History[]
Founded by old government members of PLUS looking to have a good time. Originally called The BrotherHood. Flag and seal have elements of an old bloc members were a part of. In late August, the government was overhauled to its current form, 2 leaders and a council. Minor dispute between The Dark Brotherhood and a small alliance tech raided made the leaders focus on getting a protectorate finally. Accompanying the government overhaul and the name change came a protectorate with Alpha Omega.
On October 25, 2009, The Night Mother, Sithis and The Black Hand, decided to appoint a Silencer. Shadow Walker was named TDB's first Silencer. A few weeks before this new appointment, TDB's charter was reworded to its current form. This included several new ranks and Government name changes.
Recent History (As of 2010)[]
On February 14, 2010 TDB merged with the small red team alliance - Christie Kreme. Under this agreement, the officials within Christie Kreme were granted leadership positions within TDB.
Several former Christie Kreme members have begun to play prominent roles in the government of TDB including supremeoverlordbob who is currently the listener - the second highest position within the Black Hand. Other active ex-CrKr members with positions of authority include glad30, BrettSharpe, Lord Sedlitz and King Bryan (who has since deleted his profile).
Building Up A Strong Alliance[]
The Dark Brotherhood is continuing to seek new agreements with other alliances by using its connections to GATO (through CrKr), Nueva Vida and others to try to establish a strong community. Tech deals are constantly occurring between nations in and outside of TDB. TDB is currently focusing on recruiting new members by advertising the closeness between members and the fact that every person gets a say in affairs.
