There has been much speculation recently about the Order of the Trout, what it stands for and what its intentions are. The medal for some reason has become one of the most sort after accessories at the moment, why I have no idea. 

Over the last week or so I have been bombarded with IGMs and questions in GC asking exactly that. Indeed a common comment in GC currently is its a bit fishy in here at the moment when there are a few the Orders members about. For the most part I have ignored queries about the Order but a few of you have had a response.

A few of the theories have kept me giggling away for hours and some of the conspiracy ones border on the insane. Here is your chance to all speculate exactly what it means...

Over the next few days I want to hear your crackpot ideas exactly what the Order of the Trout is about and I'll be offering a prize at the end for either the most original, funniest or most harebrained conspiracy theory. Is it a political movement? A secret spy ring? A group of people who like fishing? Lets hear your ideas.

Closing date for your theories is midnight on November 10th and I'll be revealing exactly what it is in a separate thread then for those that don't know what it is shortly thereafter, along with a current membership list. For those already in the know and who want to play along please make your theories as preposterous as possible but don't reveal anything.

The only rules are you have to keep the theories clean and you cannot use your theory to attack any player or alliance in the game, although I expect a few H? conspiracy ones to be posted in any case. LOL 

Anyone that breaks those rules can expect a visit from me and possibly other members of the Order too if you are completely out of order with what you say... Not to mention the arbitrary warning from GM Luna. If this thread gets locked because of some idiot the least they will have to worry about is a trout being thrown at them! 

Lets be hearing them then... Happy theorising! Beer
Doesn't look good... doesn't look bad either!

The Order of the Trout is clearly an Illyrian masonic lodge of some type, similar to the illuminati, or should we say Golden Dawn.

Mannanan opperates the construction and recruitment of this selective and secretive organisation under the pretence that it is a mere folly, an entertaining sideline in a wargame in which politics trump war at every corner.  However, the politics of 'The Order' should never be underestimated.

The strench of the trout now pervades Illyrian society not only across regions but across many alliances also.  Infecting many of the powerfull alliances even those at war against one another, but do not be fooled by this, the trout is not neutral.  The trout exist within alliances to create war, weakening and flattening the mighty organisations of Illyriad ensuring none attain an absolute elite structure.

This in turn will in future lead to The Order itself attaining such standing at which point all who do not bear the trout medal will be but pawns in the final Trout Game.

We must at all costs limit the pervasive strench of the trout, limiting its spread across our land.  That is of course unless I done such a medal, in which case we should all embrase the trout, as there is no-one as trustworthy and honourable as myself. 

After all who could not trust a character that has survived not only the Valar conflict, but also that of the Black and White war, compared to the evil genious that is Mananananananan.

The order of the Trout is like a secret organization full of secret and wonder! Every 3rd sunday of every leap year they must partake in a human sacrifice. If one doesn't happen then one of its members are beat to death by a trout.

There are some members that are part of the Order of the Trout that also that don't play in the game some of which include Big Foot, Elvis, and Alf. They usually hold their meetings at a local T.G.I Fridays on a Monday to throw off people.

Your secret is out sir Shocked

The Order of the Trout… We need to start from the beginning!

So dear old me, Taron (That’s who Me is), noticed one day in his little stroll to Global Chat (It just became more popular then cause it use to not be easy to find when first starting to play, until the GMs made it easy. Hooray!) I met Manannan. Future Grand Master of The Order of the Trout.

Manannan was a small little guy at the time (Don’t kill me for saying that master!), but a very brave person. I would be on my rants about the Cave of Mysterious Cacti, (Who’s Leader will remain unknown!), about the great cacti! Little Manannan at the time was brave enough to ‘slap’ a very important member of the Cave of Mysterious Cacti with a trout. Thus starting the top secret (not revealed tell now!) Cacti Trout War! This was the least bloody war of all in the Land of Illyriad. The Cave of Mysterious Cacti started creating a toxic arsenal of cacti weapons, While the Trout’s prepared for the heat. While the cacti soldiers created this deadly toxic cacti weapon, a discovery was found, making the soldiers happy and less angry towards the Trout members. If the Trout learned, they could have easily put the cacti army into submission, but while the cacti soldiers where off “working” on making a cacti army with toxic weapons, the Trout master Manannan created a massive strong hold. The war subsided, when there was very little trout slapping cause the All Powerful Leader of The Cacti was “working” very hard (Also known as ‘away from Illyriad’).

Then The Leader of the Cave of Mysterious Cacti returned, still experimenting with the powerful toxin, realizing this Leader of Trout’s Manannan has created himself, becoming bigger than The Leader of the Cave of Mysterious Cacti. Eventually after the Valor conflict and Black and White war, both the Trout’s and Cacti realized they were almost the same as each other, ending the war, and creating a un official top secret truce between The Cave of Mysterious Cacti and Trout’s.

After the Truce, The Cave of Mysterious Cacti became isolated again and returned to being a secret society of unknown members of great secrecy, never to be discovered.

Then me (that means Taron, me, the important guy here), watched a war come between two alliances (which will remain unknown but one dealt with Norse mythology and the other with a road that was long). Which later this war subsided, and shortly after another war erupted (remaining unknown as well but one is with carbonized iron and the other with crusaders that come out at night). This war as well subsides almost instantly when a critical event happened.

Thus later, the creation of The Order of the Trout! A superior order then I (Taron the important person) has ever seen (but no way superior then that top secret cave....). The Order of the Trout then made itself know. Manannan then started being all fancy wancy, creating an elite order with very important, trustworthy, strong, brave, intellect, people that he knows and trust in the world of Illyriad that he slowly is letting grow.

Growing for what? To finally take out and find The Cave of Mysterious Cacti! Which of course this will never happen because The Order has been infiltrated.... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The Cave of Mysterious Cacti will prevail!

Just gotta say i think that one Taron guy is insane.

The order of trout is obviously a organization of all the insane people in Illy. Mana is trying to organize these nut-jobs to do his bidding and take over illy and rule it for himself!!! Quite a genuis plan! Hey.....wait I'm in the order of the trout... Does that make me crazy???

Sooooo....

A little squirrel told me that its not what most here would have you believe at all.

It seems that one day while polishing his nuts up a tree he happened to oversee a certain gathering of odd looking characters. He edged a little closer as the leader of the group appeared to have a couple of large nuts stashed in his trouser pocket and we all know how squirrels love nuts.

As he got closer he heard the one with the pretty Diva dress on say "But Mana you know we shouldn't, we have worked so hard to get this far". "I know" said Mana "but Elli just cant last without it and I'm not sure I can either". "You're right" said Diva "I don't think I can either".

Just then Noxxie sidled up and looking around furtively reached in to her case grabbing out a plain cardboard box. As she passed the box to Mana she gave the all clear to Griz and the angel of death who crept up silently. 

Quickly almost impatiently Mana opened the box, the tape tearing make such a noise they all panicked and crouched expecting someone to appear from the woods around them. After a few seconds they all relaxed a little and began to laugh nervously.

The squirrel crept quietly down the branch till he was directly overhead the group, now all clustered together. Looking down he watched as they opened the box and removed the wax paper wrapping from inside. Mana reached in and one by one handed them all a small brown object. The look of delight on their faces radiated through the mottled forest glen. As if they were one they all raised the objects to the sky chanting "They will never defeat us for we are the Order of the Trout!".

"Quickly" Mana said "we must destroy the evidence before we are caught". As one they all took the objects and swallowed them. The looks of other world ecstasy overcoming their faces followed by a loud moan. Slowly they all fell to ground almost lifeless revelling in the moment.

Just then a noise from the edge of the forest startled them all to life. Quickly they regained their feet and throwing the box and paper in to a bush checked each other to ensure that there was no evidence of their little rendezvous.

Whispering hurriedly Mana was heard to say "Same time next week, make sure you are not followed". With that they all made their different ways out of the bushy area and in to a nearby building.

The squirrel followed a short distance and were he able to read he would have seen the label on the side of the box that said "Chocolate fish" and the sign above the door to the building that said....

WEIGHT WATCHERS WEEKLY MEETING

That my friends is what the squirrel saw. Now you too know the secret of the Order of the Trout!
