The High Walls Corporation, or HWC, is a well-established trading guild founded by SAND, with a focus on trading HWC is using the knowledge, skill, and dedication of its members to build a corporation that will rule merchant halls of Arrakis.
Purpose / Ethos
High Walls Corporation has two goals.
1. Make money
The main goal of the overall guild is to create a framework to make money, with a specialized division of traders and an order system that allows any customer to place an order for items, whether they be the highest of quality or just basic crafting materials.
2. Create a guild that allows anyone to have fun
The secondary goal of the High Walls Corp is to create a framework inside the guild that allows any member or team to do what they love, want, or just feel like doing. The goal of a game is to enjoy it. Therefore we stray away from pigeonholing our community members and keep an open concept, which makes us unique.
The High Walls System
The guild has a totally custom system, developed in-house by the IT Director FlamingMojo. This handles the guild inventory and item stockpiles, tracking trades and market values of wares, and providing a "self-serve" teams and mission system. Any member can form a team to group up and participate on guild missions, to further the common interests. These missions can be small - "Gather X resource", "Craft Y weapons", "Transport Z cargo", or larger more all-hands-on-deck ones, such as exploring and taking advantage of the new shifting sands after the weekly Coriolis storm.
Recruitment Process
HWC is recruiting and open to new members joining. Simply use the link in the info box or contact SAND (@sand_15) although he has a proclivity for abduct-recruiting every new member on the official discord that dares make themselves known.
