will be revealed later but now is the
time to act if you want to be a full member of Ex Umbris at launch!
_________________
(PST) 11/30/06. Anyone who applies after this time will be in a holding
pool until a month after launch. We will still be accepting friends and
family of guild members since they have a sponsor. We will also be
accepting beta testers (don't tell us) who arrange for a guild member
to sponsor them.
The new recruitment rules will be posted before Nov 30.
