Recruiting
ODO is always open to new recruits from all three factions, regardless of their experience level or time spent in-game.
ODO is an 18+ cabal, this is for the legal safety of our membership and cabal status. Above all else, we are looking for solid members with positive, mature attitudes.
Community
All members are expected to register and apply to ODO on the ODO website: omnedatumoptimum.red. In addition, members interested in role-playing are encouraged to post a character profile located in the RP forums. Members are expected to check the website frequently for news and announcements as well as upcoming events.
Members are encouraged to get involved and engage with each other on the Forums, ODO Discord server and in-game Cabal chat.
The cabal list is periodically purged of inactive players. This information is generated based upon how recently the member has logged on the ODO website. Purges will be announced in-game and on the site in advance.
Organization
Omne Datum Optimum is led by a council of officers - the Grand Master and the Master Commanders who serve in a round table system. It is up to the officers to govern and regulate ODO, taking care of the daily management of the cabal. All officers have the authority to deal with matters as needed. The decisions of the Grand Master and the Master Commanders are final.
The position of the Grand Master rotates through the acting officers. Grand Master has the same responsibilities and privileges as Master Commanders. In the event of a tie in a round table vote, however, it is up to the Grand Master to break the tie.
Master Commanders are the governing officers of ODO. It is their responsibility to take care of the day-to-day administration of ODO, to aid cabal members, moderate disputes, solve any problems that may arise and keep the cabal going on all fronts.
Standard Bearers are Knights who have been asked to assist with certain tasks within the cabal. Standard Bearers are appointed by the Grand Master and the Master Commanders. Their responsibilities may include recruiting and inviting new members, helping to organize events and taking care of Cabal Bank requests.
Knights are the full members of the cabal and the backbone of ODO, the reason it even exists. Knights have no administrative responsibilities, but they are encouraged to organize events and come forward with any suggestions if they see a chance to improve anything in the cabal.
Squire is the trial rank of ODO. Every new recruit assumes the rank of Squire for the duration of 30 days after first joining ODO. This serves as a probationary period to see if the cabal is a good fit for them - and if they are a good fit for the cabal.
In addition to being required to abide by Community Standards, members of ODO are expected to concede to the rulings and decisions of the Grand Master and the Master Commanders of ODO.
The ODO Bank
ODO maintains a supply bank for the benefit of its members. Members are encouraged to donate any relevant items they can spare to the bank as it helps the entire cabal. The bank items are available to members with approval from a Master Commander or a Standard Bearer. Items received upon request from the bank are to be used responsibly on the character that made the request - they are not to be sold for in-game currency or passed on to a non-cabal player.
