The guild began as S-H, sometime in 1999 I believe, and was created by Javelin and Sheva. It was my first guild of two before I become a GM myself, and it was one of the first, if not the first, Delucia-based guilds on Ches. One day, I logged onto Tree God, my only guilded char in S-H, and found the guild had disbanded. Javelin's house had decayed, and with it, the S-H guildstone. Apparently, no one knew where Javelin lived in UO, and no one could save his house in time. That's what it was like back then; if the house fell, the guild fell. I learned that Javelin would not be coming back for awhile, so at the age of 15 I decided to take it upon myself to recreate S-H. I gathered everyone I knew, and due to my ambition, the guild grew quite large. Shortly after that realization, I decided to rename the guild SHE to incorporate the size of the new guild and to give the guild a bit of its own identity.
Javelin never wanted a large guild. When he came back, he only stayed for a short while. He gave me his blessings then formed a small guild of his own again. ShadowVixen, who served as my second GM while I was in CLH (Celestial Legion of Honor), didn't like large guilds either. Before I finished SHE, I was in CLH, and while I was in CLH, ShadowVixen gave me the Keep I have now as well as the direction I needed to create a guild in the first place. If it wasn't for ShadowVixen (and ShadowKnight), I might still be living in a 7x7 on Dagger Isle, where we had our first SHE guild meetings.
After 10 years, the amount of names to thank becomes quite extensive. I have to thank Boogafunk, who gave me my first loan (which I was never able to repay). I wish that I could one day tell him “Thanks.” And I have to thank Darik, who gave me my first UO house, thanks to that new found cash. I have to thank Black Jack for teaching me magery, and Draktyr, Thog, Sargonas, Derek Dauntless, Flagg, and all of the T2A fight night guys for giving me some practical use. There's also Darrak Ynek, K's Slave, Kane, Pooof, Succubus, Raistlin, all of VK, Alex Foxmaker, all of CLH, Nessa, Faust, Tigerlily, Pandora, SirThomas, Tanet, Lauren, Faethor Ferenzcy, Silver Spikes, Tyrion, Nova, Venturer, Nickadeamus, JuStYcE, Vingador, Kael, Deimos, Lucy, Rose Red, Lisbeth, Thorn Striff, Rayne, Demon Slayer, Sundina, Vampiro, Aidon, COOLIO, Nemisys, Rivi, Zelda, Dak, Mel, Victoria, Luther, Courage and all of SW@T, foo, Pink, Clair, Shelra, Zeph, Krimbull, Fistandantilus, Cortez, Belle, Aislinn, Buba, Kimimela, Baron, Maint, Tame, Vestige, Pearnbran, Meleguant, and probably a bunch more names I'm forgetting at the moment both former and present. Hopefully, some of the people in this list will come back to the game. And there are two other guys. One was named Vic and the other Tigger. When I stepped down as GM, they kept things going, and without them, I wouldn't be making this long, long post.
