Posted on: 2009-02-04 01:43 in Virtue
Name: The Codex
Currently Recruiting: Accepting new members.
RP Level: RP-Intensive
PvP Level: Casual to none
Theme/Concept: A secret society who works in relative anonimity to subtly shift the balance of power. The Paragon chapter is one of several around the world, all dedicated to making the world a better place through precise, critical strikes.
Activity: Approximately 20 over the US, European and Australian timezones
Requirements for Membership: Fill out an application on our site.
Leadership: Tipscout and Phaize
In-Game Contact(s): @Lion-Hearted and @sadronmeldir

URL: codex.guildportal.com
Coalition(s): Currently in a closed coalition with SCORPIO and looking for more.
Name:Vigilantes of the Night, Justice Legacy Associates
Currently Recruiting: Both are recruiting.
RP Level: RP-friendly, 50/50 IC/OOC chat in SG and coalition channels. RP is encouraged, but not mandatory in either SG.
PvP Level: None. PvP is not an SG activity. Individual players may engage in PvP if they desire.
Theme/Concept: Vigilantes of the Night is a darker vigilante themed SG with an emphasis on heroes who wish to mete out justice with their own hands. An eye for an eye type deal. Justice Legasy Associates is a more superhero-themed group. Emphasis on modern aged heroes such as the Justice Leage from DC comics, or the X-Men and/or X-Factor from Marvel comics.
Activity: Mostly East coast, but all time zones are welcome to join us. Currently, we are slow, due to being brand new and all. Join and help us build!
Requirements for Membership: All AT's and levels are welcome, no interview/application is required. Just an eagerness to play in SG mode as much as possible and have fun.

Coalition(s):Most of our coalitions are IC chat, we will specify OOC chat with [[OOC]] in our chat if it's not IC. Currently coalitioned with Eternal Midnight and Kingdom of Horizons among others.
Name: Paragon Youth Corps
Currently Recruiting: Looking for new members, coalitions with other teen groups.
RP Level: RP-intensive, but OOC chat is alright.
PvP Level: Almost zero - we only PVP for story purposes.
Theme/Concept: You've heard it all before - we're your standard teen group. We're self-managed, and have a laid back attitude.
Activity: We currently only have a small number of active members, but activity is daily, if somewhat random. Weekends are the best for more intensive RP/events, however.
Requirements for Membership: Your character must be a teen. (Though this rule is stretched a bit - we accept up into the 20s.)
Leadership: Assembled Girl, Psykera
In-Game Contact: @IanTheM1
Out-of-Game Contact: IanTheM1
URL: VirtueVerse and Our Forums
Coalitions: Several other teen groups, with names interchanging in my memory. Some are less IC than others.
Other Details: We have a fully functional and RP-accommodating base. We have no prestige goals/requirements, the base is effectively complete.
Never surrender! Never give up!
Help keep Paragon City alive with the unofficial City of Heroes Tabletop Role Playing Game!
Five Minutes to Midnight: Paragon and Rogue Isles Divisions
Currently Recruiting: We are a new SG, and while we have a small core membership, we are looking to expand. We are always looking for interesting, intelligent, mature players.
RP Level: Medium to well-done. This is an RP group. Furthermore, many of the members enjoy (and prefer) writing fiction for their characters. The emphasis on fiction is important. We are looking for consistent, immersive, realistic RP. However, we wont boot you for occasional OOC lapses, and we enjoy getting to know the people beyond the characters.
PvP Level: As an SG, we do not PvP though we have members who enjoy it PvP events can be available by request, if desired by members.
SG Concept
IC: Five Minutes to Midnight is a Super Group and Villain Group whose explicit purpose it is to prevent the greater disasters; from nuclear war to the Greenhouse Effect, to the greater magical threats, it put before it as a goal nothing les than the greater preservation of the world, and mankind.
We dont care if, on the way, youve robbed a bank. Neither do we care that youve saved an old ladys purse. We look for individuals of a greater worldview and wider scope, those people who would be willing and able to do whatever it takes for the purpose of the ultimate greater good. Ours is a larger, and much heavier, responsibility than stopping the next heist or saving the next dumpster. Ours is also the understanding that petty crimes, sometimes even violent crimes, do not necessarily create monsters, and even those who rob banks, or destroy innocent dumpsters, may be responsible individuals with an eye to the future.
This is not an easy, nor a pleasant job. Its sometimes messy, often tedious, quite often it doesnt sit with the standard morality code. It requires flexibility of mind and an ability to do what is necessary, whether pretty or not. It is not suitable for the gentle temperament, nor for the sentimentalist. But someone has to do it and we are that someone.
OOC: The group exists in two incarnations; the Paragon division, and the Rogue Isles division. Both work towards and for the same purpose, and share the same leadership (though that doesnt mean they always see things eye to eye). We encourage crossover of members who wish to create redside/blueside alts, but we do not necessitate it. It is entirely plausible to have some members in one branch and not another.
We are looking, generally, for the kind of heroes and villains who would be willing to take unorthodox paths to achieve their goals, and cooperate with the other side to do so. The group usually looks for the kind of characters for whom their primary weapon is not necessarily their powers or firearms, but their minds, their initiative and personality. We expect members to act independently; the leaders prefer to keep a light touch.
Requirements: There are no AT or level requirements, and no real background requirement so long as the character fits, or could potentially fit, with the overarching theme. Though the SG/VG is affiliated with the Midnight Squad, membership in it is only preferred, not required.
We do employ an application process that will involve either posting a biography, going through an in-game interview, or both. We expect a certain level of activity in that we dont want to see characters left abandoned for a year but most members have a life, and we wont require particular sign-in periods.
It I important that new members be active on our website forums. Much of the coordination for events like TFs or SFs as well as player requests, is done via the site, due to the different time zones in which several of the members are located.
Activity: The SG has a core group of players and several of their alts. It is still small, but growing and, obviously, each new member brings in more activity and team options. Several of our members play on different servers, and we have established a global chat channel for the purpose of keeping everyone in touch. There are RP meetings every other Thursday, at 10 PM EST at the Midnighters Club, and we usually have peak play times during the weekend.

Taking Care of the Multiverse
Name: The Defenders of Paragon
Currently Recruiting: TDOP is accepting new members.
RP Level: RP-friendly
PvP Level: Casual
Theme/Concept: The Defenders of Paragon are like the JSA. We are comprised of the best of the old and boldest of the new. We pay homage to the excellance that is the comic book industry through the characters we play. It is because of this that we have such a wide variety of members and such a brilliant mix of superheroes on the team. We have members at all level ranges, and look to promote a roleplay-friendly family spirit in our supergroup.
The Defenders of Paragon are comprised of several in-game supergroups. All of The Defenders of Paragon groups function as a branches of a single supergroup for most game purposes.
Activity: TDOP membership extends around the world. There is seldom a time when you can not find at least a couple of members online. Peak-time for the group centers around early afternoon until late evening (standardized to Eastern Time).
Requirements for Membership: The primary requirement for membership is that the player can interact well with the rest of the group. Typically we require recruits to participate in "get to know each other" teaming prior to acceptance into the group.
Leadership:
Bayne
Korpershutz
Kozzma
Night Club
Red Switchblade
No-Show
Preferred Method of contact: Registering at our website and posting on our forums. Although meeting up with us in game is just as desirable.

-Paragon city mayor on the subject of the Defenders.
Paragon City is full of crime and villians. The city cries out desperatly for a hope, an answer, a defense from the evils that fill it. The Defenders of Paragon serve that hope and protect Paragon City. We shall use the powers gifted to us to there fullest extent to defeat evil wherever it exists. We stand for truth, justice, freedom, and righteousness. We are the ray of hope in Paragon City's darkest hour. We are The Defenders.
We're not a "clan" or "guild." We are Superheroes.

The Defenders of Paragon
Name: Hyperion Force
Currently Recruiting: Accepting new members of any level
RP Level: Moderate to heavy RP (IC chat unless specified by the usual conventions). Scheduled weekly RP events. Storytelling and RP by post is encouraged.
PvP Level: Individual basis; we understand some people enjoy PvP, and some people do not.
Theme/Concept: Hyperion Force is a group of heroes who have banded together in the tradition of the Freedom Phalanx and the Vindicators; the group has a number of continuing RP storylines in progress.
Activity: Currently about 15 players, active at various times during the US continental time zones (Eastern thru Pacific), during the evening hours. Thursday nights are usually the most active, as RP plot-intensive activities take place, as well as Sunday evenings, but some members can be found on most evenings.
Requirements for Membership: No minimum/maximum level; application on the guild web site (we're not tough, though); please let us know if you are inactive for a period of longer than two weeks. Keep in mind the RP nature of the group!
Leadership: Arc Tangent is the Executive Officer of Hyperion Force; other leaders include Stellar Protector and Mercurial Talon.
In-Game Contact(s): Global @Threadbare
Out-of-Game Contact(s): Arc Tangent on the SG forums.
URL: http://hyperionforce.guildportal.com; see also our Virtueverse entry at http://www.virtueverse.com/index.php/Hyperion_Force
Coalition(s): No coalitions at this time.
Other Details: Base is fully developed with teleporters available to all locations in Paragon City (including a Pillar of Ice and Flame for Flashback missioning). The SG's heroes are very much in the vein of the Avengers or the X-Men, so if you could not see your character among such heroes, you may decide we are not the right fit for you.
Name: S.C.O.R.P.I.O.
Currently Recruiting: We're always looking for new people interested in becoming involved in our ongoing group stories and events.
RP Level: RP-intensive, we're an incredibly immersive RP SG with mature themes (Violence/Realism)
PvP Level: Casual, we primarily RP PVP for some group events and have several members with an active interested in PVP.
Theme/Concept:
The Strategic Command Objective for Research, Protection + Interdictive Operations (S.C.O.R.P.I.O.) is an international, extra-governmental intelligence and security organization formed to meet the rising storm of exceptional threats beyond the usual scope of normal law enforcement and military forces. SCORPIO is dedicated to protecting the nations and peoples of Earth from terrorists and all technologically-advanced, extraterrestrial, psionic, superhuman, occult, paranormal and supernatural menaces, and often assists such organizations as Longbow as well as other 'super'hero groups in apprehending threats to national security and world peace.
SCORPIO's base of operations is located in Paragon City, considered by many to be the 'heart of the storm', but there are also regional offices in all the major cities of the free world (as well as a few secret bases in unfriendly nations). Although most of SCORPIOs operations are covert, the organizations existence is known to general public. SCORPIO even maintains public offices in several cities.
Activity: Incredibly active with over 50 active members and an active coalition, global channel, and rivalry.
Requirements for Membership:
Due to mature themed involving violence we request that members be 17 years of age of older. Members are required to be active within 30 days, 90 days with reason and all members are expected to participate in group events at some level. This include RP Missioning, stories, in game RP, or on our forums as examples.
Please check out website for more information or fill out an application to join.

RP Level: RP-friendly, RP-lite, and nonRP, /sg all at the same time! IC spatial
we really need interested people to join the SG

Theme/Concept: The theme of the SG comes from the animated series and manga NARUTO (Japanese comic) created by Masashi Kishimoto. Both the anime and the manga are ongoing in Japan at the moment. We tried to fit this SG into the Naruto story
but we had to change it a little. You can go to LeafNinja.com and you can read up on some Naruto Info
Read the SGs history http://cohaig.blogspot.com/2009/02/a...guardians.html .
Activity: The Leader is in Eastern Time Zone
and plays all day everyday

This probably doesn't belong here, but I'll update it anyway with a SG info, I think :P
The Supergroup Recruiting Fair is tonight, at 7pm CST, 8pm EST. Come on down to recruit, make coalitions, and have fun. >_>
Not even the cool breeze of an autumn day is enough to keep Bridgit Mathews from feeling the fiery vengeance of the last rays of a shortening sun as it sinks westward. Having spent the afternoon walking around most of Atlas Park and Galaxy City, she pauses against a telephone pole in Constellation Row and wipes her sweat-beaded forehead on her t-shirt hem - the epitome of ladylike behaviour as always. A nearly-empty roll of clear packing tape hangs off her belt, and she looks down at her ink-stained hands before her comm beeps softly.
"Mathews," she answers gruffly, flipping the comm open.
"Hi, beautiful." The warm bass of her husband, Justin Mathews, rumbles through the airwaves. "Almost done here in Kings Row. How about you?"
"Hi, handsome." The redhead smiles, squinting through her glasses to watch the sun sink down slowly before answering. "Yeah, I'm out of flyers. How about we meet for dinner? I'm starved."
As she continues on her conversation with the hero known as Mr Mountie, the last few motes of the setting sun's light catch the gold-coloured flyer she'd just finished taping to the pole.
It's fairly simple, printed on gold-toned paper, but it gets its point across.
Name: The Overbrookers
Currently Recruiting: A brand new supergroup looking for new members - we're small, but feisty and looking to grow! We're focused on creating a high quality RP environment, and our aim is to remain close-knit enough that characters can feasibly remember everyone's name and information about them easily.
RP Level: We are always IC, but that doesn't mean we don't talk OOC! Any OOC discussion is indicated by some form of brackets, or identification that it's OOC.
PvP Level: Minimal to none. Occasionally if a story calls for it, we'll venture into a PvP zone or arrange an arena match, but we certainly couldn't be considered too interested in PvP.
Theme/Concept: Although the above image link talks about what we're about, the short of it is it was founded, ICly, by two experienced heroes who were worried about brand new heroes and their lack of experience. Not wanting to quite hang up the cape yet, Bridgit and Justin have decided to offer a hands-on, quasi-educational and family-oriented environment to help and teach new heroes, as well as providing a home for more experienced heroes to pass on their knowledge as well.
Activity: Because we are so new, we currently have less than ten individual players in the group, but we are always looking for more like-minded players to create a fun, story-rich environment. Our players are mature, sensible and creative - but we have a silly streak in us too, and we all have wicked senses of humour!
Most of our players are in the Eastern Timezone, and we're usually most active after 5 pm during the week, and all day during the weekends (unless real life interferes). We're on the game every day, either on our Overbrookers characters or one of our others.
Requirements for Membership: Our requirements for membership are that you remain active - preferably at least logging in once a week for our SG nights. We encourage teaming with fellow members, and contributing to IC chatter on the channels. Please put some thought into your character and how dedicated you want to be to them before you apply to the group - we put our best forward, and we encourage you to do the same!
We require that anyone interested in joining The Overbrookers visit our forums and follow the application instructions posted in the Applications forum. It's easy, straight forward, and it will get you an interview with Bridgit and Justin to size up your fit for the group.
Leadership: Bridgit Mathews and Justin Mathews.
In-Game Contact(s): Bridgit O'Malley/Bridgit Mathews (@Sehkmet) and Mr Mountie (@Mountie).
Out-of-Game Contact(s):
Bridgit Mathews CoH Forums handle: Sehkmet
Bridgit Mathews Email: samuraikitty@gmail.com
URL: http://overbrookers.guildportal.com - The Overbrookers official website and forums
Coalition(s): None at this time. We may explore this option in the future - right now our interest is in the group itself!
Other Details: We are dedicated to creating a fun, immersive group environment through RP and story-telling both in game and on our forums. Creative writing is encouraged, and anything that encourages participation is always welcomed.
We ask that you run in supergroup mode whenever possible, and if you're new to the game, or need help funding your character, just ask either Bridgit or Justin and they'll be happy to help you with influence or anything else you might need.
Our base is small, and cluttered, and not half as beautiful as most groups - but it's a rented warehouse in Faultline being converted to a 'base' by two heroes and their friends, paid for out of their pocket, and done as a labour of love. Everything in the base has a function and an IC reason to be there, and we plan to keep it that way!
We currently have 'Overbrookers Night', every Thursday at 7:30 pm, where we mingle, run missions, RP and whatever else comes to mind at the time.
We do have a uniform, but it isn't mandatory and while we'd love to see everyone in our look, we don't require it.
If you'd like to learn more about our group, please feel free to contact us in game, out of game, or through our website!
Name: The Artful Dodgers
Currently Recruiting:
[1]accepting new members
[2]looking for other players/SGs interested in RP
[3]wanting to let others know you exist, etc.
RP Level: Generally, we are Story Driven Role-players. We accept all levels of role-play, from beginner to advanced.
Theme/Concept: Go ahead, ask yourself...
* Are you a teenager who's one step away from joining a gang or villain group just to get by?
* Do you wish there was a place that understood your Special needs?
* Perhaps you want to become apart of something bigger?
* Or do you just need a warm place to stay and some company along your way.
When teens develop meta-powers, they face many risks. Oftentimes these dangers leave them in need of rescuing from their own lives.
Does this sound familiar to you?
We're not just another group-home or community out-reach center offering an empty plate full of good intentions, because we know what it really means to be at risk.
We're your peers.
Come Join Us!
The Artful Dodgers
Home for Wayward Meta-Teens
Celebrating our second year as a super-group on VIRTUE!
Become a hero! The first life you save maybe your own!
Activity: We have a rotating cast of over 25 members, each with fun unique characters. We have players from across the USA and members can be found playing almost any hour, however, we "Peak" during Prime-Time Pacific. We also have a weekly Role Play night, usually Tuesday nights.
Requirements for Membership: Code of Conduct
The Artful Dodgers were established as a role-play super-group of friendly, helpful players who are expected to aid their teammates and remain active. With those goals in mind, the following bylaws have been established.
* Attendance - Members will be eligible for removal from the group if they are inactive for more than One Month without notification of extended leave. To be considered active, you must log into The Artful Dodgers website at least once a month, and/or you must play an Artful Dodger character in game at least once every two weeks. If you will be unable to log into the website or play in game for more than one month, please notify a Big-Brother/Big-Sister or Counselor. A leave request should include a basic reason for being gone and an expected date of return. If you are absent for more than one month without giving notice we will assume you have quit the group and will then be free to dismiss you from the SG as needed.
* Conduct - Be courteous to all players, both in and out of the SG. There is no reason to verbally abuse anybody. Racism, sexism, religious slurs and any other verbal abuse will not be tolerated. Do not grief, kill steal or otherwise cause problems or interfere with other players' enjoyment of the game. On a first offense you may get a warning but there is nothing stopping the officers from immediately dismissing you from the group. As a member of this SG you represent the group in the public eye. Please do not give us a bad image. Always respect other players and be civil.
* Power Leveling - Please do not ask anyone to power level you. This is considered poor conduct. We certainly wish to group and have fun, and leveling is part of this. If you require assistance please feel free to ask. However, if somebody offers to power level you (within the group or outside of it), it is okay to accept.
* Social Interaction - We are a community and as such encourage social interaction. Teaming up as often as possible is highly recommended. Chatting in the SG chat channel and posting on the forums is also highly recommended. This group is about friendship, fun, and role play. You can't have any of those if no one talks to each other. Role-Play is highly encouraged, but not mandatory. Please be sure to let your team-mates know if you are role-playing in order to prevent confusion.
* Level Requirements - We are looking for heroes of any level ranging, from 1 to 50 and back again! We are willing to SK or EX any player for a team.
* Archetypes, concepts - We welcome heroes of all types to our SG. However, we are a theme role-play group based on at-risk teens so playing one preferred. Also we accept players who wish to role-play guardians, concilors, or mentors to our group.
* Roster - All characters in The Artful Dodgers must be on the Roster on the The Artful Dodgers web site. Minimum required information is character name, origin, archetype, and global handle (complete with @ symbol).
Leadership:We are not "about" leadership, we are about story. We role-play, improve, and have fun. You choose your own level of involvement.
However...
We have four members, listed below, who are considered "Leaders" only to resolve any rare and unavoidable conflicts that might arise before, during, or after game-play.

Name: Paragon Universe
Currently Recruiting: Yes. Always looking for creative individuals who desire leadership roles, input or just want to have fun.
RP Level: Heavy to Moderate
PvP Level: Casual, RP driven
Theme/Concept: Four small superhero teams share a single extradimensional base of operations with a variety of solo heroes. Each team has its own raison d'etre, but the others stand ready to help in times of need. And now is definitely a time of need. The Legion is similar to the Justice League. STORM is an emergency response team of power armor users, secret agents, heroes for hire and scientists. Incognitus is comprised of magic users. The Strangers are gathering those new to our world to defend it.
Please visit our guild portal website (linked below) to see more detail on the subteams.
Activity: We have organized and led events 3-5 nights a week, with impromptu RP groups organized even more often.
Our peak hours are from 9-11 pm Eastern, with events often lasting until 1am. Weekend task forces are often in the afternoon.
Requirements for Membership: Only 3 unique characters in the SG (some of us have multiple avatars that are the same character using different powers). If you're gone more than 30 days without logging in or letting us know, then your character will be dropped, but you're always welcome back.
Any RPer can join the Independents. Joining one of the sub-teams requires the approval of the leader.
There are no level requirements, but if you're going to show up for an action-oriented RP event night, then it would be handy if you were at least level 5.
Leadership: We're an anarchical collective that operates surprisingly well on consensus.
Note: We are always open to new sub-teams. We have a fully functional base with lots of RP space. Small SG's looking for a home base are welcome to join.

[u]PvP Level:[u] Extremely casual and individually driven.
[u]Theme/Concept:[u] The Dauntless Reverie has been around since beta, and is a supergroup comprised of heroes whose lives have been touched by magic. They are multitudes: creatures of legend, descendants of the divine, visitors from fantastic worlds, tormented hellspawn, and students of the arcane.

[u]Activity:[u] Our prime time is predominantly North American in the evenings, and we have a weekly SG night.
[u]Requirements for Membership:[u] You have to be a good writer (this is more about the strength of your stories than the incidence of your typos!) and mesh socially with the crew.

Name: The Pariah Project (SG) and The Pariah Project Annex (VG)
Currently Recruiting: Yes!
RP Level: Let's put it this way... if you don't love RP, this isn't the group for you.
PvP Level: PvP is not a team activity for the Project.

Requirements for Membership: We have no minimum level requirements, but do expect your characters to be played often. We have a no-alt policy... one character per player.
Leadership: The Pariah Project is an egalitarian group, with no "leaders," per se. The group's facilitator is Dynamistress.
In-Game Contact(s): Dynamistress is your best bet blueside, redside would be Mistress Dyna.
