Hey guys, I have an idea for a guild/program for either the Order or the other shards. I don't know if this idea would work, due to the population of the game, the lore, etc..
The idea is this; a guild called the Hatchery (or it could just be a community-run program) would be created. The objective of this guild/program would to take a bi-ped (new/low-level) and pair them with a hatchling. The program would strongly encourage the bi-ped and the hatchling to work together, in questing, grinding, crafting, and all other aspects of the game. In an RP-sense, life partners. (To clarify, not Life-partners in a married or couple/relation ship sense, but in very, very, very brotherly/sisterly bond type thing.)
Could this fit into Istarian Lore? Possibly as a joint operation/project between the Helian (or 'rogue' lunus) faction members and the Empire. To better combat the W.A./Blight. Would something similar to that work? I admit I have limited knowledge of the game lore as of yet.
Anyways. People would sign up or join the guild (named either The Hatchery, the Order of the Hatchery, or Dragon Knights/Dragon and Knight, something similar).
Part of my reason for this idea is the difficulty that lower-level characters have (especially dragon hatchlings) in their lower-to-mid levels. This would provide a partner (you would be matched with someone who has similar available times to play and time zones and such, so you'd be on together as much as possible). It is also because the idea of dragon and bi-ped working closely together (often from the dragons birth) is a common theme in books, and is a favorite of mine (Examples being LungTiens last name... I forgot how to spell it e_e, and a few others which I forget right now ... I suck at remembering the titles of books anyways...).
Also, I think it would make for interesting RP and for some fun game play.
Anyways, do you guys think something similar to this would be an interesting thing to do? It doesn't have to be a guild, either, it could be a community-run program based on the forums, so it wouldn't be limited to people in certain guilds, but open to everyone in the server/game, no matter their guild.
Do you think the Istarian community would accept/embrace this? And do you think the Istarian population is high enough to support this idea?
Please discuss.
