Since our formation, we have made rapid advancements in our clan's infrastructure, government, community, and memberbase, and continue to do so on a daily basis. We are a F2P and P2P clan, which means all players are accepted so long as they meet our recruitment criteria. We are a family. We work, play, kill, chat, and live together. From events to parties there is always something going on in our clan. Our clan chat is never empty, and there is always someone who will chat.
