The Alrasian Order - Recruiting Now.

[Aislin 4354]

A large noticeboard has been erected in the Alras Commons, drawing the attention of dozens. In the center is a long piece of crisp, new parchment. It is composed in neat and elegant handwriting, the ink an exotic color, a strange dye.

Men and women of Alras,

For years, ever since the departure of the original High Constable, Sir Drae'on Wyvernos, our military has faced obstacles. Some were small, some large, some insurmountable. Yet today, after countless High Constables, reform, corruption and departures, the Alrasian Order has been reborn. The years of the Order were our strongest, and I intend to resurrect the Order, and we shall be strongest in nigh all of Asulon.

Under the command of myself we have reformed, restructured and been reborn, for the last time. The Order shall live past my years, past any of yours, even past the day when our King's crown rusts. If there comes a day where Alras lies in ruin, vines engulfing our homes and rats living within, the Order shall have been the first to fight, the first to challenge death, and the last to have fallen.

By any and every God that may exist, I hereby swear to you that you are safe. You, as Alrasians, can now sleep a sound sleep with the knowledge that this Order stands, our weapons sharp, our wits strong and our conviction unshakeable. We do not serve God, the temptation of the coin, not even our High King Syrio. We live, breathe and die for the streets of Alras and those who walk them.

I swear it on my very soul, as do my men.

Signed,

Lord Aislin Danok

You may apply a maximum of 3 times.

((Currently, our military is the finest RP military on the server. We would likely lose to most nations in a war, but our RP is fantastic and I am exceedingly proud of this. I do not want to let lazy, PvP-oriented players to ruin this, and I strive to ensure that we continue to have the best RP on this server.

The application is you showing you to me. If I have never seen you before, this is your only chance to impress me. And if I'm not impressed, I will deny you without hesitation. So, I want you to spend a lot of time on your app. 10-30 minutes is a good amount. I went looking for my original application to the guard, but the thread deleted. I wrote up this sample application in 15 minutes so you could have an idea of what I'm looking for.))

Sample Application:

Name ((RP and MC)):

John The Farmer ((MrMinecraftguy))

Age ((IC and OOC)):

48 ((15))

Combat skills:

I was born and raised a farmer in Laurelin, my parents pacifists that despised violence and killing within Aegis. When the other boys went outside to pretend they were Wardens and fight each other with wooden swords and their own fists, I was a slave to the fields, harvesting for our very survival.

However, bandits have been a problem in every location within society, for as long as there was hate within life, and our little farm in Laurelin was no exception. After three of our prized cattle went missing within a weeks' time, I began to practice the bow in my spare time, me being too weak for a heavy blade (much like my father). I continued to finish my work as quick as possible so I could practice with my little bow. I grew decent enough with it, and can shoot well enough to hit a bandit or two hell-bent on torching my crops.

((35 bows))

Non-combat skills:

Though I enjoyed practicing with my dearest bow, my life was dedicated to the hoe. Harvesting, ploughing and all other sorts of farming terms that you wouldn't understand was the language I spoke, and I was fluent. I have yet to find a halfling as adept a farmer as I; I could plant a seed in the snows of Hanseti and turn it into gold.

((100 farming))

Experience:

I have no experience in any military organization, but I have always lived a life of service to family, nation and self. I will continue to embody this philosophy until the day I die, and I hope this will be on the frontlines, in the heat of battle, falling to the blade of a great warrior whose name shall be sung by bards for years to come.

Why you want to join:

I want to join because Alras has been my home for many years. Though I grew up in Laurelin, living the life of a peaceful farmer, my heart belonged to Alras once we moved to Asulon. The nearby Mori threat frightened me, and I saw them kill and enslave many dear to me, but I found myself helpless to save them. Fear overwhelmed me like Iblees did Aegis so many years ago, and I fled across the ocean in a small wooden boat I got from the High Elves. I went straight, or as straight as one can in a small boat, and continued to walk straight once I hit land. I stumbled upon the beginnings of Alras, still just a tent camp, and lent my hoe to Anora Firmheart, a more talented farmer than even I. I worked on the farms for many years, almost 20 in fact, and had a comfortable life in Alras, growing to love the community and our leader, High King Syrio.

But I began to grow anxious, and I experienced a sense of unfulfillment in my life. For years I had heard the call of duty with my marvelously pointy ears, but had neglected it, and watched my friends answer it, and often perish because of it. Alras is a land that has loved me in the face of my love towards it grounds and soil, and I feel this is a place that I should be willing to die to defend. As such, I want to serve among the ranks of the Ram and defend our people.

Also, I heard Lord Aislin is perhaps the greatest person alive.

Other: I am friendly and willing to learn, but sometimes cower in the face of criticism or abuse.

((Military uniforms here))

War is coming, lads. Salvus' corruption and abuse of its people shall last no longer, and we shall be the blade that falls on their evil. Sharpen your blades, tighten your bows and train hard, for we shall march soon.

*Petrus shivers when he sees the word Order, but gets a smile on his face when he read along.*

Great initiative!

Aislin notices the pudgy dwarf struggling with his uniform and chuckles.

I'll have Gorum set you up with a new one, he struggled with his as well.

[MrSyth 637]

Thanks a lot, but if I may ask, What rank am I?

[Gorum© 623]

Thanks a lot, but if I may ask, What rank am I?

You'd have to speak with the constable about that, untill then you are but a soldier.

[MrSyth 637]

That's ehh... Dissappointing.
