House Of Morningstar Baptisms
What is it?
House of Morningstar Baptisms are a Morningstar Traditon that we have had available to members since Launch. They are NOT required. They are simply an available tradition of the House. If you would like a Baptism, you may request one. Once you have completed a Baptism, you MAY NOT ever complete another, though you may attend OTHER MEMBER'S Baptisms.
PLEASE NOTE, ATTENDING A MEMBERS BAPTISM IS A SERIOUS BUSINESS. THERE ARE STRICT BAPTISM LAWS THAT MUST BE FOLLOWED, AND ANY VIOLATION IS NOT SIMPLY A RULE BREAK, IT CAN DESTROY THE EXPERIENCE FOR THEM PERMANENTLY, FOR WHICH YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE.
THESE RULES WILL BE EXPLAINED IN DETAIL TO YOU BEFORE YOU ENTER YOUR FIRST BAPTISM AS SUPPORT.
STRICT HOUSE LAW STATES THAT YOU MAY NOT EVER SPEAK ABOUT BAPTISMS PERIOD, IN VOICE CHAT, TEXT CHAT, ON THE WEBSITE, FACEBOOK, PUBLICLY, TO THE SERVER, OR IN ANY CAPACITY ANYWHERE PERIOD WITH ANYONE UNLESS THEY ARE LISTED AS BAPTIZED. DOING SO WILL DESTORY THE EXPERIENCE FOR THOSE WHO CAME INTO CONTACT WITH WHATEVER INFORMATION YOU DROPPED, AND THAT IS NOT GOOD, THEY DESERVE THE SAME RESPECT WITH THEIR EXPERIENCE AS YOU GOT ON YOURS.
THE DEVELOPERS OF ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE KNOW OF OUR BAPTISMS, WHAT THEY ARE, WHAT THEY ENTAIL, HOW THEY WORK, WHY THEY'RE DONE, ETC, AND HAVE APPROVED THEM. NOT ONLY HAVE THEY APPROVED AND PRAISED THEM, THEY HAVE MAINTAINED HOUSE LAW FOR 6 YEARS, VOWING NEVER TO RELEASE THE SECRETS OF THIS TRADITION. TO DATE, THEY HAVE KEPT THAT PROMISE.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE THE GUY WHO FINDS OUT WHAT HAPPENS IF THEY FIND OUT THAT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO RELEASED INFORMATION THEY HAVE PROTECTED FOR OVER HALF A DECADE.
IN ADDITION, OTHER GUILDS KNOW OF THIS TRADTION OF MORNINGSTAR, THEY HAVE RESPECTED IT, AND MANY HAVE HELD OUR SECRETS. THEY HAVE RESPECTED OUR OWNERSHIP OF THIS TRADITION, NOT RUNNING THEM IN THEIR OWN GUILDS. THEY HAVE RESPECTED THE DELICACY OF THIS TRADITION, AND HAVE WARNED US OF MEMBERS OF BOTH MORNINGSTAR AND THEIR GUILDS ATTEMPTING TO RELEASE HOUSE SECRETS WITHIN THEIR GUILDS OR WITHIN THEIR GROUPS. MEMBERS OF MORNINGSTAR HAVE BEEN IN DUNGEON GROUPS WITH MEMBERS OF OTHER GUILDS ONLY, SPEAKING ABOUT THESE THINGS. THE MEMBERS OF THOSE GROUPS HAVE AT TIMES GONE ON TO WHISPER THEIR GM'S OF THE INCIDENT, WITH THE OFFENDING GAMERTAG, AND THAT GM HAS THEN CONTACTED ME AND BOTH HOUSES HAVE REMOVED SAID MEMBER FROM THEIR GUILD.
THE CONSEQUENCES OF RELEASING THIS LONG RESPECTED AND LOVED TRADITION CAN BE BRUTAL, SO IT IS HIGHLY ILL ADVISED TO DO SO.
DO NOT BE THE GUY WHO RUINED OVER HALF A DECADE OF SILENCE.
WITH THIS BEING SAID, AS LONG AS A TAG IS LISTED AS BAPTIZED, WITH AN ED AT THE END, YOU ARE FREE TO DISCUSS BAPTISMS WITH THESE TAGS ONLY. BE CONSIOUS OF OTHER MEMBERS OF YOUR PARTY / GROUP WITHIN LISTENING DISTANCE.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTAKE OF THIS TRADTION FOR YOURSELF, CONTACT DOVE WELL IN ADVANCE. WE HAVE SEEN THEM LAST 2 HOURS, WE HAVE SEEN THEM LAST 16. THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL HOW LONG YOURS WILL LAST.
THERE ARE ONLY 2 DOORS OUT OF A BAPTISM ONCE YOU ENTER, WHICH WILL NOT BE REVEALED TO YOU AT ANY TIME BEFORE OR DURING YOUR BAPTISM. YOU MUST FIND ONE OR THE OTHER ON YOUR OWN.
THERE ARE NO REQUIREMENTS TO DO THIS. YOU CAN BE ANY LEVEL, ANY EXPERIENCE, ANY AMOUNT OF PLAY TIME, IT DOES NOT MATTER. I HAVE BAPTIZED 9 TIME PRESTIGED MAX LEVEL ALL CP SPENT, I HAVE BAPTIZED MEMBERS WHO ENTERED THE GAME / HOUSE 5 MINUTES AGO AND HAVE NO GEAR LEVEL 1.
TRADTION STATES THAT CO FOUNDERS HAVE FIRST RIGHT TO ATTEND AND SUPPORT IN BAPTISMS. NEXT IN LINE OF SUCCESSION IS GUILD MASTERS, THEN GUILD MEMBERS. IF YOU ATTEND IN A SUPPORT ROLE, PLEASE NOTE. YOU MAY NOT PRETTY MUCH TAKE OVER 9 IN A ROW IF OTHER MEMBERS WANT TO SUPPORT. DO NOT TRY TO SCREW OTHER MEMBERS OUT OF THEIR TURN TO ATTEND AND SUPPORT. SWITCH OFF ON THEM.
