FAQ

  • The Guild is a cozy little pocket of paradise for introverted creatives in Second Life. Our community is woven over four stunning regions perched along the inner curve of Heterocera, perfect for zoning out or zoning in.

    Need space to build your next masterpiece? We’ve got free studio space with generous prims.

    Members can show off their work at the Gallery at The Guild and join in the low-key chaos of MACHINICON, our homegrown machinima convention.

    Plus, with the Route 6 Sky Canal, it’s easy to wander (or drive) when the mood hits. And the neighbors? Top-tier. Chill, creative, and quietly brilliant—just like you.

    Views included, inspiration inevitable.

  • All residents have access to spacious studio areas designed for building, crafting, and creative expression. We provide large spaces and even larger prim allowances so your ideas can grow without limits. Members use their exclusive access to schedule time inside the studio in 24 hour blocks, giving them time to build and film in clean open space.

  • Guild members can showcase their art and creations at the prestigious Gallery at The Guild — a community hub for exhibitions, installations, and visual storytelling.

    Our on staff curator will work with you to feature your art and showcase your talents in one of the six year exhibitions.

  • Even though the Guild is a haven for creative introverts, we’re lucky to have Bryce Sun, our resident ‘extrovert-in-chief’ - who keeps an eye on the grid and handpicks fun social outings we can enjoy together. But don’t worry if you don’t want to come - no pressure, just good vibes!

    If you ever feel like poking your head out of your creative cave, we host weekly community meets ups on Tuesday at alternating times. It’s a casual space to chat, share ideas, and help shape the future of the Guild (or just show up with coffee and lurk—totally valid).

  • We’re the proud home base of MACHINICON, Second Life’s very own homegrown machinima convention. That means you’ll find filmmakers, storytellers, and camera-wielding creatives quietly plotting their next virtual epic around here.

    But don’t worry—you don’t need to be a director to belong. Whether you’re building, writing, honing your photography skills, or just vibing with your vision, there’s a place for you at the Guild.

    We hope you’ll stick around and call it home.

  • The Guild is fully integrated with MyStory, the immersive life-simulation game in Second Life.

    Whether you’re farming, crafting, or roleplaying, we’re set up to support your story in a carefully crafted community designed to avoid lagging out our neighbors.
