[SIZE=11pt]Welcome to the Order of Ren, Sieger's most trusted servants. Once explicitly an order of Force sensitive beings, now reforged into something far more deadly. For many years the Supreme Leader has preached reward by merit - something he had yet to implement among his own disciples. No longer.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]What does it mean to be a Knight of Ren?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]It means to pledge your service, your honor, your very soul to Sieger Ren. not only this, but the ideals put forth by the Supreme Leader, an ever present objective to bring peace to the galaxy at large. Through force if necessary. And force is often necessary. To be a Knight of Ren is to be a warrior, a shadow, an all observant eye. Your loyalty is first to Sieger, second to the ideal of order, thirdly loyalty unto the First Order.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Does this mean I'm a faceless, mindless droid in service of Sieger?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]No. Just because you hold loyalty to Sieger does not mean that you are mindless, but it does mean you truly believe in his desires. Whether you believe he is a diety or perhaps just a man capable of enacting galactic order, your loyalty must remain true. If your loyalties are found lacking, expect harsh retribution.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]What is the Structure of the Order of Ren?[/SIZE]

[SIZE=36pt]Sieger Ren[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]At the very pinnacle of the structure of command sits Sieger Ren, the Supreme Leader of the First Order - none are his equal. This position of power in unobtainable by PC's as Sieger is an NPC run by the Faction's Staff. He commands both the Praetorian Guard and the Knights of Ren, the two primary paths one may take while in service of the Order of Ren.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]As stated, the Order of Ren consists of both the Knights of Ren and the Praetorian Guard. The former is where the majority of both Force and Non-Force wielding recruits and Knights are trained and adopted, their skills varying in both skill and ability. These are the warriors and the agents of Sieger's will. Likewise, the Praetorian Guard consist of Masters, Knights, and Disciples, but with a distinctly more specific set of skills. Trained from recruitment to act as Sieger's most elite bodyguards and protectors, these men and women are trained in many combat arts and with a wide variety of weapons. Willing to dedicate their lives to the protection of the Supreme Leader, they are yet brothers and sisters to the Knights of Ren, but hold a special title in honor of their duty. Only the most loyal and proven may serve among Sieger's Praetorian Guard.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=11pt]Description here[/SIZE]
[SIZE=36pt]The Praetorian Guard[/SIZE]
The Praetorian Guard are Sieger’s personal guard, their skills and abilities near as advanced as Sieger’s himself. Trained since recruitment in the ways of combat and weapons handling, these elite guard are the most loyal among the Order of Ren, trained by Sieger himself. Of these guards, there has been an awakening. A true adherence to Sieger’s belief that beings should be rewarded by merit. As such, even non Force sensitives reside among the ranks of the Ren. Despite their lack of connection to the Force, they are just as deadly if not moreso.
The Praetorian Guard consist of 8 “Praetorians”. Men and women who personally protect Lord Sieger. These eight are masters of combat, and those that wield the Force are Masters in their own right. While they operate independently of the Knights of Ren, they are beholden to the decisions of the Council and Sieger alone. No Praetorian may sit on the council of the Ren.
Beneath these 8 Praetorians are 8 Praetorian Knights, Knights of Ren who have been trained since they were Disciples in the methods of combat and protection. As it stands, these 8 Knights are direct Apprentices of the Praetorians above them. Just as the Praetorians, the Praetorian Knights consist of an equal number of Force Sensitive Praetorians and non Force Sensitive Praetorians.
These Knights carry similar responsibility to that of typical Knights of Ren however they hold a more pronounced responsibility to the internal affairs of both the Ren and the First Order. These Praetorian Knights are responsible for providing increased security not only for Sieger, but for those members of the highest echelon of the First Order, Sieger’s will providing.
A pool of no more than 16 disciples at any given time are brought on as Disciples by these Praetorian Knights. Disciples of not only Sieger but the techniques and skills required to protect, these members of the order are selected both from the Academy on Skye as well as from the general cadre of Disciples.
