The Illicit Entrepreneurs (“IE”) are a loose association of striving businessmen and women with one common goal: maximizing profit. While many of the IE’s current fronts are legitimate, the backbone of the group consists of former bandits, thieves, criminals, con-artists and disgraced warriors trying to rebuild their lives. From Alerar to Fallien, their creed stands: the power of the sword means nothing if you can’t afford to buy it. Thus the IE attracts all types of business minded dregs: soldiers, warriors, governments, heroes, villains, and legends. Funds obtained from the IE are directed everywhere. From schools to castles, from clans to wars, from continent to continent, IE money is what is being exchanged.
Admission
All types of characters are allowed to join the IE. The first ten (10) applicants shall be given free admission to the lower ranks of the clan. Following that, applicants must provide a link to a score of 55 or higher to be admitted to the lower ranks.
Financing
IE is a profit maximizing group, and must therefore rely on its members for the building of capital. All members must submit 35% of all spoils from their adventures on Althanas to a community pot. There is no capital requirement to join the IE as many potential members will turn to the group when they have nothing. Every month, disbursements will be made to ALL members based on their ranks.
Ranks/Disbursement Schedule
There are currently three rankings among the IE:
Veteran—receives 50% of the monthly intake of profit divided equally among members.
Pro—receives 30% of the monthly intake of profit divided equally among members.
Rookie—receives 20% of the monthly intake of profit divided equally among members.
*Ranks may be added as the clan grows larger.
**A pot of 1000 GP will always be kept for clan related ventures.
***In the event that additional incentives are offered to clans, other rewards will be disbursed in the same manner as GP (including EXP or items).
Thus is it advantageous for members to rise up the ranks while preventing others from doing the same. This is the spirit of competition, and it is imbedded into the foundation upon which the IE is built. To rise in ranks members must do some of the following (which include both IC and OOC elements): be an active player at Althanas, consistently contribute capital to the clan, create or assist in an enterprise, win a clan war, or consistently score above 70 on Althanas judgments.
Code of Conduct
The IE does have a general set of rules:
1.) IE members are allowed to be in other clans provided they do the following: inform the IE which clans they are members of and, in the event of a war, support IE whether or not they are a member of a clan that is opposed to the group.
2.) Refrain from killing other members in times of dispute.
3.) Proprietary information is for members only. Do not share secrets of the group if you have been entrusted with them. This is the most important rule of all. Enterprise cannot exist without it.
Office of Corrections
Little is known about this strange division of the IE, the Office of Corrections appears to be both an internal and external method of solving problems and correcting errors. The OC consists of two (2) members from each rank and are paid monthly from a special hedge fund donated by a very wealthy old Althanian.
