About: ?There is one certainty, and that is death?
The greatest battle a warrior must face is the battle against fear. All who take the life of the mercenary have emerged victorious from this conflict. When death is no longer feared, an obstacle becomes a tool. This tool shall not be used in the name of politics, honour, justice or love. The services of the Guild may only be called upon in exchange for currency. A life is worthless, until a bounty is placed upon it. Beyond that, your motivations are not our concern.
?Death is the only law, and we are its masters?
Our world is one of chaos, not order, and strength inevitably triumphs ? the Guild is a bastion of strength and, inevitably, it shall triumph. If you are weak, our strength may be purchased. The guild offers a range of services, a range of prices, and a range of operatives. The harder the job, the higher the price; the more experienced the operative you choose to employ, the more you must pay. Espionage, guild wars, body guarding, armed escort, garrisoning ? all are within our abilities, as long as they are within your budget. If you have the gold, we have the steel.
?We are a brotherhood of blood?
Be aware, that while the Guild is above the petty squabbles of politics, and its primary motivation is the pursuit of wealth, its members are loyally bound to each other through their knowledge of pain. Treachery shall not be tolerated, whether between members or from outsiders. The pride of the Guild shall at all times be maintained, and shall be mortally defended by its champions if it is challenged. Therefore, do not doubt that to cross us is to welcome death, no matter how much you can pay.
If, having read and understood the above, you wish to join our ranks or are prepared to purchase our services, then welcome to the home of the Mercenary Guild.
Ranks: Apprentice -Apprentices are the lowest point of the guild, everyone will start as an apprentice. As an apprentice you will be paid nothing. If you prove yourself worthy you will go through the initiation process to become a fully fledged member of the guild.
Initiate -Once you have proven yourself you will go through the initiation process where you will tell a Champion why you want to join the guild and give him/her a brief description of your character.
Foot Soldier -If your skills in combat are good enough you will be promoted to a foot soldier you are now the basic combat unit, however at this point you have very little independence, you must still follow orders explicitly and your group will be led by at least a veteran.
Mercenary To get yourself to this level you will have to show exceptional skills in combat compared to your fellow foot soldiers. from this point on you will be given more independent missions that may be less team based, and you will have an element of decision making in guild issues.
Veteran -Once you know pretty much all there is to know about mercenary life you will be considered for this rank. This rank provides a fair amount of status as from now on you will hold some leadership over the lower ranks.
