On a side note, Star Wars Galaxies is shutting down. Not sure if any remnant of MA was still running there or not, but it all comes to an end. SWG was such a disappointment. It is not surprising that it is ending. The original release corrected a lot of the problems that EQ had, but they didn’t duplicate the things that worked in EQ.

As for Rough Trade, it will be up and running very shortly after Early Access starts, probably by the second day. So, I hope to see you there.

Meanwhile, due to spam, I have shut down the forum on this web site. I am looking for a new forum program to use that has decent spam protections and I will start the forum over once I get one selected and installed.

After the jump…

A few chapters were formed, but only one survived, the Rodcet Nife chapter. This guild grew over many years. While it never became a full raiding guild, it’s members where known for many accomplishments, including being some of the first to make high level crafted items when those were introduced in game.

When Dark Age of Camelot was released, a small band of MA set off to forge a new path. They established the guild in that game. That branch became part of something called the Rough Trade gaming community, which is very active in WoW currently.

Mystic Alliance meanwhile, has gone on to have a long lasting run in EQ, formed a branch in Star Wars Galaxies, and later,  moved into EQ2, where it lives on today (web site).

Today, the original leader of both the EQ and the SWG guilds, David Lari (usually known in game as Kerik or Kerak) announces his intention to form the guild in Star Wars: The Old Republic, after the launch of the game (the date of which, has not been set yet.)

The Mystic Alliance web site will slowly take on a Star-Warsy look and feel as it is rebuilt for the new game. Please sign up on our forum if you are interested in being part of an LGBT/Friendly gaming guild in SW:TOR.

So, we disbanded and went about our normal lives. Our men went back to our boyfriends. Our women, back to their girlfriends. We all laid our blasters and sabers down. Or so the Council thought.

But we didn’t disband. We just faded into the background. Because we knew the day would come again. We knew, that in their most desparate hour, the Council would call upon us again. Our destiny would be thrust upon us. And together, the Mystic Alliance would once again help save The Old Republic.
