The Army of the North - ᚼᛁᚱ ᚾᚬᚱᚦᚱᛚᛅᚾᛏᛅ

[Iulius 206]

 

 

ᚼᛁᚱ ᚾᚬᚱᚦᚱᛚᛅᚾᛏᛅ
THE NORTHERN HOST

Issued by Iulius-Thegn Rauðrdrakar, on the 14th of EIRIKSSTANDA, IAÁ 587, AGE OF DRAGONFYRE; 

 

 

HEED, ELDHIRD

It is now a time of merriment, as we finally stand once more. Our people once again gather and laugh, enjoying the warmth and safety of their homes. We finally have a King upon the Ashwood throne, a new leader for our tribe. We once again gather in our temples, hold our rituals, and teach of our Faith.

 

This must be defended, the walls must be manned, our ranks strengthened, our blades and minds kept sharp against the enemies of the North. The toll cannot fall only upon our valiant Purifiers, warriors of the Faith against the filth of the Long Dark. In this era of militarism, in which bandits and Grendel haunt the roads and threaten our safety, in which the other armies and mercenary groups evolve, the Kingdom needs to answer and move in kind.  

 

It is with this in mind that I, with the blessing of His Majesty Haraldr Sigmar Haakonsson, declare the formation of the Northern Host.

 

ORGANIZATION

 

THEGN OF THE CAPITAL - ᚦᛁᚴᚾ ᚼᚬᚠᚦᛋᛏᛅᚦᛅᚱ

HUSKARL - ᚼᚢᛋᚴᛅᚱᛚ

They are senior officers, appointed by the Thegn of the Capital and responsible for large units. They see the Thegn’s orders implemented at operational level, oversee training, logistics and discipline within their command, manage and coordinate officers underneath them.

LEVYMEN - ᚼᛁᚱᛘᛁᚾ

The newly enlisted personnel, not yet integrated in the army. They assist the guardsmen in their duties, join their training and battles, so as to both learn and show loyalty to the Kingdom.
