| ============================= Greetings and thank you for taking interest in the guild!3656 BBYTHE BIRTH OF A CORPORATE EMPIRE......A time before the Sacking of Coruscant the business of trade was rife, with many businesses competing for particluar trade routes between various star systems. The swift and brutal attack from the Sith Empire however left traders in fear and unwilling to leave the comfort of their planets to travel into deep space. During this time a newly-formed trading company stood tall above them all. They were simply known as the Galactic Trade Commission. The republic applauded their willingness to enter the farthest reaches of space to deliver vital supplies to systems that were cut off from the rest of civilization, especially during these harsh times. Thier bravery it seemed knew no bounds. By the time the Treaty of Coruscant was signed the companies that were once too afraid to commerce with outer region planetery systems decided now was the time to re-emerge, knowing full well that although the attacks were still happening, they had decreased rapidly. However, strange occurrences started happening in the vast world of intergalactic business. Trade routes were being blocked by unmarked ships. CEO's of major trading companies were being assassinated by unknown assailants. Shipments were mysteriously dissapearing. The illegal spice trade had doubled in a very short time indeed. Even pirates on the Outer-Rim territories had ceased attacking vessels so frequently. Something just didn't feel right. The only thing that seemed to stay continuous was the growth of the Galactic Trade Commission's empire, which at this time appeared to be going from strength to strength, almost seemingly eliminating all competition within a heartbeat. It was at this stage that the various republican committees of trade alliances started to get suspicious and were forced to ask themselves the question... ..."Was there more to the Galactic Trade Commission than meets the eye?"....
WHO ARE THE GALACTIC TRADE COMMISSION? The Galactic Trade Commission are actually several guilds within a guild. On the outside we moonlight as one the galaxies leading authorities in trading, however this is just a masquerade for something far more sinister. For some time now the GTC has been an underground crime syndicate with dealings in every type of illegal activity that you can think of; be it smuggling, extortion, arms dealing, etc. In short, if it's illegal then the GTC probably have a hand in it. WHAT KIND OF GUILD IS THE GALACTIC TRADE COMMISSION? Primarily the GTC are a roleplaying guild and we plan to start on a server that can accommodate these needs. We also have a common agreement that not everyone wants the same from roleplaying so with that in mind, we are going to cover all forms of it (Light, Medium and Heavy). We also want to cover all aspects of the game, so expect to see lots of PvP (Player versus Player), PvE (Player versus Enviroment), RvR (Realm versus Realm) and of course Crafting. We also want to cater to the needs of the solo player so if thats your cup of tea, then so be it! WHAT IS OUR ALIGNMENT WITHIN THE STAR WARS GALAXY? For obvious reasons we're not actually aligned with either the Galactic Republic OR the Sith Empire. This is because we are trying to work inbetween and in some cases against the two factions. If the game actually lets us do this then we'll just have to wait and see. Because of this neutrality, the Galactic Trade Commission is very untrusting of outside interference from Jedi and Sith alike. This in turn means that any 'Force-Sensitive' characters are generally frowned upon and will not be included amongst our ranks. GUILD HIERARCHY The guild heirarchy is set up much like you'd expect with that of a crime syndicate. Within the guild we have a setup of three gangs, each with their own colour to distinguish their roles within the guild. Each of these gangs is separated by class, however they all work to achieve the common goals of the GTC. At the top of the hierarchy is the Vigos of each gang, followed by the Commisioners, Operatives, Employees, and then recruits.THE CODE OF SILENCE Obviously with the nature of this guild, secrecy is of the upmost importance whilst in-character. If you decide this is precisely the kind of guild you are looking for, then you will be asked to follow the code of the guild and not talk about the affairs of the guild to any non-members.
OTHER RULES The other rules are stated elsewhere on the forum, but our main goal is to have fun and become extremely successful in our ventures along the way!STILL INTERESTED? In a nutshell we're looking for friendly, mature and loyal members to muster our ranks and if you like what you've heard, then what are you waiting for? Get on the forums, start posting and come join in the carnage!.......
