Order, Ambition, Humility and Innovation. These are the four aspects that The Vth Legion of The Garlean Empire stands for. Do you strive for a TRUE military might in your day-to-day interaction within Eorzea? Do you love elaborate, unique, and intense articles of lore about the community YOU choose to be a part of? 

We're looking for new, old, and entirely able men to be a part of our ranks! But be warned - inclusion in the Vth Legion is not an easy feat, as with any specialty group in Garlemald. Your endurance will be tested in boot camp, but should you serve us well, you'll be given power and ranking beyond your wildest imagination.

We are a Rank 5 (And Growing) Legion, dedicated to espionage, special operations, R&D, and over-the-top action. We have a base of operations in three separate locations, The Castrums! You may test the waters by joining our Linkshell, and together, we can create an entirely new persona with you. When you feel ready, you will be inducted into our Legion.

Before we continue, leave some information about yourself below. (In-Game name, and a little about yourself.) After all, we'll be needing to stay in touch. Do you think you have what it takes?

In-Depth Information...

PLANS FOR THE VTH LEGION

Characters can RANK UP in THE FC naturally by participating in various PLOT RPs, as well as participating in intense training regimes while these PLOT RPs are not going on. 

TRAINING REGIMES

High Ranking Soldiers will be entrusted with the care of Legionaries, forming a squad of 8. (Party Function) There will be THREE of these High Ranking Soldiers, whom will form a brief contract to function as a Triumvirate. (ALLIANCES) 

These are events every weekend where the leaders of The FC start up parties with seven other FC members. Then, we FATE GRIND players to LEVEL 60! Or, go as far as we can.

--- For players that are ALREADY LEVEL 60, we will host small events for New Recruits and Legionaries to train with High Ranking Officers. To be promoted to your next rank, you must put in at least a MONTHS TIME into your current Ranking. This is a realistic time frame to allow character growth, especially with In Game Times.

High Ranking Officers MUST be present within the trainee's regime, so that their day can be counted. Specifically, a soldier must be actively training and counted for 30 DAYS before being considered for promotion. All information will be relayed to Lord Balventius, whom keeps a watchful eye on all.

IDEAS FOR TRAINING

Utilize The IC LS for Fate Grinding Day as to have a sort of RPG element, we will set up macros for big Fate Events to help organize our movements like a proper Legion. 

EXAMPLES

"CONFOUND IT! --- Operatives, take out those filthy Scavengers and let the TRUE men handle that gargantuan beast!"

FAILURE

A heavy sigh can be heard from The Linkpearl... "This mission was a complete and utter failure. Lord Balventius is most displeased. -- But you shan't give up yet! Operatives, continue your mission and destroy the swine that infest our lands!"

BREAK

"Rejoice! For /you/ have been given another chance to serve Lord Balventius. At ease, men!"

RAISING A DOWNED SOLDIER

"I haven't given you leave to lay down and die! --- At your feet, you coward!"

NEW RECRUITS

People who first join The FC will be assigned the rank Recruit! --- There needs to be a minimum of FIVE recruits before they can get started. 

When they do, ADAM will be their drill sergeant. He will inform them of everything they need to know, and will tell them how they can rank up and better serve their Lord and their Empire.

When Recruits graduate from Boot Camp, they will be assigned the roll Legionary. They now will be able to participate in TRUE FC EVENTS.

To graduate from Recruit, you must put in at least 7 days time of Boot Camp. (It doesn't have to be one after the other, and when the training is done the training is done.)


-----------------

HOW SPECIAL UNITS WILL WORK

I (with the help of The Triumvirate and the players themselves) will have certain days where we review a troop's progress. This is to fill in the spot of Special Units. We will then discuss the squadrons with you, and you can pick a place for your character afterwards. These days will be open from 8AM EST to 8PM EST. Those interested will be able to create their characters with my help, allowing a bond to be formed between Leader and Member.

Right now, Desperado is completely filled up. However, ADAM is leader of The Wisemen. --- There are a maximum of 10 Cohorts. 

They are as follows:

Desperado - 1st Cohort
A select group of elite soldiers, entirely loyal to The Legatus: Decima. This group consists of The Mad Dog of Garlemald, Spurius Iuvenlis, Avidia Iuvenlis, and Aetius. All have RAMPAGE Augmentations.

The Rampage Unit - 2nd Cohort
A unit consisting of twenty-one bodies. Ten men, Ten women, One Controller. However, this unit is a project created by The Wisemen and its head, ADAM. They act as a hive-mind, controlled by [REDACTED]. This unit is highly experimental. Twenty Bodies act as dangerous Biological Weapons.

The Wisemen - 3rd Cohort
An enigmatic group of scientists who favor the time High Noon. -- Yes, they all rather like the wrangler and outlaw look. Each sports a revolver supplied by the big man himself, their commander. ADAM. They come with special uses!

Doppelganger - 4th Cohort
An espionage group who utilize high-tech Magitek masks developed by The Wisemen. These masks, while highly experimental and flawed, allow the user to take on another's visage. It's advised for the members of this group not to get too close to someone, as they'll be able to identify your fraudulence with ease.


The Viper Unit - 5th Cohort
A group of wackos, to say the least.

Ashskin - 6th Cohort
[REDACTED]

BEAKON - 7th Cohort
These are the messengers of The Vth Legion. Fabius pyr Balventius controls this group, and they're all known as Little Birdies. They utilize and supply intelligence, and lay out tactical maneuvers for the different squadrons. Even those who aren't exactly 'special'.

TROJON - 8th Cohort
A group who specialize in covert operations. These are the guys whom enter a building dressed as a normal citizen. Think of them as your James Bond.

Beauty Squadron - 9th Cohort
This is a group entirely made of women. However, they could probably slit your throat before you've ever laid eyes on them. They stick to the shadows, mostly. Not much else is known about them.

IMPERIAL - 10th Cohort
Really. Good. Soldiers.

--------------

HOW HOUSING WILL WORK


We will not have our men be pampered with fluffy pillows and luxurious views. We're soldiers of WAR, and it's time you started to act like one. For those who are far too weak to survive some of the harsher elements that reside within The Castrums. (UNDER LEVEL 60) ---  We will designate a special area for you. This will be a main hub within Eorzea, for our Operatives to work in. Here, ADAM will train NEW RECRUITS and prepare them for an honorable life. 

For those who have graduated from this Military Academy, your homes will be The Castrums, as they are the safest place for a proper soldier.

How to sign up!

TALES FROM THE VTH LEGION!

---------------------------------------------


((WARNING, IMPLIED GRAPHIC SCENES.))


A man shrouded in black stood before a medical table, and on top of that table was a fleshy mound of red and muscle. It writhed, and groaned, and reached out towards him as if The Man could offer any form of salvation. However, the room was covered in shadow. The faint glimmer of candlelight shined bright in the farthest corner, allowing illumination to show off the sheets which lined the small room. They were covered in blood. --- Just below, almost out of reach of that candles' light, could be seen a pile of discarded flesh.

There was far too much. So much so, that that pile of discarded flesh was very clearly from one entire person.

"Aaghh..." The patient groaned, trying to grasp at the shadowed man's collar. He simply slapped that bloody appendage away without a care in the world, and he leaned forward. This caused the bottom half of his face to shine in view. One so normal would be repulsed to see such a grisly sight, a view of charred skin with a translucent glimmer of red just beneath. They highlighted his veins, which pulsated in tune with his heart. He had no lips, but that didn't mean he couldn't smile! On the contrary, he had a Glasgow grin from ear to ear!

However, those scars appeared to be fresh. When the skin where his lips should be parted, the cuts would stretch open like a snake's unhinged jaw. Between that point, could be seen a strange red liquid which oozed from top to bottom in a sort of thick wall. It stretched out like gum between a leather boot and pavement.

"So... Are you alive now?" The shadowed man began. To the patient, his voice sounded like heaven. It was smooth, like a fresh stick of butter. Yet it oozed power and malevolent intent. "Aagghhghh..." The Patient groaned out, staring up at the man with wide, lid-less eyes.

"What do you see?" The man continued, his voice fell to a hushed whisper. And as he spoke, he placed the palm of his gloved hand against the mound's quivering shoulder. The patient sputters before spewing out a fountain of blood and goo. "Hmm?" The man persisted. "You have eyes!" He pressed again, and made sure to lean forward again. As he did this, his head would cant to the side ever so slightly. His body folded in on itself, causing the black leather material to grind together. His western hat, however, hid the rest of his face in a smog of shadow. "What do your EYES sssee?"

The patient sputtered once more, yet never responded. He fell limp and glanced away from the shadowed man, however he still drew breath. "Hmm Hmm Hmm..." The man chuckled, "Yeeeess... That's right! You see a sssseee meeeeee..."

A low hiss rumbled beneath the operating table, and up the side of that metal thing's leg slithered an incredibly large snake. Its scales were the color of night. ADAM chuckled low, then let his fingertips glide against EVE's spine as she began to calmly coil around the bloody mound before them...

"Ssssleeeeeeeep............... . . . . . . . . . . ."
