The Beginning (By Raimus)

In the beginning there was Falacer. Founded by my brother Scribecaste, the clan consisted of many great names and a lot of team spirit and the will to kill. I remember the day I joined Falacer when my brother asked me to. I met a bunch of people who I thought where very impressive people. I was still in addy. I was pure and training to wear rune at the time. Scribecaste started something that caught on and we had many great members such as phule, Topdogg75, Kweef, Lil Slayer, Blueonix, Spencerm(something numbers of something), Indigo Flame, Crunch Killa, and many higher level people who I cannot remember names and of course Me(Raimus) the uber noob.

Anyway how the story goes ... My brother lead Falacer bravely and valiantly. We had many great pk trips and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, as time went on, my brother came down with some problems and had an accident in real life. He in turn could not lead Falacer anymore. I was left with the task of leading this great clan. I was but a level 60 pure at the time and I didn't feel I was ready to lead a clan yet.... I tried for a time and things where going great! I just didn't feel ready as of yet to lead a clan. So I stepped down soon after the site was lost and so was Falacer lost also.

I then joined The Gladiatorz clan and many others followed me there...( I at the time didn't have any idea how much people respected me for being me and not for my level. I really appreciate the respect guys and still that respect remains to this day. You know who you are. Again you guys are always the heart of my leading abilities and without good friends and members such as all of MK, I, as a leader, would be nothing.)

I was initially denied to be in the Gladz seeing as how I only had about 65 hits at the time. phule and I talked and he decided to join the Gladz as well... With phule's impressive smithing abilities, the Gladz happily accepted him. phule made the stipulation that I would accepted into the Gladz if he joined. So began my experience as a member of the Gladiatorz clan.

Many followed phule and me to the Gladz such as Topdogg75, Kweef, Indigo Flame, Lil Slayer... We stuck with the Gladz for a long time. As a member of the Gladz I helped them fight in 2 wars. One was against Rsd. That day I saw Blaze Mace log in the middle of the war with Rsd as Me Topdog, Indigo and many others fought Rsd head on. Though their levels where higher, we fought with the might of a thousand men each! The war proved to be too difficult and we lost. After the war there was much controversy within the Gladz. Their leaders were quite arrogant to their members. Thus many members started to quit Gladz or were booted for speaking their minds.

Gladz were stuck in a downward spiral and Blaze Mace began to think of quitting. Therefore a new leader was needed and many tried out for the position. Of course the leaders of the Gladz put much pressure on phule to become the leader of the Gladz. phule felt the burden was too heavy and he decided he didn't want to be the leader of the Gladz. I myself was at 72 hits at the time and decided maybe it was time to try my hand at leading since this time I had more confidence in my abilities. The Gladz, of course, didn't give me the chance to show them that I could lead. I wanted to help lead the Gladz into a new and golden prosperous age! I never had the chance and as time went on they treated me as they did many others ... with a complete lack of respect and never believing that I was determined to become someone to remember and someone who could help a clan become number 1!

A few of the older Falacer members were booted from the Gladz. It was then that Indigo Flame started the Mystic Knights with the assistance of Kweef, Topdogg75, Lil Slayer and many others. The only thing that was left was to find a right hand man. Indigo Flame knowing of my abilities to lead a clan asked me to be his right hand man and co-leader. I requested the position of Warlord of the Mystic Knights. Indigo agreed and so the Birth of the Mystic Knights began!

I was a member of the Gladz at this time, but on the day I decided to become the Warlord of the Mystic Knights I planned to ask for an honourable Discharge from the Gladz. This did not happen due to the events that took place on that same day. Indigo Flame had told me that he needed me to help lead MK against a "noob" clan. Of course I agreed and was exited to be helping lead MK into its first war and to victory! As we headed out I was still unaware of who our opponents were. This lack of information and the following actions proved to be a very hard point of my RS career. As we came to the battlefield, I was confronted with an all too familiar enemy. The "noobs" that we were to face where none other then the Gladiatorz themselves! MK charged, and with the help of 2 members from BDK, went into the battle to decimate the Gladz and the people they brought, including Yamataka. So it was the first victory for the Mystic Knights! I, though, couldn't bring myself to attack the Gladz and due to my sense of pride and honour to my fellow clan members I couldn't attack MK either though ordered to do so by Gladz Leaders, Joe Jenninz and Acid Venom. I was shocked and waited and once the beating of the Gladz ceased I remained at the Greaters to be confronted by Joe and Acid. They where very angry with me and I told them if it would make them feel better I would let them strike me down and kill me for not attacking my friends in MK and for unwillingly betraying the Gladz. I was thrown out of the Gladz and branded a traitor. I didn't really like that part but life goes on... I started my new career as the Warlord of the Mystic Knights.

The Mystic Knights proved to be much fun with many active pk trips and a total domination of the wilderness. As we ravaged the wilderness our reputation as a strong clan grew and so did the clan itself gaining many great members. Indigo Flame started wars with people in the wild and we would rally together and go out to destroy our enemies and where successful in our battles winning back to back victories. After many battles, Indigo Flame decided he wanted to leave the Mystic Knights and quit Runescape. He decided there was no better person to take the role as leader of the Mystic Knights than me. I was honoured and reluctantly accepted after many attempts to get Indigo to change his mind and remain in the Mystic Knights and not quit RS.. The attempts failed and as a result I was made the Leader of the Mystic Knights.

I knew that to be successful I would need an active and capable Warlord. I decided to ask my good friend, Tnb, to become my right hand man and help me lead the Mystic Knights with a wise and active ruler ship. This proved to be a very good move as Tnb was one of the Greatest people to grace the face of Runescape. I, as leader of the Mystic Knights, appointed those who I felt would help MK prosper and grow as well as own the wild and defeat all enemies that stood in our path. I started to initiate wars on the boards known as scapeboard or rather tipit. One of my first wars declared on tipit was against the Mystic Crusaders who at that time I felt took a piece of our name and that gave me more then enough reason to call an all out war against them. Through much criticism and much flaming the Mystic Crusaders came out to face the Mystic Knights head on though many of their members where ridiculed for wearing addy in the war. The leader of the Mystic Crusaders came and fought against us valiantly but to no avail the Mystic Knights were just to powerful. We defeated the Mystic Crusaders through a brutal beating. I announced the victory and was ridiculed for it.

At about this time the BDK fell apart with this many of the BDK members were freed up and many joined MK. Though when they joined I let them know that in joining MK agreed to obey our rules. MK honoured our members we didn't kill our own members as the BDK did. Many of the former BDK members didn't like this at first but they accepted it and found that their brothers in MK became the most important as we all backed each other in times of need. This brought a lot more strength to an already powerful MK. The Mystic Knights where then without a doubt the strongest clan in Runecape with no equal. I knew this and started my campaign to bring MK to the top of Runescape to let everyone know that without a doubt that the Mystic Knights are the absolute best in all of rs.

The Gladz however were up to no good trying to talk about us and spreading many hateful rumours about us. I caught wind of this and many of the members of MK hated the Gladz so war became imminent. I saw that there was no way around this and war was the only option. I challenged the Gladz to a war and they agreed to have one against MK. So the war with the Gladz was set... and the day drew closer MK was training and preparing for the coming battle at a furious pace. Finally the day arrived and it was MK vs the Gladz. This was a glorious day a day that I will always remember as one of the Mystic Knights most glorious battles. I, along with such people as Panzer Pure, Abyss Worm, and of course many of the other loyalists to MK stood out in the wild awaiting the Gladz to come against us. They, of course, were late. I had received word that the Gladz along with some BK invited Random pkers to attack MK and low and behold people who where friends of Gladz but where also well known Rpkers showed up people such as Trupimp and pepsi24.... The Mystic Knights met these Rpkers head on and decimated them, foiling their dreams of stealing our amour and ran them back to edge... Then came the Gladz and BlacKnights they didn't come alone to face us and I felt this was dirty. MK charged into battle anyways and we decimated the Gladz leaving many green capes spread all over the wilderness floor. MK was working together in its prime and we were very successful. The Gladz are masters of trickery and tried to come up with the excuse that there where to many Rpkers. However we had already taken care of the Rpkers so MK was actually at war with the Rpkers the Gladz and Bk combined. Through much effort and bravery we came out on top! The victors of this battle! MK defeated a long time and brutal rival when Gladz were defeated. That was a day that I felt for me leading was at an apex. MK had done what Runescape Dinasty, but not many others had, we defeated the Gladz! So began the warpath MK set out on.

MK was on a high and started to yet again gain stronger members more and more. We went to many battles and had many wars day to day. Winning battles time after time. The legend grew.... Though there where forces working against MK out of hate and jealousy. These forces worked against the Mystic Knights hating us for the fame we where gaining but it was the rightful respect that MK deserved. I was asked to a war by Numnums the leader of KoS. I accepted and the terms where set there was to be no allies and only the 2 clans in a one on one war between MK and KoS. MK made many enemies of Rpkers who couldn't take MK alone. These Rpkers decided to help KoS against us. As well as many members of The Unholy Alliance ( of THE, BK, and Gladz) who wanted to see MK fall after we defeated 2 of their clans single handed. Numnums lied to me and gathered many people who where not even in KoS against MK. Many MK couldn't make it this day to the war that was one of our last wars in the first march of the Mystic Knights. I though being proud still went against the force that I knew we would not defeat we simply didn't have enough members of MK on and also KoS cheated and I lost all respect for Numnums for this action. MK lost the battle it was our first defeat and I felt responsible for this defeat for trusting my enemy to honour his word.

I felt responsible for this defeat and couldn't quite get over it. The burden was heavy and we had never lost a battle before that day. I had been outwitted and tricked and I felt baffled and humiliated. I didn't feel I could face the members of MK and I was utterly disgusted with the people who play Runescape. Instead of giving MK the props they deserved, the stink of jealousy rose and just got so many people to come against us. I didn't feel I wanted to play a game filled with such losers so I decided It was time for me to leave the game once and for all. I stepped down as the leader of MK and asked Tnb to take over. He of course didn't want to have to lead MK alone and many things started to fall apart inside the clan. The clan no longer really had a true leader just members. I wasn't very happy and needed some time away from RS which was hard for some people to understand. Many members started to lose faith in MK as decisions where made and things went into place... many things happened that cause MK to start fighting internally. This tore MK apart and many members left but MK itself didn't die out. There was still a MK but it wasn't the MK I knew though it was filled with many loyal MK members. Then Indigo Flame returned to try to take MK over again. In my absence, he plotted and did gain control of the Mystic Knights once again.....

But as time moved on, some of the members became hostile towards each other, the leaders lost faith and sadly, Mystic Knights was disbanded.

The creation of Mystic Dynasty (By El Eazy)

Mystic Dynasty was first started by Ganesha, Raimus, and X Dragon X. Some the people in this fine clan were from the old clan "Mystic Knights." Mystic Dynasty started off extremely small, with only a few members. At first it was meant to be a group of only 10 members that would player Kill with each other. There were going to be a mage, melee and Range groups.

The success of this small group began to build and it became a strong force with very active members. It had some very fine warriors, everyone was friends and could work very well with each other. Mystic Dynasty was creating a bigger and bigger impact in the Runescape world, more and more, you would hear the name Mystic Dynasty being mentioned.

'The Alliance' didn't like this new clan that was moving in on their territory. In particular The Gladiatorz didn't like this new clan at all. Bitter memories of the earlier Mystic Knights still haunted the Gladz nightmares.

Hatred escalated very quickly between Gladz and MD. A war brewed between these two new clans. With Gladz being a member of "The Alliance" a 4 on 4 allied war became the most likely option. The proposed 4 on 4 allied war was pided as follows:

The Mystic Dynasty Side:

Mystic Dynasty

Zeonic Force

Damage Inc

The Darq Syde

'The' Alliance:

Gladiatorz

BlackKnights

Clan Jaguar

'The' Clan

About a week before this war, Zeonic Force pulled out of the war, leaving Mystic Dynasty with only 3 clans. Because of Zeonic Force's neutral agreement with 'the' clan, They didn't want to be any hostility between ZF and 'The Alliance'. So they thought it would be a wise decision if they stayed neutral with both MD and "The Alliance".

X Dragon X became furious and he immediately declared war on ZF. now Mystic Dynasty had 2 wars on their hands. Things wasn't looking to good for MD, being 1 clan short and another war coming along. MD decided to pull out of the war between the Gladz, and was heavily criticized for this. To sort the out the situation with Zeonic Force, El_Eazy (The Mage captain of MD) and Raimus had a meeting with Supertitan and Lord Death. They negotiated neutrality with each other. At first ZF was reluctant to compromise, but after some heavy negotiation it was agreed that neutrality was a good option for both the clans.

The creation of the Golden alliance

The Golden Alliance, also known as "GA" was made up of 4 clans. Exercitum, Corruption, Mystic Dynasty and Clan Anarchy. These clans together was an extremely strong force and defeated 'The Alliance' on a number of occasions. Ties between Damage Incorporated and Mystic Dynasty became very tense with DI reluctant to continue being an ally with Mystic Dynasty. DI hated Exercitum with a passion and with MD as a member of GA ties between MD and Exercitum increased. Eventually DI leader, x Bigaboys x ended the alliance between DI and MD spectacularly by announcing it over during the middle of a war against 'The Alliance'.

The GA was at that time was considered the strongest force in Runescape. Damage Inc asked for an alliance with the all powerful "Runescape Dynasty". Damage Inc felt that the only way they would be able to defeat GA is if they teamed up with RSD, rumor has it that 'the' clan were also involved in this alliance but RSD declined DI's offer. After a few months in the GA, MD and Exer's members kepted getting involved in conflict with each other. Mystic Dynasty felt it would be a wise decision if they left the Golden Alliance and made an Alliance with Damage Inc. They did this but, it was extremely unsuccessful. On a twined player Killing trip, Damage Inc members turned against Mystic Dynasty's members and a slaughter took place. Mystic Dynasty felt that it would be good if they forgot about alliances with all other clans and decided to be an independent clan and fight for themselves.

The fall of Mystic Dynasty / The rise of the Mystic Knights

Mystic Dynasty continued onward with Raimus and XDX as co-leaders, and Epod, W Apostle, El_Eazy, and Stud112 in second command. This was a good group of decision makers and took MD though a lot of good times and rough times. Towards the end of the Mystic Dynasty's lifetime, MD was extremely active and had a lot of dedicated members and friends. Nothing external could bring them down. Tension was building though with the difference in leadership styles between Raimus and X Dragon X.

Eventually Raimus decided to move on and starting over would be the best solution. He asked a few of the most loyal and trustworthy friends and members in MD to help him do this. It was determined from the start that the new clan would be headed by a council and not a single leader. The Mystic Knights Council was set up as Ultrasmasher, pionex40, Yamataka, Shane2 and Stud112, with Raimus as General. Their goal was to lead Mystic Knights into a strong, healthy and respected clan. Mystic Knights was chosen as the name in honor of the ties to Mystic Dynasty and because of the name's history.

MD was split into 2 groups. X Dragon X's group and Raimus' group. X Dragon X felt that the bond between MD was amazing and that it should of never been broken. Raimus on the other clan felt that he wanted to create another clan and that XDX and Raimus should go their separate ways. Many people joined MK and many stayed at MD. The situation was often tense between the 2 clans and in particular between the members of MK and X Dragon X.

Mystic Knights began to increase in members and strong players. people in Mystic Knights tended to be very active and friendly. This has kept the clan very stable and strong. Sadly Mystic Dynasty, on the other hand began to decay, and XDX abandoned this clan. Jade Crimson was left to valiantly take care of MD. Eventually, most of the MD members, including Jade, joined MK and Jade closed Mystic Dynasty.

Mystic Knights has just began to be recognized as a strong pking clan and for its talented fighters and pk leaders. With the present addition of many high non-combat skill level members and an awesome website (done and managed by Ultrasmasher), the future holds great promise for Mystic Knights.

The rise in power of the Mystic Knights (By Matten) MK learned that a clan built out of hate did not last long. So they chose not to rebuild MK as a hate clan towards their mortal enemies, The Gladiatorz Clan. Instead the goal for MK would be a long lasting and stable clan build on honor and trust. Though skeptical for a long time, eventually even the Gladiatorz Clan was able to see this was true.

MK gained lots of loyal members, who all believed that MK has the ability to become the ancient force again that it used to be. After we had a stable membercore, it was time to let everyone in the world know that the Mystic Knights are back. We had almost daily fights against other clans that we almost all won with ease. It did not take long before MK already was again in the top 10 clans.

Problems in leadership

The Council existed out of Ultrasmasher, pionex40, Yamataka, Shane2 and Stud112, though Stud112 playing RS Classic, Council found him unfit to lead a RS2 Clan and demoted him to Elder. After a while Ultrasmasher suddenly stopped coming online. The Council had many problems to handle all the things with only 3 people and so after a vote, a long time MK member and Elder named Matten, was offered the rank of Council. He gladly accepted. Also an other Elder, named Telemichus, was offered the rank of lt. general, to be the right hand of the legendary Raimus. He accepted it as well and was greatly honored.

This Council would be 1 of the strongest Councils in RS, it still exists even to this day. The TDL warThe Council and Generals found it was time to give this new MK a war. After long searching a worthy opponent, they found that TDL would be a great and honorific opponent. We both had the same members total and we both agreed to the time and date for a war. The war was in a month. So every Mystic Knight began to train to be prepared for the upcoming war. Some weeks later Stud112 came back from RS Classic and the Council gave him the rank Lt. General as well.

As the war came closer, the tension between the 2 clans became from friendly to a more tensed feeling. There was lot in stake in this war for both clans.

Our generals were busy making warplans to bring out MK on top of this battle.

A week before the war, it became clear to MK that TDL mass recruited, though the TDL leaders denied this. The evidence was clear, TDL went from 90-220 members in 1 month, whilst MK went from 100 to 130. A lot of people who hated MK(XDX, catman2003) from old MD, joined TDL as well, just to war MK)

We continued the war and MK stood again against an opponent who cheated in a way. MK had a chance to win because we had a higher Hp-average than TDL, so it became a war of Quality vs Quantity.

At last the day of the war arrived. MK used the legion tactic, a revolutionary tactic in RS2. MK went up with 70 ppl pided in 5 legions. TDL brought 120+ ppl to the war. So in order to win, MK needed to kill 2 TDL for 1 MK death. As the war advanced we found out that in F2p and certainly cause of the RS2 combat system that quantity is way more important than quality nowadays. MK lost their war with only 15 TDL standing at the battlefield.

MK was furious because of the many flaming on MK from TDL members, even though TDL needed to mass recruit 130 people in 1 month. TDL leaders still denied this and MK just let it go.

1 week later, Tebo( a leader of TDL) left TDL because of a disagreement with the co-leader Trunx prince. He admitted publicly on tipit(the main clan forums) that he mass recruited over 100 members to win the war. Dark times for MKIn a while Ultrasmasher came back, but he found MK was not MK anymore and he decided to leave MK. We asked him if our site would be secure and not be deleted. He confirmed us he would keep the MK site up. Though after 3 days the MK website and forums were gone, and we never heard of Ultrasmasher again. Yamataka made with Raimus back-up forums, whilst Matten and Yamataka made the new forums. At this point the morale of MK was at a very deep point. It was very difficult to direct people to the new forums because we cannot say URL's in RS and not every member had MSN.

Suddenly Raimus needed time off RS because he had important IRL stuff going on. Telemichus was away for school stuff and Stud112 was not that active in total, so it was again the Council who had to take the burden to bring MK up again.

After the new forums were done, we could enjoy a new start for MK. Rebuilding MKBecause of the dark times, a closely knit group of MK members survived, we tried to rebuild MK from 60 members remaining. As time went on, we reached the 100 members and everything turned into hyperdrive. After 1 month we reached the 150 members again that were for 80% active. MK became fast a Top 5 clan, we had daily miniwars with alot of clans and on 9/10 we won the miniwars.

We reached in record time 170 members. At a point we were 1 of the strongest F2p clans to exist at the moment.

MK was back and running again, than of course Raimus, Telemichus came back from their inactivity. MK was running at their prime. Unexpected events in MKRaimus wanted to give Generals more power in MK, the Council agreed and made Raimus Warlord, Stud112 and Telemichus became full Generals. 2 weeks later, without the approval of the Council, Raimus declared war on Damage inc.(the strongest clan at the moment, an enemy who is believed to be undefeatable). Raimus had a personal hate towards DI and wanted to use MK, who the Council again had rebuilded, for his personal vendetta.

Raimus already had put us in a war, so there was no way to return for the Council. A few days after Raimus declared war to DI, he left MK for BDK. With a great unbelieve towards his actions, MK members started to hate their Legend. He left his homeclan for a clan that was known as BSers, hackers and all other bad things.

We were all deeply disappointed in Raimus, but in all other MK this would be the death blow, but surprisingly, the Council was stronger than ever and kept MK together.

Although many other clans who looked up to MK to have the guts to war DI, believed this would be the end of the MK vs DI war.

The Council did not cancel the war, and we wanted to face DI head on, the way of a Mystic Knight. The DI warMK felt stronger than ever, we were at this time the only clan who dared to face the might of DI. DI was to proud to take this war seriously. They thought MK did not stand a chance against DI. We were laughed at by DI. MK just kept stronger and stronger, 95% of MK was training hardcore for the upcoming war with DI. People gained from 4-10 combat levels for the war. The MK Hp-average rose from 82 to 85 Hp.

Anarchy, who thought MK was a clan that only could fight with their allies, wanted to show the Clanworld, that MK was not half as strong as the Clanworld believed. Anarchy wanted a 8-hours prepared miniwar. MK agreed to it. MK pumped up all the members they could get in 8 hours. 8 Hours later, we head out to fight Anarchy and prove them the strength of MK. Anarchy had gathered 50 ppl in their 8-hour prepared miniwar, MK gathered 75 ppl with 5 more Hp-average than Anarchy. We used again the legion tactic, we had 3 large teams. The 8 hour preparation war began. The war lasted exactly 2 minutes and 30 seconds, We decimated 80% of Anarchy, the remaining 20% fled. MK lost 7 ppl total in this war.

MK posted several videos of this war on tipit. We showed every clan, that MK is without a doubt a Top 3 clan.

Even more important was that DI saw this video, and suddenly took the war serious. The war with Anarchy showed to DI that MK is not a regular clan.

It was only 2 weeks till the already agreed date for the DI war. Suddenly x Bigaboys x(leader of DI)came back from inactivity and wanted to change every single detail in the DI war. MK refused to change everything except the time for a few hours.

DI became nervous because MK only became stronger and stronger. 1 week before the war, they started to post excuses on tipit, that only 25% of DI could come to this war and every thing is against DI. Although they accepted everything 1 month ago.

Flaming from both sides intensified. DI began to post fake pictures on tipit to lower the morale of MK. It did not work, they even needed spies on MK boards.

At last they agreed to the date and time set. Council had a strong feeling all the excuses DI made was just a big cover up IF they would loose. So if they loose they have the excuse of not many members attending.

At last they day of war was there. We had a turnout of 110 people, DI had 90+ppl to the war(that's 65% of their memberbase, not the 25% they said, what strengthened the feeling of a big cover up). MK fought valiantly and with great strength, but would not cope with the organization and quality of DI.

MK accepted defeat, but in ourselves we were the winner, they had to crawl back to make excuses and cover ups only because they were afraid of MK. MK had put an example to the rest of the world that DI is a clan that's not immortal and can be defeated.
