Avchirran ito Renelia-Gladewynn

[Rig 17580]

“When you slept, what did you see?”

 

“I saw us. Our Gladewynn from times long past. Stretching, harrowing forests that fell to deep blacks. A brilliant aurora adorning a foreign sky. And in that strange light, a lost people found unto themselves. No gates or walls marred our land - only the trees, and silent eyes within.”

 

A spirit of war has long inhabited the people of Gladewynn. Although this burden was shared among most Alderfolk, few were chosen to carry out the duties that befell the nation. Upon the Rock of Alders seven swords convened, thus forming a nation born on the dying throes of another. They lived and died, with only the rock to note their passing. Their songs and battles lay in woods forlorn by Elvenkind -- yet, the spirit lingered. Deeply rooted in the blood of Alderfolk was something that had previously laid dormant. And finally, at long last, it has awoken.

 

Refugees of the stagnated Dominion of Malin embark and accompany the King Kairn Ithelanen and Prince of Alders Kaz Ithelanen through the Barrowlands, into the former Kingdom of Gladewynn, Atlas.

 

The Avchirran is the primary branch of the military serving the Greater Renelia. Originally a mercenary company, the Avchirran attained status as the predominant military order in the Kingdom of Gladewynn, and it was absorbed along with the Alder Clans into the Union of Renelia-Gladewynn from the Covenant of Camlannen after its annexation as a leal vassal state.  The de jure military force in service of the Mortal King and the Velulaei’onns, the Kheltiruai warrior-priests serve as a sub sect in this military order.

High Command

 

Marshal, or Annilir

 

The Marshal is responsible for leading the Avchirran in its entirety. Their word is absolute, second only to the Chieftains.

 

High-Consular

 

The High-Consular is the second-in-command and acts as the de facto leader should the Marshal not be present. Typically they are responsible for carrying out disciplinary actions, managing internal disputes and boosting

morale.

 

Consular

 

A Consular is tasked with managing a small division of the Avchirran. Distribution of materials, raiding and other errands relegated to them by their superiors are a regular set of activities they’re meant to chaperon.

 

Army

 

Warden

 

Accomplished, recognized and senior warriors in service to their respective Consulares. Wardens help direct troops during everyday instances of law-breaking, civilian disputes and other domestic affairs.

 

Herald

 

Heralds are responsible for recruitment and public events. They create propaganda, advertise and speak to people to help them feel reassured and safe throughout the realm.

 

Waystalker

 

The designated scouts of the Avchirran, also called the Dread Wolves. They are charged with doing reconnaissance – scoping out enemy defenses, and keeping tabs on foreign politics from afar.

 

Guardian

 

Becoming a Guardian is the second stage of recruitment. Once you are bestowed this title, you are considered a full-fledged member of the military.

 

Initiate

 

A foot elf in the standing army oftentimes levied from the citizenry or abroad. They have only recently sworn their oath to defend the realm unto its dying breath and thus are in the very beginning of their military tenure.
