For those who aren't familiar with The Guild, it's about some misadventures of some MMORPG gamers in the Knights of the Good.
Some key characters:
Codex (Cyd), played by the beautiful Felicia Day. Codex is the healer/cleric in the group and seems to be the one point that connects the other guild members (aka "guildies").
Vork, my favorite character in the whole bunch. He doesn't seem to interact well with normal humans, and he's a bit frugal (for instance, bringing his own slices of cheese to a restaurant).
Zaboo, an Indian/Jewish ("HinJew") character who is obsessed with Codex. My favorite quote from him is "+5 Sexterity").
Bladezz, the Rogue. He's a high school student and spends a lot of time gaming. He's also known for making bad sexual jokes.
Clara is a mother who often ignore her children and husband. She's my least favorite character, only because I can't really relate to her.
Tinkerballa, the Ranger. She's supposed to be cold and calculating, but she's not really that interesting outside of being an Asian gamer.
Currently, the Guild is on their fourth season, episode 5 was just posted. I can't say that I like how the season is developing. I guess, I just don't find this season all that funny. I hope it picks up.
Anyway, I know that Felicia Day is really into gaming and music. Her video for "Avatar" was inspired by dance music from the 80s. She wrote the lyrics and had Jed Whedon (from Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog) came up with a "C+C Music Vibe".
I don't know the story behind the Guild's latest Bollywood-inspired video, but I suspect it has a lot to do with Zaboo and watching Hindi movies.
