The Caerulean Guard

Hraunhirden (the hraunhird/hirden for short) also known as The Vrolgian Guard or The Vrolgian Order is an elite and secretive mercenary unit and religious order based in the great city of Porta Fiume on the western Vastallosi Coast, whose members serve as personal bodyguards of the Vrolgar Konung and Council.

Hailing from Masgar-Vrolgar Fruila, these mercenaries serve as both bodyguards and protectors the cultural heritage of Fruila, effectively protecting the Fumian people groups's interest against subversive individuals and groups. Originally formed by Savii Myrknir Jarl, then Signoria, on LostCoastlines’s orders, these troops were chosen to be his personal bodyguards because of their nearly unwavering loyalty to him.

The primary role of Hraunhirden are as bodyguards, performing ceremonial duties and police work. When utilized on the battlefield, however, their elite status, coupled with their cunning strategies, insightful intelligence and quality equipment, make them a fearsome foe to face.

The organization was founded by Myrknir Jarl with the aim of "protecting the cultural heritage of Fruila", effectively protecting the Fruilan Savii's interest against subversive individuals and groups.

Organization
Hraunhirden operate under a strict military hierarchy. They seldom recruited locals to aid in their missions, except in the cases of advisers or wilderness guides.

Ranks
The Hraunhird comprised six hierarchical ranks. In descending order of authority they are:

Hirðhersir (Hersir - shortened)
Leader of the Hird and is Guided by Fadir Krakraun's and Modir Mánesyn’s Sight. This status is not to be held with low regard and is the head of the Hird; The Hersir's powers can overrule most if not all things within The Ravungian Order.They usualy also act as the Seiyðr unless anyone else is appointed. (Prerequisites: Founder, Stallare)

Stallare
The Hirðhersir’s appointed co-leaders that also act as commanders of war/battle. They also advise the Hersir in diplomatic decisions, and have higher jurisdiction in these matters than the Seiyðr (Prerequisites: Huskarl)

Seiyðr
The Religious Leader of the ravungian people who advises the Hersir in prophetic dreams and diplomatic decisions. The Seiyðr oversees pilgrimage sites and grades the studies/research of these sites when testing Stallare, Huskarls, and hirdmenn. They also try to spread the influence of ravungic to other nations and groups (including guiding foreign or native pilgrims). (Prerequisites: Chosen by the previous Seiyðr although he/she can be appointed by the Hersir if the previous Seiyðr dies [OOC: inactive], Must have visited all pilgrimage sites and help write and further ravungic)

Huskarl
The senior warriors of the Order that have shown great skill in combat but also knowledge of the history, culture and faith of the Order and Ulfhednir. These warriors have gone througha rite of passaget that promotes a Fylk into a Huskarl. Once a Huskarl is confident and able enough, a Hersir or Stallare can appoint a Fylk to a Huskarl, although a Fylk can always choose a Huskarl if agreed upon by a Hersir or Stallare.

Fylkingjar (shortened - Fylk)
These are fledgling warriors that show great promise in their combat skill and faith but need to refine them. This title is automatically given to any member of the Order, even if they wish to not participate in mercenary affairs.

The highest ranking officer of the Hird are known to have a seat on the Fiuman Council
