Hroth's Decree: Any who should break and disrespect the sacred chain of command will be punished with death. If you wear the badge of Gogel's brother and sisterhood, then you have consented to be killed should you betray us in any way shape or form. ((OOC speaking: If your character dies, delete or be excommunicated.))
NOTICE: This branch of the Order is inactive, and contains no members. General Hroth is away on duty by the Dark Queen. For inquiries, contact [email protected] by carrier pigeon.
Royalty
((These are 'hero' characters specifically related to the guild mythos; you must be a long-time and trusted member to apply for creating a Royal Character, they hold the highest rank within the guild, way above the overseer.))
(none)
High Overseer / Caretaker of the Temple
H'roth Dee'arteegus (Hroth)
Trusted Lich or Dark Mage advisors to the Overseer, rank is equal to Commander.
INACTIVE
(Once the back-bone of the great Ganymide Empire, the Khettatan Guard is the brunt force of the Order, they are dedicated brothers and sisters at arms. Promotion is based on loyalty and service, desertion punished by death. The Guard also has its share of brute-races, Orcs and Ogres and the such. The really smart ones sometimes even get promoted.)

Militia Captain: none
Militia: INACTIVE
Cultists and Advisors:
(These are considered 'civilian' characters who are not under army-law. They have the freedom to study and reside at the fortress as they wish, and must be treated with respect by all legions, however they are still bound to the Order rules and are subject to death for betrayal, are not allowed to give orders to ANYONE except slaves and outsiders, and can potentially be drafted during a time of war, or suffer expulsion.
A loyal Temple Keeper has the potential to ascend to higher ranks, including ones with military authority, through dedicated work and loyalty; generally with specified positions appointed by the Overseer.
Temple Keepers are expected, but not required, to defend any fortress belonging to Gogel with their lives.
Temple Keepers (Standard rank): INACTIVE
~~~
Slaves and Servants
NONE
~~~
The Dead and Banished:
((These characters are considered dead to the guild. If you see them online in TK. Do NOT interract with them. It means they refused to comply with a death-match or execution.))
none
A note on Sentry position:
This is essentially a "trainee" rank. This is so interested players can easily jump on board the storyline, however I am watching you like a hawk, and if you do anything stupid you're not going to have a second-chance, you're going bye-bye. By the time you get to the next available rank (like Enforcer or Reborn Trooper) then you're considered a "trusted" member of the Order.
Note on Recruitment:
Read the membership guidelines and the section on character creation, the entire thing. Then contact me by mail ([email protected]) or in-game (Hroth). Usually you'll be 'tested', it involves a quick fight using BCS rules. Most people who go through this process and RP decently will become a Sentry. Additionally, most people who are clearly skilled and interested in the storyline will be able to become a 'civilian' with just a little RP.
Note on Resignation:
Even though desertion is "punished by death", the truth is that if your character really needs to leave the guild because you can't keep up with it-- don't worry about it, just send me an E-mail and let me know what's going on. That death penalty more applies to back-stabbing or jumping ship for a cowardly IC reason.
Note on Anonymity: Insecure about having your name on this roster? Afraid other RP'ers might see you on here and decide to gank you because you're a baddie? E-mail me, and I'll fill your slot with "Hidden"
