History




History as told by Toli:

The clan Prince started way back when.. about 8 months after Jedi Knight came out. I had been playing Jedi Knight for 6 of those eight months. This was in the days of the Great clans or RA and Element... the Ancients .. and a few others.

I met this Guy Yackman and in all honesty .. wasn't that great... but we became friends and i taught him how to be a gunner at bespin mining station. Soon after we decided that we needed a clan and we were having trouble finding a name... we put forth many with Rebel in them. I said to myself Forget the others I will come up with a name by myself. PRINCE It was perfect first all my favorite characters (in books) we Prince's ... my name was already Prince... and well to be honest it embodied everything I had hoped for.

I told Yackman to change his name and as my good friend he did as I said and he was proud to be my second in command. We recruited about 20 people .. about half left.. but the rest stayed... we had only 10 - 20 members for quite a while.

And in an effort to recruit an awesome player.. I made a small bet without Yackman's knowledge pledging that all Prince members would join RA if he beat me to 10 .. however if I won he would join Prince.. a great battle ensued and the end score was 10 to 5 Prince_Arutha VICTORIOUS!!! ... just to bad he didn't keep his word

Prince went through many stages One where we were large in stature but we lacked strength. I told Yackman many times that we had to make our clan stronger...

Prince really took off in the year that I was away ... a whole year Yackman took over and kept me informed and was so loyal that he would not assume full leadership... Just waited patiently for my return. during the time while I was away many members were added to our ranks. and Yackman also become a budding saberist .. and a better gunner than I ever was.. After my return I spent about two to three months regaining my meager skills. I battled feelings of feeling left out.. feelings of creating something bigger than I could control and most of all I battled feelings that Yackman took over Prince slowly but surely whether he knew it or not. This was not so because I learned that it was up to me to reclaim leadership of Prince ... it wasn't Yackman's job to hand it to me on a silver platter. So I worked hard learning the art or sabering. I got to know my members ... and even got the full version

Their are many things that I owe Yackman .... my skill (meager as it may be)... my rank in this clan... and I also owe him the whole clan. Without him keeping things inline while I was away I would not have had a clan to come back to. Yack you are a better friend than I ever was... if their is anything I can do ... let me know.
