Mission: The purpose of Ascending is to train, screen and evaluate players for admittance into Clan THAC0. Ascending will focus on building leadership, teamwork and tactics in new-to-mid-level players (levels 1-49). 
Privileges: As players progress through the ranks, they will gain privileges commensurate to their rank in the game and in the guild at large. Basic in-game privileges include bread/potions. Those loyal to the guild can expect equipment and other items. All members will gain access to the private forums and teamspeak server at an appropriate level.
