Clan Formation
It is an enormous responsibility to form a Clan. One should not embark upon the journey of clan leadership without a great deal of consideration and planning.
Clan Approval
Your Clan must be approved in advance. The application must include some basic information and then the Official Clan Charter. Supplying the following information in exactly this order, numbered and organized in this exact way:
- Name of the clan.
- Appearance name of clan.
- Type of clan being formed.
- Who the 4 founding members will be.
- Region where the clan will be formed. (Either Sable or Thrace).
- A one or two sentence SUMMARY of the clan's theme. (not the creed!).
- The Official Clan Charter.
To submit your clan proposal, type: clanapproval
Forming the Clan
Four people, all of whom must be at least guild level 5, are required to form the clan. These founding members must be in a party and the leader of the party will be the founder of the clan.
Forming a clan requires an initial tribute of 100,000 coin to Vindicator from the bank account of the founder. This cost can be shared by the founding members in any proportion they desire. Simply give coin to the founder immediately before forming and have him or her deposit it in the bank.
Proceed with your group to the Hall of Clans in the area of Threshold you wish to be your clan's region of origin. They are located in Sable and Thrace.
All 4 members must then type beseech Vindicator.
The founder will then be asked a number of questions that configure the initial settings for the clan. This includes the name of the clan, the type of clan, the way the name appears (known as the appearance name), and both the primary and secondary clan colors.
Once the clan is formed, the members will need to pay annual clan tribute as well as the annual personal tribute to have full access to clan functions.

Final Warning
Failure to remain true to your clan theme can result in your clan being disbanded and abode deleted. This clan system does not allow the type of generic, uninteresting associations that were common under the old system. Clans that devolve into trying to "win Threshold" rather than being an interesting and creative aspect of the game world will not be tolerated. By creating a clan, you are agreeing in advance that this determination is the SOLE JUDGEMENT of the administration. We are fair, but we will not let this feature rich clan system be ruined by people who make a mockery of it.
Final Thoughts
The clan system is designed to add another layer of depth to the role-playing environment of Threshold. You should not form or join a clan simply to have more people to get gear from or to help you gain levels.
