White Tower

The White Tower is a guild from the Archmage area.

The White Tower started on Server III (which became B2 Blitz Guild Server a few resets after). The name of the guild is based on the Wheel of Time book series by Robert Jordan.

The first leader was Asmodae - he left after 2 resets and for the next 2 years a council of guildmembers lead the guild: Gaidin, Lobster, Belsambar (Ravidel), Stryker, Groentje. The guild gave longtime members the title Aes Sedai (female) and Asha'man (male). Which is a title for live, if you are a member of the guild or not. Many players moved to more Elite guilds after a couple of resets in White Tower.

White Tower started as a Honour guild, and in 1999 and 2000 formed an alliance with other larger honour guild (Dark Pentegram Elite, The Covenant, Iron Fist Protectorate) and together fought reset after reset against dominant aggressive top guilds. At some point it became quite ridicoulous to be an Honour guild and still improve, the more because bug-exploiting and scripting also became an issue and the aggressive top guilds were using that mainly to fight each other - no point in mixing in that.

At that time, White Tower became slighlty more aggresive. Because it wanted to be a newbie friendly guild, a branch White Tower Academy was formed and it's members followed a strict 'Honour guild' R.O.E. White Tower stopped in 2002 and shorly after the MARI servers closed down.

Many former White Tower mages play The Reincarnation.
