“This will certainly be interesting.” The aging Feldmarschall declared as he continued to look though his paper from the days new. “Perhaps I should make an attempt as being more social for the sake of the court.”

The well aged Feldmarschall looked down at the notice on his desk. “Hmm I shall have to call for a meeting of the seats of the military to properly meet Sir Varik as a military leader.” Wilhelm said as he moved on to other papers.

"Death for a Reinmaren is simply their next ride." Wilhelm mumbled to himself as he got the news. "He shall be waiting for the rest of us ready to ride the skies for eternity." Wilhelm said as he continued to groom his mount.

Wilhelm could not remember the last time he had openly wept. But as he sat in his office. The aging Fledmarschall could stop the tears from coming. For the woman who had been his only caretaker in his life as a young adult had passed. Another light inside of him flickered and failed as sorrow over took him. “Thank you Lady Josefina.. save me a spot in the skies with you for you will be some of the first family I see.” Wilhelm wrote onto a page in front of him before taking a candle out onto his balcony and lighting it ablaze while he said a silent prayer for his voice had been lost to him.

Wilhelm von Berkhoven looked over the the paper before rolling it up carefully and placing it in his armor to be removed only once the war ended. "The Banners of Reinmar shall fly once more over the field of battle." Wilhelm mumbled to himself as he placed on his Feldmarchall's sash preparing for the battle to come.

MÄNNERBUND DES HEILIGEN JOHANNES THE HOST OF SAINT JOHANN, GUARDIANS OF REINMAR THE HYMN OF SAINT JOHANN Composed by Gottfried Barclay in the year of our lord 1967 SÖHNE UND TÖCHTER VON REINMAR, “A Unified Reinmar” - The collective wishes of the Barclays of Reinmar and of Minitz. Formed in the days of old, the Warband of Theoderic was a stray gathering of souls with no land to call home, composed of brave, adventurous Reinmaren men to seek glory and the prosperity of their tribe. Led by the Barclay cousins Leon and Dietrich, they paved the way forwards for the County of Minitz. With time they were reformed into an organized military arm of the newly lifted Duchy and Grand Principality of Minitz and served through countless wars from Glebite War to the Adrian Rebellion of 1916 and the Aevos Coalition War. Theoderic’s Warband paved the way for what we today call and enjoy home, a unified Reinmar, the standing bastion of Reinmaren traditions and culture. The Landsers were birthed from the flames of The War of Two Emperors as bannermen of House Barclay. The Landsers would serve as auxiliary forces in the battles initially, doing irregular military tasks such as escorting, harassing and skirmishing irregularly during the war. Drawn by the esteemed Saint Tylos Barclay and Wilheim Barclay, the Landsers were drafted to be a formidable military force within battle, serving bravely in the War of Two Emperors. They would play a role in catching and executing a few enemies, and many Landsers are known to be veterans of many battles that have occured during the war. With the Landsers fight finished after the war of the two Emperors, there would be a decline in number, until the Adrian Rebellion of 1916 and the rising threat of the Mori Forces demanded their return. Their numbers swelled once more and would skirmish in and around Haense fending off the Mori and Adrian’s alike. Before continuing the fight later when they were called up to serve in the Covenant wars against the Veletzian League. To this day the Landsers march as they always have, with the Reinmaren Eagle Blazing overhead. The merger of the Warband of Theoderic, and Landsers stands as a strategic and culturally enriching initiative, consolidating the historical strengths of each entity into a unified force. By combining the battle-hardened experience of Theoderic's Warband, and the versatile skills of the Landsers, the merged organization becomes a formidable military presence. This alliance not only ensures comprehensive protection for House Barclay but also fosters unity and mutual respect among members from diverse backgrounds, thereby preserving and advancing Reinmaren and Waldenian cultural heritage. The merger symbolizes a continuation of House Barclay's historical legacy, creating a powerful and cohesive entity that is well-equipped to face the challenges of the realms and uphold the proud traditions of its predecessors. Thus, shall the brothers and sisters of Reinmar ride once more, under the banner of green and blue with an eagle at their backs, axe in hand.

“Another bravely soul for the skies may his soul rest forever.” Wilhelm spoke before quickly dismissing himself, in attempt to save face as the pain of loosing what amounted to a nephew to him. Was to much for him

As their Lord rode off to battle, the sounds of "Wer Rasted, Der Rostet" could be heard chasing him, as he grew further away from the rest of the Landsers. "Alright lads lets get it done." Wilhelm called, before the roar of the cannonade drown out anything else.

“May the prince never no sorrow in the skies.” Wilhelm spoke softly as he stood silently for a time. In a show of respect. “Wer Rastet, Der Rostet, good prince I shall see you in the skies when I have done all there is for me to do.”

"It is the end of an era." Wilhelm said with a tired smile, the aging soldier had spent his life with the Duke. He was happy to see him get his rest. "Wer Rastet, Der Rostet my Lord!".

Chronicles of the Reinmaren The Fall of the Ferryman Keep Issued by the HAUPTMANN OF REINMAR On this 11th day of Sun’s Smile of 157 E.S. To The Reinmaren People and All It Concerns On this day the Forces of Reinmar and Minitz joined in the fight with Covenant against the forces of Veletz and their allies. The action started with the Covenant rallying together and the siege embankment. With the Forces of the Reinmaren, taking their places in the ranks which held the back of the great earthen embankment as the cannon’s roared to life nad began to pound away, along side the trebuchets then opened up a barrage of shot and shell against the enemies siege engines. With the Covenant siege weapons utterly obliterating the enemies without a single shot land even close to our own. The Veletzians only significant gain was the managed to send some skirmishers and were able to spike our cannonade. However the Trebuchets continued to fire till nearly the entire keep had been obliterated on the southern side. After nearly two saints hours of discipline as the Veletzians continued to harass our camp on horseback the order was finally given to sally forth out of our siege camp. After a few pushes in which the Covenant missed the mark. We finally managed to engaged the enemy after a feigned retreat. And managed to hold them at the main breech fighting them over scorched land and on the rubble of their once feared keep. After the battle raged, slowly but surely their forces within the keep began to fall and their failed flank from one of their many cowardly tunnels having to fall back. We were able to completely take the keep pushing them out, after around Ten Saints Minutes their remaining forces gave up hope and fell back leaving the keep or what was left of it firmly in the hands of the Covenant. With the Reinmaren forces bringing and forming their core of the Covenant, and taking their part in the victory. After everything was said and done victory was taken in hand and Gott’s Boons were placed on us as the Warband of Reinmaren, returned to their homes to live and celebrate another day. Saint Edmond, as my brothers go to battle over the coming years, grant them fortitude and protect them. Pray for God to show mercy to the dead, and that in hoping for victory today, we may win the peace tomorrow. GOTT MIT UNS, Hauptmann of Reinmar

Campaign Report Action Report -The Spire Still Stands- Issued by the HAUPTMANN OF REINMAR On this 12th day of Sun’s Smile of 156 E.S.

Where the combined force obliterated a force from Veletz returned an uneasy peace to the lands. This was started by a rouge noble house stassion, murdered the king of Aaun in cold blood, then attempted to flee when a the coalition forces arrived and chanced them across the waters around Whitespire. Before getting word of a Veletz rally heading for Aaun, as such we took up positions inside the city, after a few moments of back and forth the coalition drove deep into the enemies line and crushed them between the gate and their steel! May the Reinmaren win many more victories. Wer Rastet, Der Rostet Saint Edmond, as my brothers go to battle over the coming days, grant them fortitude and protect them.

Campaign Report Action Report Operation Spook Issued by the HAUPTMANN OF REINMAR On this 18th day of Sun’s Smile of 150 E.S. To the people of Reinmar and Fellow Landsers! On this day in the second age of the year of our lord 150. The Landser Von Reinmar raided a weapons caravan of the Mad Baron, with 4 Landsers and himself. Wilhelm von Berkhoven prepared a trap for the enemy. Three men, under the commander of Oberlandser Klaus Berkhoven, took positions above the ridge. When the first mule in the caravan passed below them, Klaus, Daemon, and Samuel loosed a volley of Arrows and stones that stopped the leading mule dead in its tracks. As well as took out one of the four men with the mule. At the same time, further below Earendil, followed the prepared plan, blew the Horn of Reinmar, and made a bunch of noise as he charged up the hill. This sudden sound spooked the remaining mules in the caravan that had fallen behind. Leaving the other teams no choice but to retreat with their mules to prevent them from slipping down the steep cliffs and losing even more of their deadly goods. After the initial attack, the trio of remaining guards began to scramble up the hill to Klaus' group as well as to avoid what they assumed was an entire wave of cavalry reinforcements. However, another volley from Samuel and Daegon saw them halted in their advance, only to be hit shortly after by a well-placed Gott's Flame Potion that left one man barely breathing and one with toasted legs. At the same time, Wilhelm had joined Earendil on horseback and began charging toward where they assumed the rest of the caravan would be retreating. However, they charged head-first into two heavily armored cavalrymen and quickly got stuck in a two-on-two cavalry duel. Klaus quickly descended the hill to finish off the trio of caravan guards only to find them completely helpless, as the only one still in fighting shape had burnt his hands while putting out his comrades. In an act of mercy, many believe is due to the Lorraine necklace that the remaining guard clucked as he begged for mercy for him and his friends. Oberlandser Berkhoven agreed and told them to remember the mercy of Gott and to seek the church to do penance for their sins. The final act of the battle came with a final clash of the cavalry as the Wilhelm pulled a dirty trick on his enemy and stuck his halberd to the side, catching the young enemy off guard and ripping him from his horse with the spike of his halberd. While Earendil used the battle standard of the Landsers to confuse his enemy and managed to finish off his foe with a clean stab between the helmet and chest plate, cutting the jugular. The battle ended with Wilhelm offering quick prayer for their sins of killing others. Before a short celebration of cries of 'Gott Mitt Uns'. Before returning to the safety of Reinmar to patch up wounds and prepare for the next engagement. Saint Edmond, as my brothers go to battle over the coming days, grant them fortitude and protect them. Pray for God to show mercy to the dead, and that in hoping for victory today, we may win the peace tomorrow. GOTT MIT UNS, Hauptmann of Reinmar

THE FIRST CRUSADE OF REINMAR A REPORT ON EVENTS LAST SAINT’S DAY Issued by the HAUPTMANN OF REINMAR On this 13th day of Joma and Umund of 496 E.S. TO THE PIOUS MEN AND WOMEN OF REINMAR AND WHOMEVER THIS MAY CONCERN, A most momentous event took place on the last Saint’s Day in the year of our Lord. After the concussion of the dual weddings of Helfgott - Berkhoven and Helfgott - Burke. The mad Necromancer Funnybone and his ilk graced Reinmar's firm towers with the blood of man and beast alike in a show of their disgusting cruelty. However, within the walls of Reinmar was the truest form of faith before GOTT. Men and women of multiple races from across Aevos had come to support the most holy union of the two happy couples. So when the party guests, as well as the brides and grooms, saw the cruel action, all quickly ran into action. Under the loose command of Hauptmann von Reinmar but mostly with the Lord’s divine grace on them, the diverse group of Canonist forces engaged the foul darkspawn who had foolishly remained bear witness to the Lord’s wrath. NOTED PARTIES HOUSE OF WEISS Lord Walter and his Wife Marian Weiss, Who had come to the wedding, lived entirely up the name of the ever-zealous House of Wiess, both of them joining the front line against the heretic shield wall. With Walter landing, an important hit on the dark spawn with the House Holy Blade. KNIGHTS OF SAINT JUDE The Knights of Saint Jude appeared in force at the battle, taking the bulk of the front line against the enemy shield wall. Their most holy force held the line against the dark spawn line for the bulk of the battle, aided by other good men of Canonism. And prevent their taint from moving even an inch closer to Reinmar once the battle began. The Landser would like to express their utmost respect for the knights of Saint Jude and their desire to work together again, as their order in battle was exemplary. We were also honored to see a new faithful join their ranks after the battle. LANDSERS VON REINMAR The Landsers von Reinmar, including all four of those who had their wedding just prior, stood fast alongside their Waldenian Brothers, with Particular not to a very amusing fireball fired by Oberlandser Mage Arthur Burke, which caught the scum Funny Bone causing him to eventually flee the battle screaming. 'Put it out! Put it out!' as well as Leutnant Avya Berkhoven, who slides the massive head from the bear-sized flesh golem. Overall, the Landsers all conducted themselves well according to their roles. Using properly combined warfare with magic, alchemy, and slayer-steel brute force. FORCES OF MINITZ The Forces of Minitz, including their templar, managed to break into the center of their formation, with their templar blasting and shutting down any more range attack from the Iblees forces. The Prince of Minitz Ferdinand Barclay, standing and fighting alongside his cousin, his Princely Grace Manfred Barclay, the second. PERSONAL MENTIONS Laurissa von Haense for her efforts in targeting the most dangerous of the enemy and going to great physical lengths for our holy cause. The House of Colborn, while they may not have intended it, sent a very big soldier in a small package. MESSAGE TO THE FAITHFUL Canonism won the battle this day, but the war rages on as Iblees forever attempts to corrupt our world. So never let your sword dull or become ignorant to corruption, for he who rests rests. Wer Rastet, Der Rostet. With the glory of Gott's victory in your hearts. I encourage you reading this missive to remember we are Gott's blades, and our one true enemy is Iblees. So, never turn your back on your fellow canonist, no matter their secular allegiance. Now, all good canonists, go with Gott and steel yourselves against corruption! CLOSING PRAYER Saint Edmond, model of all knights, possess me not with fear; grant me peace and strength in the hour of battle. Let God think not on my faults but on my potential. I swear that if I come through this day with courage, I will strive to embody the honour that thou didst: I shall show clemency to the prisoner, give succour to the widow and spare the peasant. Amen! GOTT MIT UNS, ,Hauptman of Reinmar Thank you to @Petsch2k@Trey@Balthasar for playing the baddies and giving everyone a fantastic event!

“Thank you Lord GOTT for hearing our call and allow your faithful servant Sister Calliope to come wash away the foulness of battle.” The Hauptmann of Reinmar, spoke after quickly departing the jubilation after the battle to go pray in thanks for the miracle of Sister Calliope.

"Why must the good always pay the price." Came the quiet mumble from Wilhelm's mouth as he walked with crunching steps, through Valdev. As he said a quiet prayer for the family of his good friend. "Do Thou, O Lord, have mercy on our dearly departed, for the sake of us sinners all who greatly hope and trust in Thee. For Thy mercy can turn bittering weeping to joyous fanfare, for Thou alone judgeth the living and the dead." With a somber sign of the Lorraine Wilhelm would continue his short patrol of the the capital, and trudge back out with a heavy heart.

"Glad to see Ser Arthur taking things in hand." Wilhelm commented as he read the missive. "This is very much what I hoped to see from him. I shall have to bring the Landsers out to support him when I can."

Hey man I know the feeling, if you’re not totally put off by the idea of military rp. I run a Landsknechts inspired rp group that does military drill and DIY events often. We are pretty open to all characters. And we provide pay and housing for characters who join. if you like light mil sim rp and a Crp focused mentality you can reach me at Irishmanmichael on discord.

Wilhelm von Berkhoven spots the crude missive and mumbles to himself. "First heretics now beavers, Landsers going to have to earn double pay this year."
