Our Fellowship is thinking about creating a Sister Fellowship...
Are there any Rules, Guidelines or Advice on achieving this?

You have hit the nail on the head there cwgiii...There are potentially many benefits. (disclaimer: I do not belong to a group with a sister fellowship) The main one that I can see is recruiting. There are soooo many play modes for individuals. Some folks play daily/hourly while others play more casually. Folks may change the frequency of play based on real life circumstances. Having a sister fellowship allows you to have one more active group and one less active. That way, folks can go back and forth as their life situation changes. The entire group looses less folks overall that way. Super good players may need to take a step back now and then and this preserves the relationship with the entire group, rather letting them drift off into oblivion. The less active group can serve as a "proving ground" for new recruits and can be "promoted as they grow in the game.
One main downside to having a sister fellowship is the work involved. Of course this can be distributed. But, I imagine the Arch Mage of one is probably the Arch Mage of the sister as well (in most cases).
