"Heard a carol, mournful, holy, chanted loudly, chanted lowly, 'till her blood was frozen slowly, and her eyes were darkened wholly, Turn'd to tower'd Camelot. For ere she reach'd upon the tide, the first house by the water-side, singing in her song she died, The Lady of Shalott." -- Alfred Lord Tennyson
Welcome to the House Jurai. Formed at the stroke of 12:00am EST, in the first dark minute of December 25, 1996, (yes, midnight of Christmas Day) we were founded by the disenchanted and disposed of Kali. We had nothing more than a dream and a desire to walk on our own, free from the dominion of those who'd oppress us. We've always been a competitive gaming organization, we played NetMech, Starseige, Tribes, and Mechwarrior 4. It came to pass however that Jurai has since transcended being just a mere group of individuals who play games, at some point we become something greater. We became friends, and family to each other, we made our own legends and forged our own culture. We treasured loyalty and trust above all else, asking nothing more from our members than that they pledge themselves to the future of Jurai.
"Love, and darkness, and my sidearm." -- Moby
The House of Jurai today is a unit consisting of about eighty individuals, some recently joined, and others have been members since we were founded. We play Mechwarrior 4 (all versions, Hard Core and MekTek) competitively, and we meet on IRC almost twenty-four hours a day. We are a beast that never sleeps, our members come from all over the world; the United States, Australia, and Europe. We are a proud people, proud of our uniform, proud of our long history, and proud of all that we have accomplished.
In these pages you will find all that we have built over the years. Our Samurai families, our Battalions and Regiments, our gaming kill boards, our rules and regulations, our history and past, our traditions and culture, our real life meetings. You will find what it is that makes us Jurai.
Enjoy your stay, visiting the House Jurai.
