Guilds/Pyromaniacs

General Info

We are a guild dedicated to the Test of Pyrotechnics.

Our Mission is threefold:

• to coordinate to schedule more pyrotechnics shows
• to actively seek out and use Portable Star Labs to open more star recipes
• to help anyone that needs it to pass the Principles of Pyrotechnics.

Our guild chat is also a place to discuss any issues related to the test, and ask for and give advice for designing mortars. Everyone is welcome, from novice firework fans to veteran mortar designers.

Our Guild Hall is located at RP 1562, 2823, just southwest of the RP chariot. Our WH for stashing donations and CP for assisting with principles is right next to the WH.

Our CP has a public chemistry lab inside. (not upgraded, but fine for gunpowder). We also have a public barrel grinder inside. We also have 8 upgraded marble tubs for our guild members, (thank you Lazybum for building them!)

Current Guild News!!

Next happening will be another Star Party!

This Wednesday, March 28th. One party at 2pm EDT, and one at 8pm, EDT. Both will happen at the UThought, in RP (at Obol's party cp).

Hookah will be lit, and hopefully some wine or beer as well! everyone is welcome!

Star Lab Donations

We are currently seeking Star Lab donations! Many people pick them up from universities, but either don't use them, or don't know what they are for. We can help!! Chat Avanya for instructions on how to use them to pick a new star recipe, or let our guild do that for you. You can chat an elder in the guild to arrange your star lab donation, or simply drop the lab by our guild hall and transfer ownership to a guild elder. We really appreciate your help in opening more recipes for all of Egypt to use and enjoy!

Principle Assistance

Need Help with the Pyrotechnics Principle?

We want to help! Our guild elders will guide any pyro student through this process at our cp in RP. We will provide all the necessary materials, as well as help to design a simple show. (Any donations of materials that the student can provide to help defray our guild costs will be gratefully appreciated).

The whole process will take place right near the RP chariot. Please chat an elder of the guild for this service.

Eventually, we hope to have a public chemistry lab and barrel grinder in our compound. In the meantime, Obol has made his barrel grinder and chem lab (calibrated to level 3) public, to help anyone that needs access! He even opened up a public kitchen if you need to cook grinding food. Located at the RP UThought, very near the RP chariot: 1379, 2845. Thanks Obol!!

Tutoring Guild Members

NOTE: Guild members that would like to help mentor people through their principles, please Let Avanya know. You will need Elder status in the guild for access to equipment.

Here is an easy checklist of mats and steps for helping to mentor people through the principles.

Guild Projects

In addition to these buildings, we will need a steady supply of the following:

• potash
• charcoal
• cactus sap
• sulfur
• DUNG!! (hopefully we can find some non-pyro donors for the dung)

We will also need the metals for salt baths are: Zinc, Aluminum, Silver, and Platinum (though, Zinc and Aluminum are for the cheap stars, so that is best).
