The Drummheim Companions

[Noer 577]

 

The Drummheim Companions
1st Foreign Brigade of Ves, The Drummhammers

 

 

 

PREFACE

The Drummheim Companions are the armed protectors of Ves. From gate duty on a quiet snowy night in The Deep Cold, to pillaging its foes on a smoldering battlefield reeking of death and smoke, these men stand in, and by, Vesnian interests. Referred to colloquially as the “Beet Brigade,” their painted Red shields symbolize the blood of their enemies, but are in reality the dried, crushed and painted remains of their namesake vegetable. Led by Captain Urrion Drumm, these men patrol our streets, fight our battles, and ensure our peace. 

 

OATH OF LOYALTY

I, a great servant of the Drummheim, upon my dying breath, will look upon these times as my finest hour.

I will reminisce of unending loyalty, of virtue in the face of the corrupt, of the sovereign above the domineering.

I will be the hammer which strikes down those nails which rise in contempt of the Republic.

Long Live the Prince, and Long Live Drumm. 

 

 

 

RANKING

Captain of the Drummheim

The leader of the Companions, the Captain is responsible for all aspects of his Brigade. There is no responsibility that when unable to be completed by the rest of the Brigade may slip past the gaze of the Captain, yet at the same time, he must be seen as an executive last action, a failsafe against the cracks in the foundation of any order of any kind. A corrector, an adjuster, and a defender of the Brigade’s ideals. 

 

1st Lieutenant of the Drummheim 

Second in command to the Captain, and the default authority on most things. Tasked with the commanding and organization of most forces in the Companions, and the administration of the Brigade, this is arguably the most important rank, if not the most powerful. All matters that go to the 2nd Lieutenant go to the captain if he is unable to handle the situation himself. 

 

Lieutenant of the Drummheim

The highest standard officer in the Brigade, these men are responsible for the higher leadership in the Companions. These men are expected to be capable of great martial prowess and strategy, and to put in several years worth of work for the guard. Where sergeants handle the day to day administration and leadership of the Companions, Lieutenants take charge during the moments of conflict and crisis to lead their men to victory. 

 

1st Sergeant of the Drummheim

Often referred to as the first amongst equals, the 1st sergeant is responsible for leading trainings of the guard, resolving disputes amongst the lower officers and his fellow sergeants. He is the exemplary soldier, standard bearer for the Companions. 

 

Sergeant of the Drummheim

The most common form of officer in the Brigade. Able to issue proper commands and act as a paragon of authority for lesser soldiers to adhere to. Responsible for organizing lower rank events, and promoting the betterment of the guard. Expected to be tough soldiers. 

 

Man at Arms

The highest standard foot soldier rank in the Brigade. Someone who has shown excellence in their service as a footman and deserves recognition above the common soldier. 

 

Footman

An experienced soldier in the Brigade. Responsible for most basic tasks.

 

Recruit

A new member of the Brigade.

Sergeant Seneschal

Beyarin Silversteed wonders if it is only a coincidence the new guard of Ves are informally named the “Beet Brigade”, given that a young boy from Curon had a beet branded into his arm, unable to recall past events.

“It is merely a coincidence.” The City master-computer assures Beyarin upon reading his dissenting thoughts.
