Below is the contents of the Night's Watch Handbook. Everything included in the Handbook must be studied and practiced accordingly.
//RANGERS & STEWARDS\\
Many Enlistees and Recruits have countless questions when signing up for the Night's Watch. Many of which involve the two paramount roles Ranger and Steward.
RANGER - The Ranger has a very important role within the Night's Watch. They're typically known as the "Fighting Force" of the Watch - the mainly labelled warriors of the Watch. Rangers go on regular patrols beyond the Wall, as well as manning the Wall itself. In extreme circumstances, the Rangers (Led by the First Ranger) will form up at the gate as the Watch's first line of defense against any threat. Such threats may include - Wildlings, Wights, or any other life force north of the wall who're not returning Rangers. The selection of Recruit to Ranger/Steward is decided by the Lord Commander and First Ranger.
STEWARD - The Steward has a role just as important as the Ranger - if not more. The Body Heat system at Castle Black allows the Stewards role to be complete. Stewards are typically the group of Watchmen tasked with the support of their Castle and the fellow Watchmen. The system at Castle Black means stewards can deploy fires and provide warmth for their fellow brothers, thus supporting the Watch and fulfilling their role. This also applies for food and drink, Stewards are expected to tend to their Brothers needs. Ranks such as Lord Commander, First Ranger, First Steward and First Builder are able to acquire their own PERSONAL steward by personal selection.
//HORNS AND FORMATIONS\\
FORMATIONS - Wedge Formation: Watchmen will form an arrow behind the Commanding Officer. If there is an extra person, they go in the middle of the formation.
Square: One Watchmen on each side of the Commanding officer, protecting them from danger.
COMMANDS - Draw: Equip your sword/Bow.
Pull: Pull back your arrow.
Hold: Keep your shot held.
Release: Release your arrow, raining fire down on your opponent.
Prepare March: Line up to prepare to follow your commanding officer.
March: Follow your commanding officer.
HORNS - 1 Horn Burst = Returning Ranger.
2 Horn Burst = Wildling threat.
3 Horn Burst = Wight presence.
4 Horn Burst = Royalty.
5 Horn Burst = False Alarm.
Use the horn wisely, abuse of the horn will result in said punishment.
//HIGH RANKS\\
Voting in High Ranks is easy. The Lord Commander and First Ranger will select 1 or 2 candidates EACH to be entered into a High Rank selection. Then, votes will be held to determine which of those candidates will earn said rank. Note that the candidates chosen by the Lord Commander and First Ranger will be worthy of that rank, not anybody random.
Questions about the roles of certain ranks can go straight to me through a PM or through skype.
Finally, yes I know that many people are going to challenge me on the things I've written in this forum (GoT/NW Enthusiasts). Just a notice to say that, I really really don't care for what you have to say. |
