factions
[ACTIVE] Winter
One of the most well known factions ever, Winter was a faction with very few allies. To be an ally of Winter, you and all of your faction members must have had a few of the following traits. You must have been able to hold your own in a fight. You must have been a fair, reasonable player who didn't not make stupid choices. You were not just a straight up jerk. There were definitely more qualities needed then that, but those were a few. Winter used to own the market right in front of omega before the Wilderness reset, and used to have one of the most well known mob grinder on the server, with coordinates regularly being blurted out. The no griefing allowed rule was the only thing keeping Winter's grinder and base alive. Winter was the faction that rioted the most, using full Protection III or IV. Some of the most well-known players were a part of this faction. Its first owner was Just_Jarryd, until he made a new faction. He then handed the reigns to Nigz4less. Nigz4less has now been banned, however, for duping, along with most of the trusted members of Winter. The remnants fled for allying factions, and Winter is now forever lost.
Or so we thought! After the mass-unban that happened on April 20th, 2014, Winter has been able to start up again. Almost all the old members have re-joined the faction to reign again.

[extinct] veteran
While not one of the biggest factions, or the most merciless, Veteran was definitely known. Previously owned by jabeast2, one of our wiki editors, this faction was not easy to get into. The only true way to get in was to earn jabeast2's respect. If he considered you a Convicted veteran, he would let you in. While this faction had a few allies, it didn't go overboard like most factions try to do. Veteran was previously owned by StealthSloth, which is actually the reason jabeast2 disbanded Darkmist, (see below) considering it was a solo faction anyways. StealthSloth, more commonly known as Gorea27, is now banned, and jabeast2 did the best he could to live it up to its true name.
[active] endangered
This faction has a huge tradition. It was founded in December 2011, and is one of the oldest still existing factions. Its members might not be the most powerful, apart from some exceptions, but it is the second largest faction on the server with only Frees in it. Endangered is trying to get as many allies as possible, and will usually recruit without many requirements. Its leader is Galuzer, who has been in the faction for almost a year.
[active] guards
This faction is pretty self-explanatory. Any and every Guard is required to be a member of this faction. Their only ally is the faction Wardens - even though they usually have no members. Guards has many enemies, one being Winter. They have over 40 members, and the purpose of this faction is to keep guards from accidentally/purposely killing each other. Many factions attempt to ally Guards, but are either unanswered or enemied. (Most often enemied if an AlphaGuard is online).
[extinct] darkmist
Darkmist, just like Endangered, was one of the bigger factions of the day. With around 30 members, it was a peaceful and prosperous faction. It was also the home of jabeast, one of our wiki editors. It ran for about 8 months, until the owner, Infinite_Galaxy was banned for X-ray. Infinite was one of the more major players of his time, so many still question if it was a legitimate ban. Nonetheless, he is still banned today, and will likely not be unbanned. After his ban, the faction ran on a few more owners, but after some time, most people left the faction. When the last major owner of the faction left, he handed over the powers to jabeast. Being slightly inactive at the time, most people thought that Darkmist was done for, so they flocked for allying factions. Coming on just before his inactivity was to delete the faction, he found it empty and abandoned, so he decided to at least keep it alive. It was finally taken down by him, after 3 months of being a solo faction. In it's solo faction days however, the poplular convicted youtuber "TheCookiesRtasty" had joined for around a month. It is now a forgotten faction...
[Extinct] brosofiron
An old faction dating back to October 2012 when Codemonkey created the faction BrosOfMC along with Ladida12345 when they were both in Elite Block. It had over 20 members at that time, until Codemonkey handed the title over to Ladida. When Ladida became guard, he passed on the title to 0xide_z3r0, who changed the faction name to BrosOfIron but after a few months, the members of the faction slowly faded out. Now, it has only a single remaining member in the faction but is one of the two factions that is an ally to the hard-to-become-ally clan -- Winter.
[extinct] goodperson
A faction that was created by aevilcow and housed some of Convicted's veterans, such as Noakii, CommanderCookie, himself, etc. Many members have left since; however, in its prime time, it was a very popular faction.
[extinct] weed
Of course, you know what this faction was into. Quite a big faction, WEED focused on.... you guessed it, selling sugarcane in D block. They didn't make too much money off of WEED, despite the name, but they did pretty well for themselves.
[active] lannister
A large faction with a boatload of allies. It is actively led by JimmyMountain. The faction is is great starting point for all new Frees, as it has provided for players like bluefocus, Bhealz, and zeldafan128. It can be considered the new-age Endangered.
[active] bidoof
Oh mercy, the bidoofs have arrived, and have formed a major faction on convicted. Owned by Fireflasher361, most people in this faction have bidoof skins, and act in character from time to time. It has grown to be a really big faction, and generally peaceful, but its recent riots have made people believe that if any faction had to become the new Winter. It is even home to 0tterl0v3r, one of the oldest and most well known players of Convicted (not true anymore).
[active] thebros
A now dead faction, but not extinct TheBros gained popularity among the lessers of Convicted. Previously owned by WhiteDude32, and the semi-anonymous lewisgatt123.
[Active] SackBoiis
SackBoiis, as it proudly calls itself, is currently a major faction housing major rioters. Founded by iAmKdkane, darius99, and duderobot123, this faction has many members, and riots almost daily. In early April it's founder iAmKdkane was banned along with ricalday and WOLFSRECON. Since then many of its members have left the faction and moved on to other factions such as Republic or created their own. The faction still survives to this day. WOLFSRECON was later unbanned with the Ban List Wipe, though iAmKdkane and ricalday remained banned from the ban list wipe, but are now unbanned because Viper thought the ban was unjust.
[Active] Cerberus
Cerberus (originally known as TheLastFew) was founded by SKP4472 and blazerseb around September or October 2013. The faction consisted of just the two of them until blazerseb decided to ultimately quit the server. TheLastFew was then renamed Cerberus in around January 2014 (after a pro-human organisation from Mass Effect). Cerberus is a big faction with many PvPers, only Frees are allowed to join the faction. They had a faction HQ up until May 2014 located on the fourth floor of the courtyard. Its main ally is Republic (not true anymore).
[extinct] Republic
Republic (first known as Capitalist) was founded by bluefocus. He later invited Dutchleader into the faction as co-owner. Since then Republic has grown, inviting more and more people to join. Following the collapse of the SackBoiis faction, Republic recruited the help of several of their members such as Bhealz and i_no_noob_10. Republic's main allies are Cerberus and Endangered. It's worth noting that the majority of its members have millions of BP, including Dutchleader, (the richest user on the server) with 29 million BP. All but one member of Republic are donors. Redrum_face is a former member of the faction before moving on to create his own (slayer). Republic and Cerberus were often regarded as the most powerful factions at one time on the server (after the fall of SackBoiis). In May 2014, bluefocus finally went inactive and handed over ownership of the faction to Dutchleader. Following that, Dutchleader also went inactive, with power returning to bluefocus, who subsequently gave power to one of the only surviving members, Winter_Arrow. On July the 10th 2014, Winter_Arrow officially disbanded the faction, due to lack of members, allies and power, becoming known as the Communist Revolution.
[Extinct] Alexisiop
Essentially the new Bidoof, all Alexisiop members must wear the same skin as our former wiki editors alexisiop herself. They must also adopt the same titles as her, and they are all given a form of -iop at the end of their faction title. For whatever reason, the cult faction draws many enemies.
[Active] Parkour
This faction was founded by charsmars and ablakac, for parkourists to be in. To be in the faction, you must be free and be able to beat many quests and be able to parkour. This faction is considered to be OP solely because of its 2 chaos members and 2 double chaos member.
[ACTIVE] Serenum
Serenum was made to be a faction of power. Started in late July 2014 by divonte after he left SackBoiis, the faction has grown to include some famous players. It is home to divonte, a 2nd chaos user, and Fluff_Nut, a regular chaos user. Many people of the faction have a plethora of stars, some even obtained the highly-elusive dark red. The faction keeps high standards for whom it invites. The major founders of the faction were originally ZoomReddin and divonte, mainly for their love to parkour and selling levels.
