Da Thrummaz'th Akvel ((Kings Guard))

[Dizzy771 900]

The Akvel

 

 

 

Who we are

 

The King's Guard, or Da Thrummaz'th Akvel as it is spoken in the old tongue, is an organization who pledge their lives to the safety of the king, and to bringing justice to anyone who dare defies him. Little is known to the public about them because all of the members' identities must remain secret. They are obliged to don the official black plate of the dwarven Akvel, and wear their unique helms at all times. There are only seven Akvel at a time. What little the public knows of them is mired in rumor and storys, adding to the mystique around the group. What is known is that not many people that are not many in the Akvel that are not dwarves. The few ever recorded to be in the Akvel that have not been dwarves have likely proven themselves as some of the most loyal persons to the king

 

What we do

 

Accept for protecting the king, the kingsguard is responsible for executions, interrogations, arrests, and other classified tasks (including clandestine tasks). They are also responsible for rooting out corruption in the government, and have the power to arrest corrupted officials.

 

 

Initiation

 

Initiation into the Akvel is harder than it seems. The kingsguard soldiers are trained professionals that can wield any weapon, do not feel pain, and have no mercy. They train from the day of their choosing to the final day of their initiation and continue doing so until they are released of service. Such training routines include hours of training at their chosen weapon, swimming in ice lakes naked, and climbing up and down the Azgoth mountains until told to stop. At the end of their training, an initiate of the kingsguard must duel with another initiate using only crude weapons a brutal fight to near death.. The survivor becomes a sworn brother, and dons the black plate of the guard while the loser is cast out of the order, stripped of all holdings in the land. Those who fail at obeying commands have a harsh fate, they are flogged for every day of their training by another initiate. This forces them to become battle hardened and fiercely loyal members that know nothing but to serve. By the end of their training an Akvel serves the king so loyally close to nothing will make them consider betraying him.

 

 

 

The Making of a King's Justice

 

The King's Justice is the brother of the kingsguard that comes out the most talented of them all.

This person is chosen to lead the kingsguard, making more war machines like himself. This merciless thing is also chosen to do the king's dirty work, such as executions, assassinations and the like. All Akvel are to report to the kings justice of any and all activities and will be assigned duties by the king or the kings justice. For another kings justice to be chosen there is a symbolic ceremony with the passing of the axe of the kings justice “Judgement” from the previous kings justice, or the king, to the next. The kings justice has the right to arrest any person inside the kingdom and preform an actions they deem necessary. They also have the ability to be present at all kings council meetings and lords meetings, both as a guard and to represent the kings interests should he be away.
