A religious army by most definition, though with the allowance of non-believers to partake and join it, the army holds quite a variety of Ranks, Jobs, and Opportunities one could ask for, where slaves could rise to honorable positions, and nobles humbled to the average foot soldier. Formed when the great sandstorm sent by Allah took the Fakhr Oasis, the wandering refugees found their home upon the Mountain Oasis, settling it and forming their military to defend themselves from the constant growth of enemies and undead roaming the sands. Having sent even an exploratory regiment to go partake in several Jihads and Wars around the world From the War against the Undead, to the Balian-Aaun war, To the War of the Foreigners, to gain experience, and now a fearsome reputation of highly disciplined and dedicated warriors, ready to lay down their lives for Allah and Emirate.

 

Benefits

Conscription of the Falcon

It is one of the only ways to join the Fursaan Al-Saqr, otherwise known as the Knights of The Falcon, or the Janissary Corp. Though the life of these conscripts to enter such a prestigious corp holds a high mortality rate due to it’s in depth system to create ‘the perfect soldier’. Though with such conscription comes a high level of respect due in the Emirate, for once passing and being brought to the rank of Janissary, it is an Achievement like no other, and certainly demands the respect for difficulty to achieve such.
