Vanguard

The Vanguard at Spring War '06

Rank Structure

Each member of The Vanguard is ranked according to his skill and valor starting with the lowly Acolyte all the way to the mighty Dragon Lord himself.

Non-Combatant

Acolyte

• The Acolytes of the Vanguard are devoted souls who, for whatever reason, are unable to fight. Some are too old, others too young, some have taken vows of non aggression. All creatures of the light are welcome to seek shelter within the Vanguard camps, and many do. The Acolytes serve as armorers, weapons crafters, and also scribes.

Interim

Broodling

• Broodlings are the lowest rank of fighters. They are the untested troops who have yet to see real combat. There are never very many Broodlings in the army, For after their first battle they are either promoted or dead.
