The Krahengarde

[Hammer4_ 166]

The Krahengarde
“Vitayu Verona!”
And from out of the snow was established the Krahengarde, elite soldiers of the Duchy of Haense, loyal to Duke Karl Barbanov III, under command of Marshal Tarcell Othaman and Hussar Roric Snobjorn, the Crow Guard.  Being the First Company of the Golden Crow, soldiers in the Brotherhood of the Golden Crow who wish to fight in close quarters or infantry combat are members of the Krahengarde, a company of soldiers stationed in Siegrad who fight for the Golden Crow and the lands of the north.  Composed of hardy northerners, the Krahengarde protect the citizens of the north and march into battle under the banner of the Crow in times of war.  To be a Crow Guard is to be strong, to be loyal, to be dedicated, and to be brave.  Think you got what it takes?

RANKS OF COMMAND

~Hussar~
Veterans of the Golden Crow, the Hussar is the leader of the Krahengarde.  He has proven his worth both in the field and out, and takes command of the infantry in times of war.  He is granted special quarters, as well as the proper arms and armor to fit the position.  Considered an officer in the military, any under his rank are to call him “Ser.”

~CURRENT HUSSAR OF THE KRAHENGARDE~
Ser Roric Snobjorn

~Esquire~
The Hussar’s second-in-command, the Esquire carries a good amount of power within the Crow.  He is charged with the helping of prepping soldiers for battle and takes command when the Hussar is not present.  Being an Esquire means you are intelligent and strong, and ready to carry out any orders given.  While he commonly dines with the enlisted of the Crow Guard, he may take seat with the Hussar and further ranked soldiers at feasts, and dinners.  The Esquire also carries the Hussar’s banner, an honor that is never squandered.

RANKS OF FOOT

~Serjeant~
Grizzled and hardened soldiers of the Crow, Serjeants have proven themselves capable countless times.  Serjeant is considered the first stage of leadership within the Crow, and it is known that they commonly deal the final blow in hunts, or battles.  Serjeants wield the more lethal weapons given to soldiers, such as warhammers, maces, or even flails.

~Huscarl~
The first rank an Initiate may receive, Huscarls are the backbone of the Krahengarde.  They have been trained in the usage of weapons, taught in the ways of the Creator, and shown loyalty to the Crow and Duke enough to prove themselves Huscarl. 

~Initiate~
Initiates are the fresh blood of the Krahengarde, the ones who truly allow the Crow to prosper and live on.  Boys and young men from all across the Heartlands and Highlands are called to answer to the Crow and take up arms within the force to be trained, tempered, and groomed, to become the next line of the Crow’s mass.  Initiates are given basic armor and weaponry, and must show their worth to be promoted and accepted as a full fledged member of the Krahengarde.

REWARDS OF SERVICE

~Payment~
Soldiers of the Krahengarde are payed 150 minas each week, while Initiates receive 100, assuming they are actively around and participating in the trainings and events that go on around the Crow.

~Weapons and Supplies~
A set of chainmail armor and an iron sword are bestowed upon the joining of the Crow, and food and drink are also given to the soldiers of the military.
