Reputation FAQ: Chaos and Order Guards First notice that the term "Virtue Guard" is no longer used. Since they never really had anything to do with the Virtues, they are now only referred to as Chaos/Order Guards. What are the requirements for being a Chaos or Order Guard? You must belong to a guild. If you're not in a guild, you'll have to purchase a Guildstone and declare yourself as a single person guild. You cannot be a murderer. How do I become a Chaos or Order Guard? Under a new guildmaster option, a guildmaster can declare his guild to be either a Chaos or Order Guild assuming the guildmaster meets the requirements for being a Chaos or Order Guard. Any members who do not meet the new guild requirements when a guild is converted over will be removed from the guild. If you are a member of a Chaos or Order guild, and you become a murderer, or lose fame below the requirement (by dying, or by atrophy), you'll be removed from the guild. All members of Chaos and Order guilds are forced to display their guild abbreviation. In addition to this, members will have (Chaos) or (Order) after their guild abbreviation. If you are a member of a Chaos or Order guild, and you don't have a shield, simply say "chaos shield" to one of Lord Blackthorne's guards or "order shield" to one of Lord British's guards. All guild members of the opposite alignment will appear orange, and members can be freely attacked. All guild members of the same alignment will appear green, and members can be freely attacked. What special rules does the shield have in the new system? The shields are no longer required to be worn. (But they are nice shields) Shields will not disappear right away anymore. However, they are valueless, so they can't be sold. If anyone tries to equip a Chaos or Order shield who isn't a member of the appropriate guild type, the shield will destroy itself. Shields don't ever kill anyone anymore. You can no longer cast spells with the shield equipped.
