Idon Raiders
Description
The primary purpose of the Idon Raiders is to engage in player-run provincial invasions (as opposed to GM-run "drone" invasions).
Mission: The Idon Raiders are not griefers but a group of motivated players who have a passion for role-playing criminal characters. Our goal is to provide entertainment for everyone involved in our raids - not just our Raiders. When the raid has concluded we expect that our Raiders should have inspired a positive response from our victims, not a negative one. For us, it really is all about having fun with the many RP possibilities that emerge during our events.
No-Report Policy
The Idon Raiders are totally against resorting to Out-Of-Character solutions to In-Game, Character-vs.-Character problems of any sort. We feel that he who runs to the GM staff to solve his problems is simply taking the game way too seriously. Several Raiders, however, have a history of being reporters and policy-players, and the "no-report" policy is viewed by many to be something of a joke.

History
These were the only words scrawled on the yellowed, battered, and oddly grease-stained parchment that has become known as "The Accord of the Idon Raiders." To this day the origins of the words are unknown, but the parchment itself was produced from the leg of Ragran's pants the moment a need for such a thing arose. The words were hastily scrawled across the top with many corrections, false starts, and entire lines scratched out, but in the end these stately words were the original contract that bound the members of the group together.
Structure
The Raiders do not have any hierarchy or formal organization. At most, they are criminals who agree to cooperate for a common goal. Like pirates, each Raider has an equal say. However, some Raiders have assumed responsibility for certain tasks:
| Herald | Tsinlee |
| Intelligence Karanea | Miir |
| Lore Karanea | Sarkranis |
| Recruiting Karanea | Kaity and Synyster |
| Security Karanea | Denstimar |
| War Karanea | Gothus |
"Karanea" means "faithful" in Gerenshuge, the native language of Elotheans.

Recruiting
Criminals of every guild are welcome to join the Raiders. However, the Raiders do not actively recruit Paladins, because their philosophy is often at odds with that of the Idon Raiders.
Stealing skill is not required to compliment a raiding party. The Raiders believe that a combination of talents is important to the success of any invasion force. The single most important virtues of an Idon Raider are gumption and a desire to have fun.

Raider Highlights: A script for StormFront that will add all current Raiders to your name highlights. Raiders and non-Raiders who participate in our events should consider adding the Raiders to their name highlights.
The default color is indigo. If you would like to use a different color, replace 8000FF with the hexadecimal code for another color. E3701A is an orange color that shows well.
