The Flag of Albion; Designed by Gallahand Harkness, first of his name. *Varelden Vasquez, the Second Constable of Albion enters the Square “Set One!” He shouts to the military. *The Military quickly lines up and stands at attention. Citizens of Albion spectate. {The Albion Dueling Festival} Varelden speaks: “At the beginning of the new Saint’s month, during The Sun’s Smile, a festival will be held to honor our military and fighting spirit. All men of Arcas are welcome to test their might against one another within Albion.” He begins handing out scrolls to each of the military personnel. “I will be hosting this festival myself and will be open to challenge to all who ask for it- And, Yes. There will be alcohol. Lots of alcohol...” He finishes handing out scrolls to his military personnel. They remain completely still. “At the end of the festival, our military will hold a tournament against itself in One-On-One combat fashion. Though it is much more important that our military fights as a team, we must both honor and hone each other’s skill on our own for if and when the time comes if it is needed. At the end of the tournament, the winner will be rewarded with a special prize towards their military career. Though, keep in mind that both Count Harkness and myself will be competing in this tournament. If you fail to overcome either of us in combat, no reward will be given at the end of the tournament.” He returns to the middle of the square to stand directly in front of them. ”Use the scroll I’ve handed each of you to spread word throughout the nation of our festival. I want this square to look like a battlefield in 3 Saint’s days.” Varelden clears his throat and begins speaking again, though his tone would begin to build, and thicken; “It’s time people realize our power and discipline. It’s about time we’ve made our mark on this continent; And what better way to demonstrate it with blades and gauntlets?” Though tempted to cry out, the soldiers would still remain completely still and silent. Varelden would resume his normal composure. “That is all for now. Ave Albion, Ave Harkness. Set Seven.” The soldiers would all shout out “Ave Albion,” and break formation after given their order. The Festival will take place on Sunday, June 2nd at 6 P.M. EST in the city of Albion. It will only be PvP Just come have fun, get some clicks in, and don’t be toxic.

Welcome to Albion

The Albion Crimson Brigade The Flag of Albion, designed by Gallahand Harkness, first of his name. “The Crimson Brigade, is a brotherhood founded on honor, duty and courage. Back to our very first founding members. When we inhabited the wildlands of Albion, our people went under siege from barbaric raiders in the nearby mountains. That’s when people stepped up to defend the place we wanted to make our home. Those men, doused in the Crimson blood of their enemies became known as the Crimson Brigade, the fiercest defenders of Albion who gave life and limb to protect what would become ours.” - Varelden Vasquez, Second Constable of Albion, to a group of new recruits. Tier 1 Ranks The bulk of the Crimson brigade. Most recruits of the Crimson Brigade end up as Wardens, but all soldiers have an equal chance of becoming more… An Officer. Draftee Newly enlisted, no powers above any others within the military. Assigned to Auxiliary. Payment 5 Mina for patrol rallies. 10 Mina for offensive raids. 25 Mina for defensive raids. 50 Mina for Warclaims. Armsman Co-Most Common Rank of military with Wardens. Still no powers above any others. Assigned to Auxiliary/Scout. Payment 10 Mina for patrol rallies. 15 Mina for offensive raids. 30 Mina for defensive raids. 75 Mina for Warclaims. Warden Co-Most Common Rank of military with Armsman. The True Bulk. You begin to gain respect from the military. You are now able to begin your days as a squire if chosen by 1 of 12 Knights. Along with this promotion, you are able to begin 1 of 3 basic professions. You are now eligible to be assigned to a decade based on profession. Payment 20 Mina for patrol rallies. 25 Mina for offensive raids. 50 Mina for defensive raids. 100 Mina for Warclaims. Professions Swordsmanship Those who choose this profession will fall into 1 of 3 categories. Short-swordsmen, Long-swordsmen, and Bastard-swordsmen, based on experience with each. If you prefer using an axe, you’d best learn how to fight with a sword. Just because you use an axe doesn’t mean you’re special. Archery Those who choose this profession will fall into 1 of 3 categories. Shortbowmen, Longbowmen, and Snipers. However, the Sniper category will not be available to Wardens as it is the 2nd tier of Archery. It is only available to Officers who specialize in this profession. (Sergeant+) Cavalry Cavalry is a tier profession that branches from both swordsmanship and archery. If you wish to pursue the Cavalry profession, you must first begin with either of the 2 professions. Based on experience, you will be considered for Horseback combat. Even though you have only specialized in one profession, you are still be expected to know both ways of combat. Tier II Ranks As you continue to gain more respect within the military, you will be promoted to an Officer. Officers will no longer receive pay for rallies and raids, only Warclaims. Officers are chosen for their commitment to the Role-play of the town and its aspects. There may be exceptions for payments based on certain deeds, but that is for you to find out. As an officer, you will be expected to form patrol groups often, hold training sessions, and recruit for enlistment. All ranks within the military will receive payment for recruiting for enlistment. (50 Mina) Sergeant The first tier of Officers. You shall begin to uphold your duties as officer. You will have command over all of the Tier I ranks, though you still must answer to higher ranking officers. 1 of 3 Sergeants will lead their decade in absence of their Lieutenant. (Sergeant commander to decade is assigned by Lieutenant.) 125 Mina for Warclaims. Lieutenant The second tier of Officers. You have authority over Sergeants and ranks below them. With this rank, you are expected to begin handing out pay to those who earned it. Lieutenants can lead their own decade that correspond to their own profession. (If you're a Lieutenant under the Archery profession, you will lead 9 others with the same profession.) It must consist of You, the Lieutenant, 3 Sergeants, and the rest Wardens of your choosing. (Must be within profession.) 150 Mina for Warclaims. Marshal The third and highest tier of Officers before Cavalierhood. You have full authority over the Crimson Brigade within reason. There will be 1 Marshal for every 3+ decades of corresponding profession. (1 Archery Marshal for 3+ Archery Decades, 1 Swordsmanship Marshal for 3+ Swordsmanship Decades, 1 Cavalry Marshal for 3+ Cavalry Decades.) Marshals are expected to keep an information loop with the Golden Cavaliers, and hold order within their cohort. 200 Mina for Warclaims. Earning Promotions The easiest way of getting a promotion is simply by being active. Show up to rallies and training sessions. Obey officers. To rise through the ranks is to gain respect from others within the military. If you respect your officers, they will respect you. City Defense. If the city falls, so does the military. Those who aid in successfully defending Albion from raiders will be heavily considered for a promotion. Warclaims. All Draftees and Armsmen who participate in a warclaim will automatically be promoted to Wardens. So you all best be active during the times of war! Recruitment. For every rank elevation, you must recruit 2 more people. Starting at Warden, you must recruit 2 people for a promotion. Sergeant, you must recruit 3. Lieutenant, 4. After Marshal, you cannot be promoted further. Earning Officer Ranks The faster the military grows, the more officers needed. Along with that, more positions will change. For every decade within the military, (10 soldiers) there are 1 Lieutenant, 3 Sergeants, and 6 Wardens. For every 3 decades, 1 Marshal. As said, the faster the military grows, the higher chance of ranks being changed. With the assignment of Marshal, 1 of 3 Lieutenants is chosen from 3 decades. That chosen Lieutenant will become Marshal. 1 of 3 Sergeants from the decade of the former Lieutenant will become the new Lieutenant. 1 of 6 Wardens will become the new Sergeant to take their place, and an unassigned Warden will join that decade. If no unassigned Wardens are present, an Armsman will be promoted to a Warden to fill the empty space. All rank promotions and demotions are all decided by the head of the military: The Constable.

The Grand Curonian County of Albion The Flag of Albion, Designed by Gallahand Harkness, first of his name The sturdy walls of Albion alit by torch The Ruling Family: -House Harkness: -Count Gallahand Harkness(Missing) -Count Gawain Harkness(Alive) History of House Harkness: The Harkness household, while only recently obtaining the lands of Albion, have stood for many generations. Starting on Axios with Gavin Harkness, and carrying through. A few generations later, Gallahand Harkness was born, first to bear his name. Overtime he gained a number of followers and together they built up Albion. Dark Times fell upon Albion and it led to an unlikely but welcome vassalisation under Curon where they were safe. Gallahand, tired after his work, mysteriously vanished leaving only his title to his nephew Gawain Harkness. The City of Albion: -Positions: -Constable(Filled): Varelden Vasquez -Head Steward(Vacant): -Stewards(Vacant): -Court Physician(Vacant): -General Advisor(Gantar Lythian): -Court Mage(Dael) All Positions offer pay, and interview as Albion only wants the best for its city. -Hot Spots: The Square Albion Square at daytime The Albion square is a hotspot for activity. Citizens often coming to the square for their daily gossip and business. Surrounded by houses and local businesses on all sides. An active smithy, and an under construction tavern. There are multiple open houses ripe for the taking. The Keep The Keep is the center of all business in Albion. Both the government and military are run in it. While rumors surround the secrets kept within, one thing is for sure. Without it, Albion would not be able to stand as tall as it does today. Albion’s History: Albion was established in 1707, the first men of Albion encountered a lot of problems with raiders coming from the mountains when first building. To settle this Gallahand founded the Crimson Brigade, the soldiers of Albion, who valiantly defended their camp during the first year. As they got more successful the attacks became more fierce, that is when Gallahand took his twelve best men, armed to the teeth in what they specialize into the nearby mountains where the raiders camp was. By midnight he led a sneak attack into their camp, and by morning all that was left was Gallahand and his men, those men became Golden Cavaliers, an honor Gallahand placed on them, essentially the knights of albion.
