The Factions board is the latest Contributed Content section here at SoE. Like the other Contributed Content boards, everything posted here in Factions is added to the game. Since Factions are primarily storyline elements and don't add any new mechanics to the gameplay, I've placed them under the Kingdoms heading, as opposed to the Contributed Content section.
Factions are, for all intents and purposes, akin to miniature Kingdoms. The main purpose for adding a Factions section was to give contributors and players a way to affect the overall political landscape of SoE, and to offer an alternative group for a character to be part of besides the existing Kingdoms.
As with other Contributed Content sections on the site, I've provided an example of what a Faction would consist of. Factions aren't mandatory by any means, nor are characters limited to just the Factions or Kingdoms that already exist. If you want to make up a Guild or something for your character to be in, that's fine- you wouldn't be required to join an existing Faction.
