Svea Ulvars Historia
Svea Ulvar – Wolfs of the North
Version 1.6
The Beginning
The Svea Ulvar guild was created a few weeks after the opening of the servers, on the English DAoC-server Prydwen in the great realm of Midgard. This was the start of a glorious time.
The original idea of the guild was that is was to invite just Scandinavian players. The creator and first pack leader of SU was a Troll Thane called Zog. Svea Ulvar was created as a democratic organisation that let’s it’s members vote in the most important issues, and it still does.
The guild quickly grew in size and reputation, while the guild was not a pure RvR-guild it could summon several groups into battle when the realm was in danger and we quickly made ourselves known as one of the more noticeable and fierce defenders of the realm. There was a time when Caer Renaris was called Caer Ulv because of our fierce defence and how often we held that keep.
As time went by we merged whit several smaller guilds, and the wolf pack grew even more in size and strength.
Svea Ulvar joined a new Alliance that also only contained Scandinavian guilds, these new brother guilds were Ragnarök and Bulle af Fetstryk. This alliance was called Norrsken and is the oldest and still active alliance of the Dyvet cluster today. The alliance has a shared messaged board that can be located here: http://norrsken.fetstryk.nu/
The server knew us as one of the more leading and respected guilds of Prydwen and the Ulvs often organised raids in both PvE and RvR.
Many moths went by until the discovery of the lost lands of Atlantis caused allots of confusion and disorder in the world. Signs of internal conflicts started show within the guild, and thus began the hardest time yet.
Troubled times
The Guild now had well over a hundred members and some didn’t come along well at all, as often happens with large groups of people.
The following incident would chock the guild to its core! The majority of the guilds original founders decided to leave the guild and start another guild and many of the other members saw this as sign that the guild was dissolving and started to wander of to other games or even other guilds.
Late in 2003 when the smoked clear all that was left was a rugged band of survivors that decided to remain and hold the Ulvar-banner high in spite of what most people thought of the status of the guild.
When Zog left SU he did so in a good manner and made Svartur the hunter new Guildmaster of the guild. Svartur decided to leave the game in early 2004, and this time it was Parn the Bezerker who took up the position as GM
The guild slowly began to regain some of its former glory and soon we were once again one of the larger guilds of the server.
Later in 2005 Parn must have felt that he wanted some relieve and so made me Ogrelin Blodig his co-GM.
SU held on to DAoC until late 2007, most of us eagerly awaited Warhammer online.
We continued to meet on our forum for about a year, and a few of us even got a chance to beta-test WAR.
Warhammer Online
Svea Ulvar was in September 2008 created on the European WAR-server called Karak Eight Peaks. We entered the battlefield on the side of Order, we have had a rough ride, since the game ultimately didn’t live up to many of our members expectations. Those of us that did enjoy the game stayed on and during the first year we merged with several smaller guilds to keep our numbers in good shape.
SU does live on and we are very pleased in our decision to make the guild for Scandinavians only.
When the game celebrated it’s first year, we were transferred to a new server called Karak Norn, it’s a an very active server and our guild recruits new members to fill the ranks as members comes and goes.
