Hero Group Directory (May 2012 - Oct. 2012)
Name: Union Supreme
Currently Recruiting: Always interested in new heroic RPers
RP Level: RP-focused, 95% IC spatial, OOC channel provided for group
PvP Level: none group sponsored, left for individual taste
Theme/Concept: The Union Supreme general theme is one of Modern Age heroism with Silver Age sensibility in the vein of Kurt Busiek's Astro City.
Activity: Our main RP night is Tuesday starting at 9pm EST. We have East and West Coast players, so the 9pm is splitting the difference.
Requirements for Membership: out-of-game communication on guild forums (see web-site).
Leadership: Doctor Spectro is the current chairman of the Union
In-Game Contact(s): @davpa
Out-of-Game Contact(s): You can also get in touch with our officers from our website on the Roster page.
URL: http://unionsupreme.guildportal.com
Coalition(s): a few support guild coalitions, but no major groups
Other Details: We like to think of ourselves as a fun group that has a good "family" core of players that are always looking out for each other. We play Red and Blue side together and support each other with story ideas, RP interaction, and just a good laugh or two.
As for what we do as a group, we do a variety of events. We run Task Forces, Tips, and Missions as well as create our own in AE. Any mission we do is always in an RP context. We do not follow traditional IC vs OOC format, but rather we follow Continuity vs Non-Continuity in regards to missions.
Name: Silver Aegis
Currently Recruiting:
* We are recruiting for the time being.
RP Level:
*SG Chat is 100% IC
*Coaltion chat is 100% IC
*We have a global chat channel.
PvP Level: We do it on a very casual manner. Sometimes we do it to test builds in case one of us frequents those zones and sometimes its just for giggles and boredom :P
Theme/Concept: JLA-styled supergroup brought together to stand as a shield for Paragon City against all the evils out there. We do take in most characters that would fit a JLA-styled group.
Activity:
We peak in the evening, with 10-15 people on usually. Sometimes, we get really lucky and get 20+
Requirements for Membership: Very little. Just follow our charter that we will introduce to you when you join . We're a very relaxed group that wants to enjoy the game, our characters, and roleplay in general. If you can do that without stepping on toes or breaking our rules? You are good to go

Coalition(s):
The Axiom Guard
Battle Ready Organization

The Global Aegis
Other Details:
* We have begun moving into scheduling TFs/Trials (Eden, for example) and other such fun events. Saturday will be our first run of this.
* Members do run their own RP arcs for others to join in on and enjoy. In some degree, this is building up our 'universal' enemy. So far, we've had loads of them and they keep coming with lots of fun and work behind each one.
* Our six month anniversery is coming up and that is a big landmark due to the founder's history with SGs .

Other Details: A top 10 Super Active SG, we always team together and are super friendly. No Jerks Allowed. 21 Day log in rule.
"Serving as a beacon of hope in times of darkness."
Currently Recruiting: We're constantly recruiting and really trying to focus on bringing in the classic hero. (Tights/Capes/etc. A good, iconic look basically.)
RP Level: Heavy RP
PvP Level: Whenever members feel like PvPing
Theme/Concept: "Based on the orbiting space station known as 'The Lambent Dawn', the Global Defense Force is here to protect the world from any beings that seek to do it harm. The Global Defense Force was founded by some of the premier heroes from Paragon City and elsewhere on Earth with the purpose of creating a strong coalition of heroes that would be able to deploy at a moment's notice to any area on the planet that requires their assistance."
One goal is that when we have enough members, we'd like to form separate teams withing the SG. Each team will be tasked with protecting and monitoring specific regions of the planet. For example, one group would be tasked with deploying to urban environments if a situation called for their assistance. Our current teams are: Oceanic, Urban, Terrain, and Arboreal. Each team would have its own inclusive plots and enemies. For interdimensional threats or those from outside Earth, the entire GDF would be brought together.
Activity: We have a pretty good core group of players at the moment but are always looking to expand that. For the most part, people are on everyday; most during the evenings.
Requirements for Membership: Have a character that fits the above and fill out an application on our forums. It helps if you are a good RPer and are an active and committed member of the group. It would also be nice if we could get a couple characters from the regions or characters that have extensive knowledge of the above regions.

Group Name: The EYE OF HORUS
Server/Game: Virtue
Theme: Early 20th century pulp
Contacts: Grimstalk on Virtue, or @NoJusticeNoPeace
Background & Structure: Beneath the glittering spires of Paragon City lie shadows upon which the light of day dare not shine. It is here that only a terrible few take courage to tread the secret paths and byways of power, a dark cabal of Nietzschean Overmen whose path is illuminated by the wisdom of the all-seeing EYE OF HORUS!
We're looking for people who love the old pulps, and who understand the larger-than-life style of roleplay they entail: an admixture of hard-boiled detective novel, overwrought, Lovecraftian, purple prose, and dimestore comic books. In the spirit of the pulps, the SG - played as an elitist secret society bent on saving the world from itself through whatever means necessary - has a faux-Egyptian theme. Players are expected to create a pulp-themed hero or anti-hero, which means capes-and-underpants will not be in great supply. Roleplay should be fun but immersive, which means it's more about style than plotting soap opera character arcs.
We don't want a huge group, just a handful of people, each of whom can stake out her or his own personal schtick. We want everyone to feel unique - something critical to the pulp feel - and have a chance to share the spotlight.
Contact Grimstalk (an undead 15th century assassin-killing existentialist who refers to himself as the "Murderer Supreme," talks in the third person, and narrates his overwrought internal dialogue aloud), or send game mail to @NoJusticeNoPeace if you're interested.
Name: Celtech Inc
Currently Recruiting: Always. Any hero is welcome, and any villain is as well to join our identically named villain group. Those looking to fit into the company from an RP standpoint may need to work something out.
RP Level: RP rather encouraged, but not strictly required. Levels are very moderate to heavy. We use a OOC global channel.
PvP Level: Nothing hosted currently.
Theme/Concept: A tech organization forged anew from the remnants of a longbow seized villain corp. Celtech Inc now prides itself on expanding the knowledge of the world and using its research to back projects that help the world's many heroes do what they do best. This spans far more than just technology, however.
Activity: We host particular things every now and then, but it's mostly done according to a weekly recurring schedule. Tuesday for Tips, Saturday for Strike Targets. We have quite a few active and friendly members that are on daily, or very close to it. Members on mostly in the afternoon and evenings(PST)
Requirements for Membership: Nothing particularly strict is needed to get in. Simply arrange to contact me in game or use our website, and we can work things out from there.
Leadership: Dr. Hault is the current group leader.
In-Game Contact(s): @LtZerge, @Vashu
Out-of-Game Contact(s): You can contact us through our website.
URL: celtechinc.guildportal.com
Coalition(s): Five supporting groups. We're still looking to forge a larger network of active coalitions.
Other Details: We're rather new to this server so we're still forging an identity, but we look to be an active and content driven group of players that know how to cooperate and have some fun!
Celtech Main Site
My DA Profile
Name: Battle Ready Organization
Currently Recruiting: Actively Recruiting.
RP Level: /sg IC, RP-heavy.
PvP Level: You're free to participate in PvP if you want, but we aren't a PvP group.
Theme/Concept: Our theme is something of a Mystery Men meets Xavier's School for Gifted Children meets The Avengers or JLA. The idea is that BRO takes in the misfit heroes, the ones with truly strange, destructive or otherwise frowned at super-powers, and helps them become a functioning member of the superhero community - most of them started off as misfits, now they want to help other misfits.
Activity: At least 15-16 unique members. Activity level fluctuates.
Requirements for Membership: What we ask for is an elevator pitch of your character's concept, and we'll usually try to do some form of in-character interview before giving you your actual group invite. The officer who interviews your character will also try to answer any questions you have.
Leadership: Kasun, The Radiopath
In-Game Contact(s): @exclius, @It's Raining Fen (The Radiopath), @cenes (Ka'loni), @7im (Gnit), @OhHaiMac (Son of Consolation)
Out-of-Game Contact(s): You can reach me via my forum handle, but I prefer in-game emails and tells.

Coalition(s): Silver Aegis, Pariah Project, The Arcadium
Other Details:
Name: Fennec Enterprises
Currently Recruiting: No, restructuration taking place. We are not currently recruiting.
RP Level: Medium to high.
PvP Level: None(though pvp events aren't completely unheard of)
Theme/Concept: Sometimes doing good means doing good in secret, and for this reason Fennec Enterprises was born - which is, depending on who you ask, a computer company, or a front for the secretive Rapid Response Team. Just because they stick to the shadows, however, does not mean they aren't ready for a fight.((Group has heavy shades of Vigilantes on it, the fact that they stick to secretive doesn't mean the group is only meant for spy characters. All origins are welcome))
Activity: In the evenings from 6 to 11 EST are our most active hours, though people from the coalition are almost always online.
Requirements for Membership: Must be helpful, active and treat others with respect. No Drama Policy!
Leadership: Dorian Summers, Lady Omen, Rika Shaye, Galaxy Kitty

URL: dawnenterprises.guildportal.com
Other Details: We have been around for almost three years now, we share our website with an internal coalition for purpouses of forums and have different concept SGs in case you'd like to move alts around to a more fitting location. Our base has full equipment to help our players and we are currently starting weekly arcs to keep our RP on a good edge.
Name: The Protectorates
Currently Recruiting: Yes, we are looking for heroes to join our team!
RP Level: Medium-high level RP, will OOC global channel provided.
PvP Level: None.

Other Details: Base is currently functional but still under construction. SG mode is a definite plus in order to help with fleshing it out.
*Name: Wolfcry Division
*Currently Recruiting: Yes. We're always on the look-out for people to join us - although we are a heroic supergroup. Our heroes work to uphold the law from within the law, rather than dispense stabby-killy-anti-hero sort of justice.
RP Level: High. Everything is considered IC, unless there's a (( )) going on. We also have an OOC channel for general chatter.
PvP Level: We're not really PvP orientated.
*Theme/Concept: Wolfcry accepts heroes regardless of the origin of their powers, as long as they will work within the law, and not take life unless there is no other option.
*Activity: Random. I'm on UK time, but the majority of the group are in a US time zone. We have weekly meetings, active forums and monthly task-forces and team-ups, as well as whatever else is going on.
Requirements for Membership: An IC interview with a recruiter from the group
*Leadership: Vandellia or Dego Minomori.
