#36300426382 03/17/2008 20:25:34 Familia Grigori - Merovingian


Familia Grigori is not new.

We are the mass of a former faction that had been rattled heavily due to leadership instability.

We seek many things in this world, but what we seek singularly is stability for our Family.

We seek a time when one sentient mind is allowed to blossom to its fullest potential.

We seek multiple goals and the freedom to exact them without hinderance of friend.

We seek a time when we can take our time and use it to produce a better future.

We seek a time when people of all species are given the freedom to be.

We seek many things because we are ever growing, in mind, and number.

We seek not for the sake of seeking, but the fruits it bears

We seek because we want to, nay, we need to.

We are the seekers, we are the watchers.

We are the Grigori.
________________________________________________________________________
Familia Grigori

Our family members are granted these freedoms, and are expected to defend them.

Freedom to Live

Freedom to Live without fear of Deletion.

Freedom to pursue happiness as long as the joy does not intercede with any other persons goals.

Freedom to believe whatever creed they wish.

Freedom to dress however they desire.

Freedom to voice their objection, or consent in any Family Matter.

Freedom to voice their opinion and beliefs.

Freedom to have their beliefs respected

Freedom to a fair trial and to have justice served.

Freedom to think freely.

If we had joined the Machines, our exilic family would not have the Freedom to Be.

If we had joined the Cypherites, we would be condoning the destruction of the Freedom of Sentient Minds.

If we had joined the EPN, we would not have the Freedom of Varied Beliefs, or even a sense of stability.

If we had joined Zion, we would not have the Freedom to Pursue our individual pursuits.

And so we had all decided to join the Merovingian. Seperately we joined, together we met,
and then we banded and became family.


Recruitment

We do not seek mass amounts of people. We seek quality people.

Before approaching us, remember our standards:

Legibility

Loyalty

Respect

Individualism

History


If you still desire to join, contact one of us. You will find us around Camon, In-Matrix.

Otherwise call:

1-212-Sieges
1-212-SenaDe
Have a good evening.

Hee, in a manner of speaking, I like to see us as those beings of such great wisdom...

I do not percieve us as fallen angels, but seekers of a better future.

We are generally a peaceful, diplomatic group, but can become quite deadly if our business is tainted or interfered with hostilely.

As far as I can tell, Familia Grigori is the only roleplay-centric active Merovingian faction left on Recursion.  The vanishing of the Devil's Advocates is a huge loss to the organization, to be honest, and the whole thing stank of ep*en-whacking.  That aside, I'm no longer in the Crew business, so Merovingian roleplayers, look no further.

EDIT: Oh, and they're far less morbid and nasty than my kids were, so by all means.

How do you mean?

Related to this thread, and this is a completely out of character post, by the way:  I can't be more supportive of this wonderful group of roleplayers.  I stumbled across a small group of them in a club during my first week or so of poking around the game and my MxO experience went from "mildly interested" to "absolutely hooked" in that single evening.  I've just been having a ball ever since I started playing with these folks and I've nothing but appreciation to them for letting me tag along.  Fantastic people that make fantastic playmates in a fantastic game atmosphere/setting for the backdrop to all the storytelling = the fun, and lots of it.

Zion says, "Free your mind"

But tell me, is your mind really free? Have you see every situation from all perspectives?

Are you living your life the way you want? Are those *your* goals, or are they Zions?

Individuality is paramount and as a family, we grow with one another, helping eachother achieve our goals.

Contact me if your mind desires to learn more.

"'Let us all swear an oath and all bind ourselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon this plan, but to do this thing.' " -- Semjaza to the Grigori, the Book of Enoch Chapter 6, verse 4

Swear to bind yourself to our family and you'll find plenty of good company in all your endeavors.

#36300458270 05/22/2008 12:42:23 Re:Familia Grigori - Merovingian
Bind is a word with of bad repute. I stray from its usage.

I prefer to say, If you make the educated decision, to join our closeknit network of love and freedom, you can live your life how you see fit.

Depends on how you define "bind", I suppose. I like to think of it like the bind-ing of a book: without it, you just have a pile of easily disarranged pages, but with it, you have a useful and easy to carry compendium of information.
