Arteh 1834 Share Posted August 30, 2015 The Honor Guard of Summerhall History The origins of the Honor Guard stem from the events preceding the Duke’s War, when Lord Marshal Augustus d'Amaury’s nascent noble house was granted a considerate holding in the former fiefdom of Adria. The hardened bannermen of the Lord’s personal retinue remained staunch servants to the strong leader, and continued to serve him in the newly formed county of Amaury as the first of his prestigious entourage. Garrisoned alongside their liege within the imposing keep of Summerhall, the veterans were offered service by the Lord Marshal- to form an Honor Guard with the goal of maintaining order in the county and protecting the House d’Amaury if need be. This company of stalwart and honorable men consists mainly of the experienced cavalrymen and halberdiers that saw service alongside the Lord Marshal during the Duke’s War, though apt newcomers in search of virtuous employ are encouraged to join the ranks of the capable band. Serving the House d’Amaury as Summerhall’s peacekeepers and their liege lord’s elite bannermen, the Honor Guard is tasked with maintaining order in times of internal and external turbulence. Role in Amaury Since the birth of the intrepid House d’Amaury, the Honor Guard have been charged with protecting the County of Amaury and ensuring stability over their Lord’s holdings. Patrolling the burgh- oft on horseback - the brave men of Summerhall watch over their lands with a wary gaze, protecting the denizens of Amaury from ruthless bandits and savage marauders. The men of the Honor Guard are also graced with the task of guaranteeing their the safety of their lieges,the honorable aristocracy of House d’Amaury. Acting as an armed escort and guard force when the need arises, the soldiers garrisoned within Summerhall’s walls serve the Lord Marshal and his kinfolk with zeal and ardor, upholding the virtues of their commander while protecting his family. Comprised mostly of the tested veterans of the Duke’s War, the Honor Guard is gracious to bear a large number of weathered combatants under its service. The brave footsoldiers of a vicious and bloody conflict, the Lord Marshal’s banner force boasts a capable number of courageous and valiant combatants who are well-suited to fighting wars with skillful organization and unfaltering loyalty. Ranks Initiate The starting rank of the Honor Guard. This rank is given to the fledgling guardsmen who have recently began their tenure within the Honor Guard, and as such they have yet to prove their aptitude and valor. Footman Those who have been tested as able-bodied and loyal levies of the House d’Amaury, the Honor Guard’s Footmen make up the auxiliary of the force, and carry out their duties with coordination and devotion. Man at Arms Often regarded as the more gifted and skilled counterparts to the footmen, the Men at Arms of Summerhall boast considerable competence and are proficient soldiers. A service of considerable longitude under the Lord Marshal is usually rewarded with this respectable ranking. Sergeant The men of Summerhall who have displayed an aptitude for leadership and an ample amount of confidence and zeal are repaid for their prowess with this rank. Sergeants of the Honor Guard are shrewd disciplinarians and soldiers capable of relaying orders and maintaining authority.
