Description

Company of the Iron Crown is a casual, laid-back kinship which values maturity, service, and generosity.

Alliance

Company of the Iron Crown has an alliance with the kinships The Brave Companions, Clan Foamingbeard, and Khazad Fundinul by way of a user chat channel for the purpose of coordinating fellowships, raids, and other special events.

Recruitment

Minimum Age: 13+ (Unless playing with parent or guardian)
Preferred Age: 22+
Minimum Level: 15
Preferred Method of Contact: In game
Requirement: Participate in a fellowship with kinship members

We do not openly advertise membership opportunities and prefer to select potential members after having spent time playing with them in a fellowship.

If you have not played with us before and would like to join the kinship please /tell or send mail to any kinship officer or the leader (see below) in game and we will try to arrange for a fellowship with members around your level.

Once invited, new members remain at the rank of Recruit for 30 days as a trial period, after which they are either confirmed and promoted to Kinsman/Kinswoman or dismissed from the kinship if it isn't working out.

Membership

Members of Kinsman/Kinswoman rank or higher may have any number of alt characters of any level in the kinship although they are required to update their player note indicating which alts characters are associated with which main character.

Members who exhibit exceptional service to the kinship and continued generosity and selflessness may be selected by the leader and existing officers to be promoted to the rank of officer.

Members who have not been online with any of their characters for 90 days will be demoted by one rank and again for each subsequent 90 days until they are removed from the kinship. Veteran members who have been in the kinship for at least 1 year are exempt.

The rules are common sense, if you are immature, selfish, rude, inconsiderate, annoying, etc. you will be warned and then expelled from the kinship.

History

Pending.
