| Mercenary
During the founding there was a great turmoil in the lands of Aarchon
and the demand for experienced warriors were huge. During these harsh
times a group of battle honed individuals left their former clans to
unite and fight together for other clans, taking money and favors as
payment. This group fought for different employers for some time, men
without names and goals, all doing battle for different reasons. Some
for the money, some to quell the noise of their own demons and some
fought only for the sake of the battle itself. For a long time they
battled, and one day they looked at themselves. Their numbers had grown
and they were no longer the vagabond outcasts they had once been. Men
who once had nothing now had the respect, trust and loyalty of
eachother. And they had a name, they were the Mercenaries.
Mercenary is set up as a military organization in several different
aspects. A person that have been in any sort of military organisation
would probably recognise the names of different ranks. Also, obedience
to ones superiors is the first law one learns when joining their ranks,
direct orders must never be questioned. Mercenary fights for whoever
pays the best, in money, favors or other means. Power is all that
matters and resources is power. Everyone is welcome to join the clan as
long as they are willing to devote their total loyalty to it.
Although orders must be obeyed at all times, to become an officer you must
show that you do not seek the position for your own glory or for the
ability to boss people around. Rather a officer should always do his
best to see to it that his soldiers are in good shape and spirit and see
to their needs before his own. Upon joining Mercenary the individual is
put under rigorous training, both physical and mental. If the recruit
later shows that he has completed all goals in the training he will be
promoted into the clan and here he receives a fresh start. If a person
completes his training period all old grudges and differences with other
members already in the clan considered forgotten and all crimes said
person have done before entering the training are nullified.
