About the <strong>Gaiscioch</strong> Family<br />

he Gaiscíoch (pronounced Gosh-Kia)<br />

Tbegan on November 11th 2001 in the<br />

industry pioneering MMORPG “Dark Age<br />

of Camelot”. They began on the Nimue roleplaying<br />

server with a focus on creating a fun and enjoyable<br />

community for players of all ages and skill levels.<br />

The Gaiscíoch takes it’s name from an Irish legend<br />

found within the “Lebor Gabála Érenn” and “Cath<br />

Maige Tuired” which chronicle the first people<br />

of Ireland, the Tuatha de Danann. Specifically<br />

the First Battle of Moyturna where the Tuatha<br />

de Danann hand picked the most honorable and<br />

loyal warriors to fight alongside the Celtic Gods in<br />

a battle against the Fir Bolg. These warriors were<br />

known as the Gaiscíoch.<br />

The <strong>Gaiscioch</strong> are a social gaming community with<br />

a relaxed approach toward gaming. They allow<br />

their members to play how they want, when they<br />

want, as long as they want and do not constrict<br />

them with quotas or requirements.<br />

The overall focus of the <strong>Gaiscioch</strong> is to support the<br />

server communities and real world communities<br />

they are part of. They accomplish this by hosting<br />

public community events, participating and<br />

hosting community forums, interacting with game<br />

developers, and providing new players information<br />

through our in-game advisers and out-of-game<br />

guides, maps, and videos.<br />

With a strong focus on community our endgame<br />

goal is to create memories, friendships, and<br />

participate in the overall success of the community.<br />

It is through gaming, athletic competition, and<br />

social interaction that we forge new friendships<br />

and relationships.<br />
