Why don't we all post in this thread to indicate our commitment to the WDS and list what useful resources/skills/capabilities we possess. That way, we can coordinate roles in our plans.
My capabilities:
-I'm a Government major at one of the top undergrad government schools in the world.
-I'm an extremely skilled writer, fiction and non-fiction. I expect to be published and making good money from novels in not too many years.
-I'm an excellent tactician and strategist.
-I'm somewhat skilled in personal combat, armed (with everything from machine guns and grenade launchers to swords and knives) and unarmed. I expect this skill to increase significantly as I will be serving several years as an officer in the US Army after graduation.
-I'm a skilled and versatile leader. I'm not overly charismatic, but people have faith in my competence and I know how to coordinate and lead them. My largest chunk of leadership experience comes from Army officer training, which I have completed most of.
-I'm effectively incorruptable. I'm a devout Christian with high morals. Yes, this means there will be some restrictions on what methods I'll be willing to use, but hey, I'm not against taking over the world on principle.
-I have connections to some of the most brilliant people in the world. My academic advisor also advises the top levels of the World Bank regularly and my roommate is probably the top economics undergrad in the world and has already made millions on India's stock market.
Other things to know if you plan on taking over the world with me:
-I don't mind working with more capable or equally capable individuals; I will follow someone else's lead, so long as they are doing a competent job.
-I also don't mind working with less capable individuals, so long as they are not arrogant (humility makes mistakes/stupidity/weakness easier to forgive).
-Finally, I place a high value on loyalty; backstab me at your own peril.

Well hello all. I suppose I'll add what I have.
My capabilities:
- I'm currently an Echocardiography major. Because a lot of people look at me cluelessly when I tell them that, let me explain that it's ultrasound of the heart. NOT BABIES. I will not scan babies. That's Diagnostic Medical Sonography (DMS) and I have no interest in it. Not that I dislike babies. I just don't want that to be my career.
- I grew up in surrounded by history buffs, which has given me enough knowledge to ace any history class I've ever taken. Knowing the past is important to plan for the future.
- I'm comfortable with talking to anyone about anything. I guess you could call it charisma. I have a genuine interest in people, especially how and why they do the things they do.
- I can work under pressure to get the job done, whatever that job may be. I don't like leaving jobs unfinished, even if it's hard or stressful.
- I have a survival plan in case of the zombie apocalypse. Do you?
- I have a big imagination. I usually funnel it into writing or art, but it's flexible. It can go into world domination.
Other things to know about me:
- I have a bullshit tolerance of 0. I don't like those stupid mind-playing games people try to pull on each other.
- I'm not a natural born leader, but I can lead if the situation calls for it.
- My sarcasm is sharply honed and occasionally deadly.
- I'm loyal to the end, and quick to forgive honest mistakes. Lose my respect or my trust, and it's gone. I won't make it personal in most cases, but good luck earning it back.
- I hate liars. I expect everyone to be truthful and upfront with me because it's my standard. I won't be surprised if your not, but it's the quickest way of losing that trust and respect I mentioned above.

*looks around and decides on not following president, on the grounds that precedents leave little room for change and improvements, much like the American system. And frankly, only listing the good of a person is no way to organize a functioning unit. You need their weaknesses as well*
WWWWWAlias
❶ You may call me Contessa Morgenstern for all activities pertaining to the real world.
❷ Just call me whatever you would like while still within the confines of this guild. I hold the right to call you on whether I approve the name or not.
WWWWWStrengths
❶ Fanatical medical knowledge, and aspirations. I also know a mountain load on other topics such as, but not limited to, Psychology, biology in both genetics and molecular. I love chemistry. Anything cause and effect is titillating to research.
❷ High morals, values, principles... I know what I believe in and what I want done.
❸ Writer for years. Good at both non fiction and fiction, though I prefer the latter.
❹ Creative, resourceful, said to 'think differently' and on different pathways.
❺ Artist, both tradition and digital. Not profession level, but still very good at anatomy.
❻ Hard work ethic; ambitious. If I have a reachable goal set in mind, I will do any amount of hard work to get there. If its research, complex problem solving, I will give it my best go. I do tend to procrastinate a bit so I work best with strict deadlines, which I never miss. I don't leave anything unfinished if I can help it.
❼ Connections. If I need a skill, or piece of information, and can't research for myself, I often find that somebody I know can help me out. I'm on a 'friends' basis for a lot of them, so I don't have to pull strings to get some version of what I want.
❽ Teamwork. I always do my fair share of work and more. I do it thoroughly. If I am working with someone who clearly conveys their view points and ideas then I am a great listener and love building upon ideas and making them more complex and intricate. I love a challenge and love thinking through things with others on higher levels than me.
❾ Personality. I know what stand I hold on topics and won't be wishy washy about them either. I will present my point as clear as I think it, and then tell why I think this. I will pick out what I don't like about other sets of info and will immediately request more information if I don't quite agree, or just want to bring up a point to think about. I don't sugar coat bad news. I am never secretive, and I don't get angry. My true thoughts are often introverted unless you ask for them, but I rub off as a rather boisterous person.
WWWWWWeaknesses
❶ I am fat. And out of shape. Lazy would be a better term. I can do almost any physical activity without too much of a problem, but I'll be unhappy with you for making me do it.
❷ No martial arts, weaponry or combat training.
❸ Corruptible, greedy, 'loose cannon'
❹ Tendencies to control group objectives, boss others, or take workload all onto myself. I do not trust others to not drop the ball.
❺ Hard time accepting hard criticism or rejection of my work. Especially if I do not understand where it needs to be improved. Be forward and clear with me, I am actively working on improving.
WWWWWExperience
❶Been connecting with people in the underground since age twelve. I've talked to grown men daily and listened about them killing people on underground missions on the other side of the world. I've watched them grow tired, retire and move into more respectable fields, I've talked to one who still retained connections from organizations like t he CIA to washout hitmen who had no information other then who their target was and couldn't even gather details on their very employer. They can all tell you they they are all "tools of another man or organization". there is no independent organization, when you get up there, it becomes more politics from the dream. It gets complex and it gets messy.
❷I've worked as, and been paid as an informant and go-between of different organizations.
❸ I joined my first organization age fourteen, got my first knife. I no longer consider myself one of them, as I did not agree with many of their methods and Ideals, but I retain contact with my higher officer, and a few other important contacts throughout the branch I was brought into
❹Currently my biggest loyalties are to one man, whom knows everything about anything having to do with the biz, and a lot extra afterward. But I am loyal to him for reasons further than that.
❺I am willing to disclose 'cleaned' information about most of my experiences in this field of mainly payless work, as well as give as much advice as i can based on what I've seen work, or fail
WWWWWLoyalties
❶ First loyalties do not lie with this group.
❷I am first loyal to myself, and my objectives. I will not follow you if it goes against what I want to achieve. In fact, watch me on that. I won't let you mess with what I've built up, and could do something a bit on the dramatic scale.
❸ Second loyalties are those I know and can confirm as serious about their own objectives. I won't follow weak objectives.
❹ Loyalty grows with the longer I have known and worked with the individual perspn, and not the group.
❺ I have seen better organizations that this. Keep growing. Earn a game plan, actively search your informants and connections. Gain allies by the group, and not the individual. Then I will follow you like I follow some others.
WWWWWOther
❶ Contact me any time. If not available i will get back to you ASAP. (801) 859-8398
❷ I am prepared to fight. Although it is against house rules I have a stow of knives, small explosives, poisons, and one handgun with ammunition. Never fired it.
❸ My aim with rifles is stunning and quite contrary to the small amount of experience I've had shooting with them.
❹ The value of a human life, my life and especially your life, is essentially meaningless to me.
❺ I probably will be writing more here later. PM me for more information that you want, or clarifications on what I have already given you. I wont answer every question, I I won't hide that or lie to you.

The Masked Swordsman Captain

Posted: Wed Sep 01, 2010 8:29 pm
(keep in mind I am not just copying what I put before)
I believe that Adorkable Monster was right in not
just going with what the rest of us did. We really
do need to know each others' weaknesses and
loyalties.
Alias
Call me "Mask", or more formally "The Masked Swordsman"
When we meet in person I will let you know of my real name. However, if neither Mask or the Masked Swordsman work for you, feel free to call me 'James' in messages and the such.
Strengths
*I am a very social person, I am not afraid to talk when something needs to be said. I am used to being in the spotlight
from Theater class, Choir class, Band, various plays that I have preformed.
*I am also a good listener. If you have a problem or if you are upset, what you have to say is something that I need to hear.
*I am intellectual as well as creative, I am always thinking about something.
*I am a very compassionate individual. I can empathize with my fellow man/woman.
*I am very mature for my age.
*Once again, martial arts for about a year or so. top 30% in my dojo, despite not being a black belt.
*I have guts. After all, I started such a guild in a world where conflict is frowned upon.
*I am very protective. If you're under my wing, I'll take a bullet for you.
*I have many opinions and am open to any and all suggestions and opinions.
*My connections are any beneficiaries of this guild. I also have 'some' connections to the military.
*I am becoming more and more knowledgeable with politics and the way the world works. I am working on being less ignorant and naive.
*I am very interested in seeing this guild grow and become successful.
*As far as teamwork goes, I am much better working in a team, then otherwise.
*I am a good judge of character, I can see deeper into people's characters then most people can. It has been helpful.
*I do not get angry very easily.
* I am still young
Enough about strengths.
Weaknesses
*has a hard time doing homework
*can be overly protective
*can be annoying
*my dictation skills disappear when I am tired
*can be stubborn about certain things
*is fairly eccentric (Not all people think that is charming)
*is indecisive with money(likes to be 100% sure)
*changes my opinions/way of perceiving things often
*does not react well to people who leave me.
*sometimes has issues being serious(which is changing)
*I am young, therefore I am not as wise in the ways of the world as some.
*Anything else you discover when you get to know me.
Loyalties
*Anyone under my wings; friends, allies, confidants, advisers, family.
*People who are going through hard times.
*Me
*World safety, because humans take advantage of it.
*Anyone I am protective of.
Experience
(This is where I am less impressive)
*Various Preforming classes: 4-6 years
*Tae Kwon do:1 year
*Psychology:1 year (Studying for 2)
Other
*I am currently in school so managing this guild will be a juggling act for me.
*No allergies. No broken bones, pretty healthy, fairly muscular but I hide it well.
*I haven not fired a gun yet.
*I don't like it when people put on 'masks' and hide their true personality. Very rarely will they be able to hide their true personality from me. The bit about masks may seem a little contradictory considering that my user name is the Masked Swordsman. However, the Masked Swordsman is a name for a hero in the book I am writing every so often. My user name signifies a masked defender of sorts.
*I don't believe that a person's reputation is important in defining a person's life.
*I believe that we choose our future, with the decisions we make.
