Revisions of the By-Laws

(From The Desk Of Kieran Darkwater)

Welcome Adored Compatriots,

     As we have had our first official meeting of the Rainbow Council, it is with great pride as the new Secretary of the Guild, to put into accord the refurbished By-Laws that will be used for active members of the guild from now on. I don't believe that I need to remind you how important that it is to follow these rules, for without us setting the example for all other potential members, how can we expect them to uphold our tenets and promote prosperity throughout the land (especially for us). As ever I wish good luck to all of us on our ventures in the Equality Brigade Guild.

                                               Initialed by Your Incessantly-Distinguished Friend,
                                                                                                Kieran Darkwater


Preface: This is and will be considered the guild charter for all of those who wish to and have been accepted into the service of the Equality Brigade. All who serve under our banner must uphold the regulations and principles that are written within these texts. Rules and by-laws of the guild may be set and altered by the Council of Six as long as they do not contradict with the primary goals of the Equality Brigade.
Mission Statement: The Equality Brigade is a group of like-minded people who seek to ensure the diversity and prosperity of the goodly mortal races across Faerun. We are dedicated to the preservation of life for the common folk as well as ensuring stability within the societies that have been built on the principles of cooperation and hospitality. We are welcoming to any race that is not aggressively hostile to the aforementioned societies and strive to coerce inspire any other races to live in a peaceful co-existence to ensure longevity for everyone.
Rules and Regulations:
I.                 Members of the Brigade must prioritize guild values over any other associate objectives. While membership in other factions is permitted (i.e. Harpers, Order of the Gauntlet, Wizards of Thay, etc.), it must not take priority over the function of the Brigade.
II.               Members must ensure the protection of those who seek our aid employ. The purpose of the Brigade is to promote permanence in the lives of peaceful societies others and one must keep them alive, within reasonable circumstances, to ensure said permanence.
III.              Members shall not commit any crimes that will inflict harm unto the Brigade, whether it is monetary, physical, or reputation. If there was due cause for breaking laws, then the guild will send an associate to help navigate the legal processes but any reckless law violations will not be tolerated.
IV.              Members shall not inflict injury or steal from any other member of the Brigade. Also, any damage of theft of guild property will not be tolerated and will bring about consequences decided by the Council.
V.               Gnolls are not to be considered an acceptable race in the realm of Fareun. Any gnolls encountered during the travel of members of the Equality Brigade must be mercilessly destroyed to ensure that the vile race doesn’t desecrate the lands any further.
V.           Upon initiation to the Guild, all members must pay an entrance fee, (100 GP for Senior positions, 25 GP for regular membership.) as well as the appropriation of 10% of any members monetary gains during Guild-sanctioned missions.
VI.          The collection of guild funds, known as the Treasury, will keep an amount of 2,500 GP in reserve for use in case of any "unforeseen mortal injuries" might be sustained by members of the Brigade. After the minimum reserve is held, 10% of income for the Treasury, will be allocated for the use of the Quartermaster, for use in Guild supplies.
VII.              Any violation of the Brigade’s rule will invite a hearing convened by the Council. By the grace of the council, depending on the severity of the incident, a punishment will be decided appropriate to the violation that was caused. 
VIII.          Meetings of the Rainbow Council may only take place if all members are present. If the quorum is not met in physical conditions, it is possible to converse together upon the Brigade's personal terminals.
