He brought his hands up, the metal gauntlets creaking with the gesture, "We should commit to terms of the alliance and then commit to a process before we start all considering different angles. I personally wouldn't bother trying to seal this pact in any sort of magical way, unless somebody's got some artifact that handles it. Most methods I know are easy enough for us to break, or not long lasting enough anyway. So how about I lay out some ground work here, and we can make adjustments as need be. I shouldn't have to say this, but to keep this constructive and to keep us from spending an eternity arguing... please try to offer a new solution if something is distasteful for you. I'll refer to this as a 'pact' from now on because 'alliance' sounds beneath us.<br/><br/>I) Non-Aggression: Members of the Pact will take no actions of aggression against each other, including: physical violence; sabotage against another's projects; or public defamation of character.<br/>II) Defense: Members of the Pact will defend one another against acts deemed as aggression in Article One if requested. Members of the Pact are expected to give their all in an effort to create a more intimidating and unified front.<br/>III) Assistance: Members of the Pact are not obligated to assist in individual projects of another member outside of actions fitting under Article Two. Agreements and arrangements can be made, but charging goods and services, quid pro quo, is acceptable.<br/>IV) Judgement: Should a Member of the Pact break any of the previous tenants, the punishment will be decided upon by the other neutral parties, should they care to weigh in. Punishments should be swift as to be moved past, as a continued conflict would be antithetical to the previous tenants. Expulsion from the Pact and Death are, of course, always valid punishments."<br/><br/>Methu leaned back in his chair again, "Once we're set on that, we can discuss if we're going to split up and each handle our own layer, or if we plan to work as a group to move through the layers, we can figure out a plan of attack from there."
