Ainz Ooal Gown (Guild)

Ainz Ooal Gown (アインズ・ウール・ゴウン), formerly known as Nine's Own Goal (ナインズ・オウン・ゴール), is one of the top guilds of YGGDRASIL with 41 members. Consisting only of members of society, the guild rose to prominence through the excessive purchase of cash items and possession of rare relics.

The guild itself is famous for its possession of eleven world class items, the most out of any guild in YGGDRASIL, and its creation of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the most difficult dungeon which no one could conquer.

Background
Before becoming an official guild, Touch Me and eight heteromorphic players known as the First Nine founded a clan called the Nine's Own Goal during the age where heteromorphic players were being hunted down by human players. After Touch Me had become the clan leader of the Nine's Own Goal, the clan were unwilling to restrict their ambitions and bravely adventured to other worlds. That was their self-deprecating name for a group of suicidal fools who only served to make their enemies stronger.

During the Clan's meeting, Touch Me dissolved the Nine's Own Goal and formed their official guild, Ainz Ooal Gown. Touch Me choose Momonga as the guildmaster of Ainz Ooal Gown with the full support of its members. Momonga led his guild members to conquered the newly discovered dungeon known as the Great Tomb of Nazarick and making it their guild headquarters.

The biggest reason for their gathering and creation of the guild was because of the discrimination that the other players had against the Heteromorphic Race - simply because of having monstrous forms, it was seen as natural to kill them over and over. This led the guild to decide that since they were already seen as monsters, so why not just play as evil monsters then. They then started becoming a PVP/PKER guild and gathering members. Very defensive of its members, if any were attacked they would gather extensive amounts of information about their enemy and then crush them ruthlessly.

The guild came into possession of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, an underground guild base that consisted of six floors. Ainz Ooal Gown then came to the decision that they would make this the most evil lair possible. The guild at it's peak had 41 members and they poured their hearts and souls into making Nazarick, upgrading the place to consist of ten levels and filling it with hundreds of personally created NPCs to guard it. Eventually they were attacked by one of the largest gatherings in the game. A host of 1500 players and mercenary NPCs attacked them but were defeated on the 8th floor.

After this incident, the guild Ainz Ooal Gown have manage to turn the dungeon's location into a legend, a place of pure evil that no one was able to conquer thus far other than them. Under the guild's reign, the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick overcame the largest player organized military offensive in the server's history.
