Joining the White Order º¨¦¨º º°”˜`”°”˜`”°º°*"˜.•°*"˜*"˜*:•. Training From consigning ones' self into the ranks of the White Order, you begin to dedicate yourself to a path to clarity and expertise; and all the knowledge entailed with the iron-fisted Mali that find themselves among the halls of legend. Aspirants and dregs alike receive formal combat training and skirmishing techniques; drilled day in and day out, till the most prevalent thoughts when one awoken were of polishing blade and armor. With that, a White Order recruit is also educated correct and effective use of multiple armor types, plate-mail and plate armor most of all; as well as some knowledge with a shield, however, less expertise lies with shield training compared to any other weapon or armor training. The White Order prides itself on its' education and structure; expecting men to adhere to a strict code regarding knowledge and competency in arts outside of the field of Valor. All are expected to contribute, regardless of rank; even dregs can often serve as tutors, ensuring everyone has something to offer in knowledge. Other, optional yet encouraged training and/or education are listed in the following (You'll be trained in RP as well as taught how to use the mechanics): - Crafting and gathering - Smithing - Archery - Basic strategy/Tactics ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ By enlisting into the White Order, you are not yet permitted to wear the white plate; there is only one type of uniforms which is open to use for the ranks, being the that being the starch "Standard Issue" uniforms. New recruits don't walk around with the gleaming white-plate armor marked with the White Order sigil engraved over its collar, only officers are within their right to adorn themselves with such armor. When you join, simply ask the one of the relevant Officers for a uniform and he shall have one made. ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ Rank Hierarchy The hierarchy of authority, or ranking system, within the White Order is fairly simple and easy to follow. The following is a list of the current ranks in order of least authority to highest authority: Force Positions: • [Neophyte.] (The man who do not yet consider themselves fully one of the White Order; unpurified, uninitiated, but respected. Provided with mild equipment, at the minimum supplied with chain or plate, a stock blade, and food once a week. ) • [ordo Sentinel.] (A true member who had donned the white plates. Considered to be disciplined if untrained and considered a worthwhile member of the Order. Supplied with a blade above typical quality and a full contingent of equipment upon reasonable request.) • [ordo Adjunct.] (Specialized units with specific purposes; from the standardbearer who holds the line, to the man who carries communications. Supplies vary upon purpose. ) • [ordo Vanguard] (A veteran who had wore the white plates as a second skin. Considered to be competent as well as disciplined; a well known member of the Order. Supplied with a blade above typical quality and a full contingent of enchanted equipment upon reasonable request.) NCO Positions: • [ordo Arbiter.] (An officer who keeps steady control of the ranks, often a second-in-command position. No specialty value.) CO Positions: • [ordo Tribune.] ( Officers who make critical decisions for the White Order when the Commander is away, generally considered second to the Executor.) • [ordo Executor] (Supreme Commander of the Orders' forces; generally serving a political and military purpose as the controller of the city) Specialty Positions: TBD NCO Ranks - The positions listed in the NCO ranks are those known as "Non-Commissioned Officers", as in, your authority other over members of the guild is limited. You don't make critical decisions, you don't train or teach other members, you don't wear the decorative White Order armor, and you don't lead. Your job as one of these members is to learn, discipline yourself, train, and observe. Your dedication, progress, and attitude will reflect the future outcome of your place in the White Order. A lesson learned within the ranks is that a man reaps what he sews. CO Ranks - The positions listed in the CO ranks are those known as "Commissioned Officers", which is a position of authority and leadership. If you are a CO, you are more than likely the result of well appreciated loyalty and hard work put into the guild, or better yet you have proved yourself to be an instructor of new recruits. As a Tribune, you likely have a specific job other than simply being a trainee and the muscle for the Order. This specific job will suit your position as an officer. ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ Enlisting Fill out an application format and send it to the White Order (Post below) or contact a recruiter. All who join the Order are required to enlist for a certain amount of years, though they can only serve for a maximum of twenty five years. * Name (MC as well): * Race: * Reason for wanting to join the Order: *Years enlisting: 5 [ ] 10 [ ] 15 [ ] 20 [ ] ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ White Order Law By breaking these laws within the Guild, you will be subject to punishment at the discretion of the Executor. Disobeying these rules is to break your oath to the Order and to dishonor your honor. • Do not disobey the counsel or instruction of your superiors. They give orders for a reason, not to make your life miserable. • Do not harm, wish harm to, steal from, or dishonor another White Order member(s). They are your brothers and sisters and would give their life for your own. • Do not assault anyone, or cause discord in foreign lands, or threaten others. We work with society to protect the people and assert order, not to inflate chaos and violence. • Do not insult or disrespect nobility. • To dishonor yourself is to dishonor the Guild. • Do not draw arms or bear armors, unless in uniform, in a place we are unfamiliar with. The White Order does not wish to threaten or stir uneasiness in foreign lands. • Desertion from the White Order is dishonorable, and will result in shaming and excommunication from the White Order. More laws to come with time. ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ Allies and partnerships • "Dwarven Empire" - Liege Lords - Owners of the territory controlled by the Order. ¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜¨ˆ´´˜“°'°”`˜*•¯¨`¨˜ˆ¤´´˜“°'*'°”`˜` ¤ˆ˜¨´¨¯•*˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨˜“°'°”`˜`ˆ¨¨ Guild To-Do's - Set up a payroll for recruits and members. - Set up a hierarchy of medals/ribbons to award members for well appreciated services and duties. - Set up a treasury and elect a treasurer. - Complete construction of guild hall (40% done).
