The Fyrd of Devonshire is a competitive clan for the Mount & Blade: Warband modification 'Vikingr' and was created on the 29th of November 2011. It is a Branch of the multi-gaming clan Guard of Istiniar. The Branch is led by three Ealdormen, who are assisted by four Thegns (or less if not all positions were filled via election). We value maturity and behaviour over skill and therefore recruit and manage our members and servers accordingly. We believe that skills for any games can be trained, but that maturity and good behaviour cannot - at least not with the resources at our disposal. For that reason we have a quite extensive set of rules and a one-month trial in which we assess potential new members. After that one month, one of our committees discusses each individual Recruit and votes to determine if the majority is in favour of accepting that Recruit as a permanent member or not. Members of these committees are either elected or veteran players that have been in the clan for a long time and have proven to be dependable members. In the case of the Fyrd of Devonshire the Council of Landholders makes these decisions. The Landholders are veteran members of the Branch, who become members of the Council by progressing through the ranks and reaching the rank Housecarl (or a higher one). A second committee, the Wetangemot, in which the nobility (three Ealdormen and four Thegns) sits, makes decisions regarding rules and Branch structure. The nobility is also responsible for organizing trainings and matches. Our Core Values and rules affecting the entire multi-gaming clan are written down in our Constitution. Specific rules for this Branch can be found in the Charter for this Branch. If you are interested in joining us, it is required that you read and agree to both of them.
