2003 was the year in which the Wilderness Guardians was first established, and the third and final year of RuneScape Classic being the flagship game of Jagex.
Summary
His Lordship was introduced to RuneScape Classic in July, and after around 5 months of playing, he developed a hatred for PKers when he was killed while collecting runes in the Wilderness. He made a fansite post to try and gather support for an Anti-PK clan, which he opened on 6 December 2003 as the "PK PKs" - later changed to the "Wilderness Guardians". The clan was an instant success, gaining around 50 applications in the first two days, and forming alliances with The Sabres (RuneScape's oldest clan) and joining a group of ARPK clans known as the Federation.
