Order of the Ebon Hand (OEH)

The Order was founded about 2 years ago by Kofu son of Scar and two other people, and have since evolved and grown into a respected guild.

The Order situated itself in the area of the Minoc North Mines. There the Order grew well and even erected a small gathering of buildings as it's home base. The area being infested with rutheless murderers the Order saw that it would be better to head for the new lands and settle down there. Once in the lands of Trammel the Order became scattered over the realm, but several were able to attain a house at the Minoc Vale (or more commonly known as the the Minoc North Mines). The Order has now 'rejoined' most of it's members in the Vale as well as the guildstone.

The Order's members consist out of the commoners who practice crafts, music and the likes. And it also has a special 'Guardians' section to protect the Order's commoners and most of all protect the Royal Family. The Guardians can be recognized easily by the distinctive armour that they wear, which has been unique to the Order since it's founding two years ago.

The Order saw that it needed a better way to monitor and train it's new initiates. Therefore the Ebon Hand Seekers branch was founded about half a year ago.
The Seekers are those who are new to the Order and wish to be granted to become one of it's members, they are instructed in the ways of the Order in this branch and depending upon how they adapt to the ways they will be given entry into the Order.

The Order has assisted its most trusted allies, the Healers of Europa, in their attempt to rescue one of their members from the clutches of an evil being. As of a more recent date the Order has been working on keeping the city of Valoria clean of all the Reapers and other monstrosities which show themselves there to harm the innocent inhabitants.

The Order of the Ebon Hand is an Ultima Online guild on the Europa shard.

It is a good and respected guild, based in the player-run township of Valoria on the Trammel facet.

The Order was founded soon after the Europa shard was born, by Kofu son of Scar (our King) and two others, and has since evolved and grown into a respected guild.

The Order situated itself in the area of the Minoc North Mines in what was to become the Felucca facet.
There the Order grew well and even erected a small gathering of buildings as its home base. When the shard split, the area became infested with ruthless murderers and ne'er-do-wells and so the Order saw that it would be better to head for the new facet of Trammel and settle down there.
At first the Order's members were scattered over the realm, but several were able to acquire a house in the Minoc Vale (more commonly known as the Minoc North Mines) which has now become the township of Valoria. Now, after much property-dealing, the vast majority of the Order's members live in Valoria, and the guild takes a major part in the running and defense of the town.
The OEH guildstone and headquarters are situated here.

The Order is made of several sections, such as the commoners (who practice crafts, music and suchlike), Guardians (who protect the Order's commoners and most importantly protect the Royal Family).
For more information on the structure of the Order, read this section.

Guild members can be recognized easily by the distinctive armour and clothing that they wear, which has been unique to the Order since it's founding two years ago. This is illustrated here.
Around the summer of 2000, the Order realised that it needed a better way to monitor and train its new initiates. Thus the Ebon Hand Seekers branch was founded.
The Seekers are those who are new to the Order and wish to be granted to become one of its members. They are instructed in the ways of the Order in this branch and depending upon how they adapt to the ways they will be given entry into the Order itself.
