Here is my guide how to make a RP Guild. Today we will look at History.
History
Right you want a Evil guild? A Crime Organisation? A Guard? A Brotherhood? Everything cant be decided by saying "Were the Remnants of the Scarlet Crusade or Whatever" Thats the lazy way out! Say your going to be a part of The Scarlet Crusade but good. Read there history and look at points that you could put your bit in. Dont be afraid to alter the lore a bit. I mean yeah sure Secret cults can easily alter lore, But they cant say "We corrupted Arthas" Just make really tiny changes at maximum. So instead of: "We are the Remnants of the True Scarlet Crusade" Say:"We did not agree with Abdeniss' Decision so we remained true and realized we Were wrong in what we were doing and Joined the Alliance/Horde To help them Destroy Arthas!" Ok thats not the best but its basic. So thats history mostly done but...
The loopholes. Thats where this whole guild could die. You cant have people in Black Armor Saying "WE ARE THE CRUSADE! OBEY US" You need people (If a set exists) In the same set of armor saying:"We are the Scarlet Crusade! You shall obey us!"
Get it? And the lore. Thats easily fixed. Alter it slightly to make sure that you can exist without messing up the lore! If you though say the Leader is Balnazzar that would alter too much lore So Stay simple!
I hope this helped you. If you want the second part just say.

Hmm that is true but I suggest you mention something about naming your guild, ie a large amount of bold letters stating to not use the words Dark, Shady, Death, Shadows, Gods, Dragons/Dragonflight, Titans or names referencing teams of superheroes or sports players. That is one thing that kills guilds in my eyes.
