↺Introduction↻
We are the Retribution Council. An established guild built as a massive foundation of players who share a passion for our community, as well as playing Spiral Knights to the absolute full extent. Here, we have a strong belief that gameplay is the heart of any game, and offering that to our players is what we're about. Due to this belief our guild has never gone inactive, running with full force since the beginning till now. With our organized mindset we offer guaranteed stability, security, and a home that'll never perish.
PvE is our main focus, with a fierce number of loyal members that expands through every timezone. We promote the skills of anyone willing to learn through our advice and quality, also doubling as the place for both the casual and hardcore audiences of Spiral Knights. Any guild will claim they do Vanaduke runs, Shadow Lairs, have events, and help their members. The main difference is we prove all of it with screenshots and videos, even offering unique perks that only we provide.
If you want to play with your guild rather than simply being in one, and want a place of quality, then this is your final stop. So let's get down to it and show what we do!

↺Information↻
Date of Creation - Retribution Council was created by Kazangen on June 29th, 2014. The guild already had a plan with eyes forward to bigger things, and despite being young steadily grew to where it's at today. This was thanks to many allies and friends who joined along the way, allowing the council to reach the height it sought to achieve, and continued to achieve.
Population - The guild ranges near 300, at all times. We are always in search of new talent and players to support, going strong all the way through. Inactive players are removed for active ones to maintain our growing numbers.
Community - Our community is constructed to be completely active, mature, welcoming, and friendly. There will rarely be an instance where you open up the list and can't find parties to play with, if available, as the majority are here to enjoy the game. Ranks in power are frequently online to keep things moderated and in top condition. If any mail is ever delivered as a complaint, be absolutely sure our action will be swift. Retribution Council is a place of enjoyment and gameplay, be sure we plan to keep it this way.
Management - Well taken care of and balanced, there are specific Guild Master (known as Admins) and Officer (known as Vice Admins) roles that allow us to be clean and efficient. This enables us to make sure the guild runs as it promises, and that it never goes back on what it advertises. These core individuals are who the guild rotates around, and we will never have inactive or lazy players in management positions. This we can assure.
Guild Hall - With hard work, our hall is completely funded by hand farming and optional donations from the players of the guild, to maintain our stand as a PvE focused community. It comes with every npc and additional add-ons available, and it has never once gone into default since the guild was born, nor will we allow it to. Farming by hand for the hall is the embodiment of our effort!

↺Exclusive Guild Perks↻
Here's our variety of perks! Retribution Council is the first and only guild to have a perk system of this degree, being able to keep it functioning indefinitely. Our guild is its own PvE smorgasbord that fits the needs of any casual or hardcore player. This makes the quality of our perks unmatched by any other, with a quantity to choose from. Let's see what they are!
( Free Membership )
Yup you read that right, get to be apart of the guild absolutely free. No forced donations at all. We believe if people want to donate, they will. Besides, it's your character and your crowns, spend them how you want to.
( Free Crafting Materials )
Need basic 1*-5* materials to craft a set you want? Then we've got it! Just ask, and it's yours, no strings attached.
( Exclusive Recipe Bank )
Tired of grinding the clockworks to get to Basil and not finding the recipe you want? Don't want to, or hate going to the Auction House just to spend more money on Basil only recipes? Then look no further, because we've got you covered with our Recipe Bank, where you can get your Basil recipes on the fly at the exact Basil price! We constantly keep them in stock, have duplicates so we don't run out, and you can even reserve the recipes you want for later! Just show us the lower grade armor, shield, or weapon ready to be made into the next level (for example a heat level five Antigua for a Silversix recipe) and you're done! Here's proof we aren't just blowing smoke: https://i.imgur.com/ne0gdnI.jpg
Gunner Update armor recipes not included.
( Exclusive Sprite Food Bank )
Having trouble leveling up your current or new Battle Sprite? Wish there was an easier, more convenient way to get your specific sprite food than buying them with your hard-earned crowns, farming long hours for minerals, or tediously asking numerous people to trade? With our Sprite Food Bank, consider that a thing of the past! If you're in need of motes, dusts, stones, orbs, or stars of any type, we've got them all! A quick and easy way to exchange with none of the hassle, trading us the sprite food you don't want for the ones that you do of equal level. Always fully stocked, and ready for use!
( Exclusive Shadow Lair Material Bank )
Looking for specific Shadow Lair materials, but having trouble finding them? Sometimes there's none in the Auction House, and even when there are the materials are just downright overpriced. Well now there's an easier way to get those materials you need, at the cheapest possible price to boot, with the Shadow Lair Material Bank! We've got stacks upon stacks of Nightmare Manes, Celestial Ores, Gremloniums, and Maiden's Tears. They're all farmed from our constant Shadow Lair trips, and attainable without the wait. The best and most affordable way to get yourself ready for that delicious true endgame content and armors!
( Weekly / Scheduled Shadow Lairs )
In need of a Shadow Lair, and don't wish to spend money on a key? Dislike undependable parties that fail the mission and waste your money, energy, and time? Been in guilds that say they do Shadow Lairs, yet you never get to play it with them for the armor you want? Then sign up for ours, where our Shadow Lairs are not only organized with a team designed to take them down efficiently, but are done once per week every Saturday or Sunday if a guildie needs them, and comes with a no failure guaranteed. All you need are the materials we request you to get, 450 energy, the Eternal Orbs to craft your armor, and you're ready to go! As we like to give everyone a fair chance, please be patient and wait your turn for your week to come with us.

That means more things to play together, and more fun to be had. So why not join on in! Hopefully, there are many other games you can play with us as well in the future.

↺Rules↻
All guilds come with a series of rules. We'd love to have no rules, but sadly without them we'd have one hell of an apocalyptic guild. They're pretty much just basic things, so no need to fret.
1) Do not beg or ask for crowns, energy, orbs, or anything of worth - We're a farming guild, not a begging guild. The first step to being helped is helping yourself, and we'll gladly help you farm for what you need. If you're offered something without asking however, feel free to snatch it without hesitation. Free is free, after all!
2) Avoid cursing, disrespecting players, and religious debates in the guild chat - A bleep or bloop by accident can be ignored, but don't make it consistent to the point we start to notice it. Common courtesy in a group is the best courtesy. Besides, you don't want to be known as Patchy the Pirate. Or do you…?
3) Follow the authority of a Guild Master or Officer, at all times - We all know the cool kids think it's ''hip'' and ''fresh'' not to listen. Thankfully, each one of us are equipped with a metal bat for such an occasion, and are still currently wanted by police. In all seriousness though, to maintain order, what they say is set in stone.
4) Please do not do anything in public that will hinder the reputation of the council - This includes begging, scamming, being a public nuisance, and ruining the fun for other players by harmfully trolling in their runs. The behavior of one reflects the behavior of all.
5) Once you leave Retribution Council, you may never return - We're looking for loyalty, and nothing less. If you leave, we will have your name written down and you'll be unable to join back. Granted you left by accident, you will have a twenty-four hour timeline to send a mail to the Founder and return, but it can only be done once. If you were removed due to long inactivity without telling us, you can ask to join back any time.
