The Legion

RP-PVP centered

The focus of the Calderon Legion is to fight and win the House's wars. We will hone our RP skills and develop our characters, but due to Ashes's game mechanics, no one in House Calderon can ever hide behind dice or emotes. If you pick up a sword, you must prove you're a skilled warrior. It is because of this ethos the members of our military must be PvP capable, allowing us to participate in Guild Wars, Node Wars, and Castle Wars. We will organize ourselves with full intentions of RPing before, after, and, if given a chance, between battles. Duels will be real! We will not shy from a fight!

march into battle

"If you want peace, prepare for war."

Verra will be an untamed land. Rivals will inevitably show themselves, and the realm must have those willing to sacrifice for the greater good. If you want to find the front you must only look for the Drake Banner. House Calderon will be at the forefront of Node and Guild Wars to ensure the stability and peace of the Realm.

serve the Obsidian Order

The Gilded House's main combat arm is the Obsidian Order, focusing on PVP above all else. As such, House Calderon pays homage to the Obsidian Order above all the branches of the Gilded House. Serving the Obsidian Order is both an honor and mandatory for all the Legion, as the Drake will submit to the Grey Wolf in matters of both offensive and defensive war. 

Soldier/Guard RP

The Legionaries are the core of the Legion. All members begin as simple Legionaries and hone their skills for House Calderon. RP will consist of training both the mind and body for combat. Your character will perfect their skills with their weapon of choice. Patrolling the lands and holdings of House Calderon, but also working to keep the peace for the Gilded House, and serving at the behest of the Obsidian Order.

Sailing RP-PVP

House Calderon embraces the aspect of an auto flagged Ocean, thus all Sailors regardless of their RP desires must be ready to protect their ship. All ships from the smallest rowboat to the biggest galleon must have a crew willing and ready to fight.

MAKEUP OF THE LEGION


The Calderon Legion is small, 


Contubernium   [4 Players] - [Small Party] A Contubernium is the standard unit. The building block on which the Legion is built around, a single Contubernium can be sent on patrols, make camp, or fight in unison. Due to mechanics, a Contubernium will likely be all the same primary archetype to gain bonuses. Led by a Decanus, they are responsible for ensuring the order of troops, building up the culture of the Contubernium, and enforcing training standards. 


Century  [8 Players] - [Full Party] The Century is the first stage of a permanent command force, made up of at least two Contubernium, led by a Centurion. The Century is the backbone of the Legion. Centuries fortify nodes, lead missions, hit dungeons, and more. A Century will have a mix of Footmen and Archers, a Cavalry detachment for scouting, and support casters.


Cohort [16-24 Players] - [Small Raid] A Cohort is a large formation made of multiple Century. Led by a Prefect, the Cohort is a flagged and will lead large camps and garrisons, going on campaigns and missions even far from the House Calderon lands.  


Legion [40+ Players] - [Full Raid] A Legion is a commanding presence. Legion are assembled during war, crisis, or need. They combine two Centuries under a chosen veteran officer to lead. The Legion aims to fight wars, siege nodes, and take part in Raids. A Legion will develop the means to create and deploy siege equipment and utilize them with a dedicated Siege Section.
