Golden Dragon Mercenaries

Summary

Golden Dragons will primarily guard banking institutions, and escort high value transports. They may be involved in tax collection (or the guarding of tax collectors), repossession, and other (potentially unrelated) ventures such as bounty hunting, and monster slaying.

Golden Dragons, in a professional capacity, will wear brass armor rather than steel giving the appearance of golden armor - brass is effectively as good as steel for armor, albeit heavier; though, it is unsuitable for weapons. Their distinct armor along with their duties primarily revolving around the protection of gold earns them their namesake.

The Order of the Golden Dragon is a decentralized mercenary group not loyal to any Kingdom. The Order of the Golden Dragon as an organization will not engage in warfare, though individual members may fight for their respective liege lords in an unofficial capacity not representing the Golden Dragons.

We are not chilvalrous knights. We will do whatever it takes to complete our missions. Our enemies will be shown no mercy. Morality, ethics, honor, and even one's own reputation is cast side. The only thing that is important is that victory is achieved, at any cost. Failure is not an option.

More Details

Given the contracts the Golden Dragons enlist in, these jobs must be performed by online players. You may face beasts, menn, bandits, highwaymen, or even professional heists. Failure is not acceptable.

In addition to mercenary warriors, the Golden Dragons are looking to employ a robust network of spies, and highly skilled scouts. A spy network may be contracted out if such matters cannot be handled in-house.

An internal ranking system within the Golden Dragons will exist based on a variety of factors such as player skill, level, gear, seniority, and performance. Higher value jobs will be assigned to higher ranking mercenaries within the organization to ensure the successful completion of all services.

Requirements

Players with PvP experience are preferred. As for me, the leader of this merry band, you might say I'm a bit hardcore. I was a Hero Soultaker on Lineage II. In Guild Wars 2 I was in more top 10 guilds than you can shake a stick at: K A R M A [ZEN] (Top 20), Negative Zero [nO] (Top 5), Marvel Superheroes [MS] (top 10), Yin And Yang [YAY] (top 10), The Voice Of Reason (top 10), Ectos And Shards [EnS] (top 5), Rubies N Saphires [RnS] (top 10). HA ranks? r11, r10, r9, r9, r9, r9. I've played and done PvP on a lot of other games, but those are the only two that I did so at a high level competitively.

The Golden Dragons are not just a group of a bunch of fools playing soldier. You'll either get good or get out. We are an elite group, the best of the best. Bad players will not be tolerated. Anyone that we come up against must be crushed into the dirt mercilessly and without even a remote chance of victory. Their defeat will have been determined the moment that they decided to attack us.

Communication is key. A working microphone will be required as well as the ability to effectively communicate during stressful situations. Players will need to be able to function as part of a team in both their communication and their actions.

Roles

There are certain roles within the Golden Dragons that need filled, roles that will exist within every group of Golden Dragons:

• Strat callers: This role is for strategical geniuses. Players that are natural leaders, able to think quickly and calmly under pressure, quickly assess the situation, issue orders, take logical action, and quickly adapt to changing circumstances. You may also be required to call spikes - a timed attack that is counted down in which most or all of the group will attack a single target in unison overwhelming their defenses too quickly for them or their healers to react, killing them instantly. Good strat callers are rare. Your entire group will be counting on your expertise. Do not apply for this if you are not capable.

• Field Medics: Soldiers that are capable of fighting with the best of us, but also skilled healers capable of treating our wounded.

• Soldiers: Other than being good at killing other players, and monsters if necessary, there's probably not all that much special about you. But you are still needed. Ability to communicate and follow orders is intrinsically required.

• Scouts: Your primary job will be scouting ahead of our escorts, spotting potential threats and eliminating them if you can. If you cannot, you are to lay traps and assist the primary group with their defeat. It goes without saying that communication is particularly vital in this role. You will need to assess threats and relay that information to your group's strat caller. You will likely be required to be a skilled solo fighter, capable of taking on one or more enemy combatants on your own. Ranged weapons, stealth, and traps are likely ideal.

• Spies: Your job begins long before the rest of the group. You will be tasked with spreading false information, acquiring information (by any means necessary), identifying threats, and other forms of espionage as required. You will need to be comfortable with infiltrating various groups if necessary for your duties. You may also be required to assassinate certain individuals, if necessary; though, this will be avoided if possible. Your primary purpose is ensuring the safety of our mercenaries and whatever is under their protection. You may be given a handler and have no other contact with anyone else involved with the Golden Dragons. This may change if extrication is necessary. You may also be required to work with other spies, or groups of spies, at times, as required.

• Handlers: While I manage the Golden Dragons as a whole, your job will be the regional management of Golden Dragon activities, either at the County level or at the Duchy level. You will also be responsible for covertly interacting with our spy division to retrieve intel and issue orders. Strong organizational skills required. Players with more free time to be in-game are preferred.
