Djelian Guard HQ map by Kefka updated for Quow's Cow Bar

Description

Although the Djelian Guard is much reduced in size since the glorious days of imperialism in centuries long past, a sizeable remnant is still housed in Djelibeybi. These loyal soldiers have all sworn their allegiance to Djelibeybi, even if there isn't much need to defend its borders anymore.

Location

The headquarters of the Djelian Guard are located near the Palace in Djelibeybi, the premiere city of the desert continent Klatch.

Playing Style

The Djelian Guard is a very combat-focussed guild. This will appeal to some players, especially Numberchasers and other players who enjoy fighting with swords, maces, polearms and daggers while wearing bronze and leather armour and equipment more suited to a desert environment.

Joining

Joining the guild is a fairly simple task, achieved by typing 'join' when you are in Ptrakti’s office in the Djelian Guard Headquarters.

Upon joining, he will give you a booklet detailing information about the Djelian Guard that you can read.

Learning

You can learn new commands and advance your skills from Hin-lop-heds who wanders around the back of the ground floor of the Djelian Guard Headquarters

Typing 'help here' will show you a list of commands you can use to learn and advance skills.

Type 'say teach me please' in this room to see if you can learn new commands.

Hin-lop-heds will greet all warriors with their rank and their guild.

The Djelian Guard Headquarters offers several services and special rooms on its 3 floors:
