The Warriors

The Warriors Guild was founded to work within the city of Parrius, to uphold the ideal of the primacy of freedom. The Warriors hold their honour dear and their word sacred.

Founded on the 1st of Skyelong 883 by Conan, the Warriors are located in West Central Parrius. They have the profession of Knight and the guild alignment is Good/Neutral. The guild patron is Proteus.

Introduction:

  The Knight is a physical combatant. He or she is concerned with the study of physical prowess (weapons, melee, swordplay, endurance) rather than over the airy magical realms. Consider the Knight profession if you are fast, quick-witted or aggressive, but keen to keep simple and effective. They are strong in combat both offensively and defensively though rely on good maintenance of weapons, armour and equipment.

The Warriors are masters of sword-fighting and combat. They share their origins with the Knights of Mercinae; they were formed recently in the 8th Century by Conan of Parrius. This remarkable gentlelman burned with desire to build his own order in Parrius, having served a long term as guildmaster of the Knights. By his toil and worth efforts the guild was built - all but brick-by-brick by his own hands. Years later the Warriors grow from strength to strength. Many of the heroes and Barons of Parrius have been trained their halls. They retain strong and friendly links with the Knights of Mercinae and other goodly guilds.

Words of Conan, first guildmaster:

  If in your heart you feel the call of battle, the wish to fight with trusty steel, then join the Warriors. Those with honour, courage, self-discipline and dedication will succeed mightily in this guild, those without those traits will fail.

Saboteur (19yr), current guildmaster says the following about the guild:

  The warriors guild has risen like the phoenix from the flames of the old. The guild has changed much since it emerged from its trial by fire, and lessons have been learnt. The warriors guild is the perfect home for those who hear the call of combat in their very soul. Warriors aspire to greatness both in combat and out, and thus try to follow in the footsteps of legendary Guildmasters like Krill and Maleki.

With the skills of Chivalry, Endurance and Weaponry we are as competent and fearsome as any of the lands knightly guilds. It is our Trapping ability however, that sets us apart. Through cunning, wit and simple brute strength you can wield our skills and become one of the most fearsome fighting forces in the land.

The guild is perhaps the most anarchic of Avalon's Fighting Schools as it makes its home in Parrius: City Of Pirates. There is hardy brotherhood loyalty, and old fashioned blood and sweat that pours out of each members heart and into the refounding of this celebrated institution. Freedom! That is the foundation! Your loyalty demanded by the guild and honoured by the defence of your allies. As your heart sings with your blade so you will discover that respect must be
earned on the battlefield, and yet earned thricefold in the city.

"To Thine Own Self Be true" Lest your blade sing without passion and your actions be unguided.
