Order of the Mystic Dragons: Difference between revisions

====Headmaster====

This title is granted to the person placed in charge of Blackthorn Academy. This position is granted by the grandmaster, and is one of the highest honours outside of combat. The Headmaster is in charge of assigning teaching and determining the most efficient curriculum.

These specially trained knights excel in infiltration, assassinations, cyber espionage, data collection and supply requisition. To become a member of the Varangian Guard, one must complete the most intense training of their life. Only the best of them make it, and many have died from the trials, but those that succeed are considered true masters. Once they complete their training, they are stripped of their old identity and given a new one from an archive of “retired” agents, which becomes their new identity until death.

 

They operate in cells and sometimes solo, answering directly to The Wraith, a shadowy figure shrouded in mystery. It’s unknown whether this individual is a person or simply a hologram controlled by the Grandmaster, though plenty of theories exist. There are rumours that those who hold this title are immortal, due to the standard of recycling identities which has earned them the moniker “The Shadows of Sihi”. Although their missions usually take place away from Sihi, they can be called upon to investigate crimes committed within the order itself when the need arises.

====Zilant (Spectres)====

Those with this distinction have proven their marksmen skills and become experts in their field. Though technically a subdivision of The Varangian Guard, they operate within lances(fangs) to provide long-range tactical support.
