Hello purifier and welcome to the Band of the Red Hand!! I\'m Katiora, an Recruit Liason Officer for the Cavalry. I hope you enjoy the time you spend here with everyone!! We\'re really a laid back and fun org to be in ;) course the best of the Band is the Cav, but you will learn all of that in due time :D Anyway *hands you a bandy* that\'s the Cavalry\'s official brew and the best. Corki, our esteemed Marshal General will be dropping by in a bit to give you the official spiel.. I hope to be seeing you around!

Welcome in the Band !

Now, remember, the capital crime in the Band is spilling any of those. So be carefull ;)

 

Cheers!

Thanks for the warm welcome! :lol:

 

*Holds on to all of the drinks while twirling, whilst trying not to spill*

 

I'm ready to have some fun and good times with you all.

Hi Purifier!! I'm Tiren, I'm also a new recruit - so I look forward to seeing you in RR Weeks! :) *kisses your cheek and hands you another bandy* Its great to have you with us hun! ;)

Welcome Purifier! Enjoy the games! Enjoy the drinks! Enjoy the company of other Banders! Enjoy your stay!

Froix's words are very wise. Follow them well! ;)

 

Anyway, time for the spiel! Now, hold on tight as you go on a ride out of this world!

 

*official spiel*

 

Welcome purifier! An email explaining important information about the Band is currently sitting in your inbox! Take a read!

 

Basically, the Band of the Red Hand is the Travel and Music ORG at DM! By signing up for the Band, you have joined the successful Raw Recruit Scheme. By signing up for the off board site, you will be able to experience the whole process to the maximum! The new Executive Officer, F Horn of Valere, or I, will assign you to one of the three Regiments (Archers, Cavalry, Infantry) for a week, where you will be given various tasks to perform, hoping that you will get a picture of what time in each Regiment is like. After a week with each Regiment, you will be asked to pick your final choice of a Regiment.

 

While being a Raw Recruit, there is nothing stopping you from earning points like any other Band member. Points lead to promotion within the Band. Below is a list of possible ways to earn points:

 

- writing reviews on places to visit/holidays you have been on

- writing reviews on music albums and gigs

- replying to other people's reviews and asking questions

- composing Jak O' the Shadow verses

- getting articles published in our monthly newsletter, The Hornsounder

- monthly roll call in the Band's private boards at DM

- any DM project we may have (currently a Battle Project, so speak to Horn if interested)

- and much much more I cannot think of right now!

 

If you complete your time as a Raw Recruit within 3 to 4 weeks, you will get a special award (called the Raw Recruit Stripe) which you can add to your siggy as well!

 

While being a Raw Recruit, you get 4 free strikes. This enables you to break Band Law 4 times without being punished my the Redarms, the Band's own police force. If they see any Law breaking, they will either drag you up for a trial or give you a fun spot fine to do (usually 100 lines of something witty). Channeling is a major no-no in the Band. As is spilling Battle Brew, our beloved drink! Once you have used up your 4 strikes, or join the Band's ranks officially, you will face the full force of Band law like any other Bander does!

 

Of course, we are not all about working 24/7, as we do let our hair down now and then! We are famous for our bar brawls, which happen frequently! Expect one soon! We also like jokes, tales, funny pictures - things that will make us laugh!

 

We also have many games - at DM, which can be found in the stickies, and on the off board site as well! Also, take the lessons to learn our ORG Game, based on the luck of dice! You get the selected weapons of your division, and can fight anyone in the Band! It is currently being revised, but the ideas will all be the same!

 

If I have left anything out (which I expect I have!), do not hesitate to ask questions! Someone will be able to answer them for you!

 

One last thing...

 

*hands purifier a Marshal-General's Special Battle Brew*

 

CARAI AN SHEN AN CALHAR!!!!!

Yay! More members!..

Congrats on joining the best org on DM! ^_^

 

 

I'm Odette! You'll probably see me around somewhere at some point in time. ^_^

 

Here! Have another flaming shot! ^_^

 

*hands over a flaming shot*

Nice little siggy there, Odette!

Aww!.. Thanks Corki! Ijust made it today! ^_^

Greetings, Purifier! The Earth says 'hello!'. When I was fresh meat with the lovely ARCHERS, I was drunk for a week, and I suggest you join in on that (like I did with the ARCHERS) :lol:

*passes brew*

mmmm! Isn't it a nice day to be an ARCHER, don't you think? Ahhh...rcher...nice.

Hey, what's that over there? Oh, it's an ARCHER! They're just the coolest, y'know. The Californians of BOTRH, know what I mean? Yeah.

 

Mrs. Canty

corp. ARCHER (to da bone)

The currently LOA'd Danya's ickle liwwle sister

(what reasons did she give to you? She told me she was so damn sick and tired of you guys! Haha! I suggest we punish her when she gets back!)

 

 

 

 

:twisted:

The problem was, she had to drink for a week to stay that way... If she would have joined the infantry she wouldn't have had to drink so much! and yet she could have Much more too! :P

 

12th with the infantry!

 

And last i knew, Danya was only LOA'd from the band... she's still 'round elsewhere.... *sniffles* Poor Miss... :(

welcome to the band purifier, have a flaming shot (archer drink) on me! :D

My sister Danya says: ''12th_Regiment, you bad boy. Go punish yourself by inserting a hot poker in whichever bodily orifice you may prefer. Conditions: it has to be below the waistline, and it has to be done as soon as you read this. Don't dissappoint me. Miss Danya''

 

And I was drunk cos I was having a good time, by the way. I like to drink. Makes everyone so pretty, and it makes me so loose. *passes Purifier more brew*

Danya's SISTER

:lol: That hurt! I had no poker so i had to improvise... :roll: :lol:

:lol: Banders go through the think and the thin tougether! :D

 

DOH!

 

uhh... no pun intended... :P

Welcome Purifier!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
