Clan of the Forest
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

It is an honor that you've decided to enter this clan's domain.

Please, make yourself at home, and let me explain what we have to offer.

The clan's goal. . .

Would you like a cup of herbal tea for your stay? Or maybe a peice of bread? *Hands you a cup and a selection of roots to blend.* I personally recomend licorice root or the chamomile rose, both are very sweet.

Now, let's get to it. I understand you have an interest in the element of Earth, above any other? Well our clan is devoted to those with such a fancy. Don't you just love that feeling of calm, when you can hear the echo of a wooden flute, while sitting on a fallen tree, just dazzled by the forest and it's natural wonder? It is our goal, to put you in that feeling even when you're not there. A bright and beautiful nostalgia.

We also, when in battle, would like to focus mostly (though not completely) on rings based on Earth (rock, dirt, leaf, etc) attacks and healing.
And if the battle system designers throw in something such as a 'combine stuff to make potions' option, then that as well.

I guess you could say, in essence, we're a druid clan.
We just don't fallow the title much.

Our rules. . .

There are a few rules besides our world laws (T.O.S.) that I, and others, would like you to abide by if you decide to join.

One, I am sorry, but this is an Earth elemental clan. Which means we will not take in users of Water, Fire, and Wind. In fact, we see these other elements as SOMEWHAT bothersome.
Fires, they burn our land and creatures to nothing but ash.
Waters, they drown our plants and keep them from feeling the warmth of the sun.
And Winds, they knock down trees with a furry and anger, causing nature much pain.
But, so you know, we do NOT hate the other elements. Earth could not exist without them; Just in the fact that the rich could not exist without the poor.
So we are at this time, neutral.
Our clan will not war with a Water, Fire, or Wind clan unless they start it.

Two, you must be literate. If you wish to partake in discussion, atleast type correctly. A typo here and there is okay. But obnoxious "txt-tlk" is NOT.

Three, please keep your clothing somewhat Earth/nature based. It just makes us feel more as a unity, instead of a bunch of people randomly thrown together.

Fourth, please do not PM me with anything related to the clan.
Post it here that way we stay active. This includes membership requests, questions, banner pics, etc.


F.A.Q. . .

Do we HAVE to have an Earthy avy?
It is preferred.
As stated, a theme in each memebers' appearance would make us feel more as a unity.


If I join your clan, could I join others' as well?
Absolutely!
However, they can not be clans of a different element.


Will you turn your clan into a guild?
NO.
Although many other clans are to make themselves seem more official, there isn't enough benefit that would make we want to.
(Especially because I've already put so much time and effort into this clan thread.)
You get the option to buy subforms, and create multiple threads. Wow. /Sarcasm. Unless we get 1000+ members, the guild forum would move too SLOW. And one would only waste time browsing thread after thread after thread in case they miss something, when they COULD just browse one big clan thread like what we have here - With all the banners, links, announcements, and etc on the first page.
Besides, I've owned a guild once before, and I am 100% positive when I say they're more work to actively run than one thinks.


Can I bump?...
PLEASE DO. */Beg.*

Is this a "Nature/Animal Protectors!" clan?
NO.
While some members may have that mentallity, that is NOT the point of this clan!
I, for example, LOVE to hunt. My favorite food is actually elk steak.
IRL, my career is modeling and have zero problem modeling fur.
If you do, and you can't stand the idea of hunting or wearing fur, etc, then that's awesome.
But please do not think that joining this clan would be joining some kind of PETA-like organization.

Head of the Clan :
X.a.p.h.a.n (Xaphy/16/F)
I am no tyrant, or atleast I try not to be.
I'm very easy going and intelligent, and I will listen to every member's opinions.


Leadership Descendant:
[ Ta-kun =D ] (Ta-Kun/16/M)
To gain this rank in the clan, you must show me responsibility, you must be willing to help others in the clan or those curious about the clan, and you must be active for when I'm not around. If something causes me to go inactive for a long time, this person will take my place as leader. But to get this clan position, you have to earn it. You can't just ask, "Hey, can I be this please!!?!???"

Banners and Icons. . .

Member or not, if you'd like to make a banner to be posted here out of pure artistic creativity, and the joy of seeing your work in others' signitures/profiles/etc, then go ahead and post the image here in the thread.
You don't have to worry about coding it, I'll do that.

Here are some banners I made.

.MP3 Music Downloads:
While battling or venturing across the Gaia MMO world, you may find it fun to listen to music.
Here is where I will place music I think you may like for your listening pleasure.
(Download what you can when you see it because it may not be up tomarrow. Savefile.com automatically deletes all inactive uploads after 30 days.)

I know that playing music on a forum page is against the T.O.S.
I do not know if giving out links to free music downloads are.
I would assume not, because the music is not coming from GaiaOnline, it is only a link.
It's like giving out a link to an R rated youtube video.
While the video is rated R, it is not a part of GaiaOnline, which is rated PG13. So giving out this link becomes OKAY.
HOWEVER, if for some stupid reason, giving links from GaiaOnline to music is against the T.O.S., please let me know.


Only Time - Enya
Song Length: 3:38
Filesize: 4.2 MB
Album: A Day Without Rain
Genre: Celtic
Mood: This song is very beautiful. It is soothing and her voice will put you in a very calm state. This isn’t the kind of song you should listen to while in a fight, but maybe travelling with a loved one or friend. Very fitting to a forest atmosphere.

One by One - Enya
Song Length: 3:56
Filesize: 4.8 MB
Album: A Day Without Rain
Genre: Celtic
Mood: Also very fitting to a calm forest atmosphere. Makes you wonder how Gaians could ever war with each other. The amazing use of violins compels you to listen to more.

The Maid That Sold Her Barley - Déanta
Song Length: 2:40
Filesize: 3.1 MB
Album: Celtic Wonder
Genre: Celtic
Mood: Calm.

Siúil A Rún - Reeltime
Song Length: 3:42
Filesize: 4.3 MB
Album: Celtic Wonder
Genre: Celtic
Mood: Calm and very, very sad... It can bring you to tears if you're not happy and listening to it... Especially if you've lost a lover.

Dúlamán - Atlan
Song Length: 3:44
Filesize: 4.3 MB
Album: Celtic Wonder
Genre: Celtic
Mood: Happy! Extremely HAPPY! ^_^

Make Me Bad - KoRn
Song Length: 4:21
Filesize: 5.2 MB
Album: Korn's Greatest Hits
Genre: "Fuzz"-Metal
Mood: Intense. "You're going to die and you know it" kind of song and yet you keep fighting.

Coming Undone - KoRn
Song Length: 3:19
Filesize: 5.2 MB
Album: See You On The Other Side
Genre: "Fuzz"-Metal
Mood: This is the kind of song you listen to if you're in the middle of slautering. Blood and organs are everywhere, yet you've got this look of pleasure in your eyes. Despite them being innocent creatures and/or people, you keep grinning and killing. This is your theme song.

Evolution - KoRn
Song Length: 3:37
Filesize: 4.1 MB
Album: Untitled
Genre: "Fuzz"-Metal
Mood: Read the description for "Coming Undone". This song's mood is almost exactly alike. I would consider this one more if you feel like you're going insane with rage though. Like knowing, but letting, your passion for death get in the way of your rational logic. It's like a bad addiction you want to stop, but can't.


Clan Art:
If you have some art for our clan, member or not, go ahead and post it!
I'll place it here.
