Warblade

As the blade of war, you will be the heart and brain of our forces. The blades will depend on you, as well as we. Most will say the Warblade is an actionless job, one of riches and laziness. Though you will soon come to see, the riches bring responsibility... responsibility where lives are at stake, and for every death, good or bad, you are responsible.

— Blade Council speech

Qualifications

To become the Warblade, you not only have to be an expert in your own mercenary field of expertise, but have extensive knowledge on the industry as a whole. Additionally, fighting or strategic prowess is a prerequisite to gain the trust and support of the Blade Council.

Requirements

Officiallly, everyone can become the Warblade as long as they are qualified enough, no matter of age, gender or social status. Behind closed doors and inside the Golden Blade, this is often forgotten however.

Duties

The Warblade oversees every single running and upcoming war-operation within the Golden Blade. So every assassins job, every raid, every battlelends and every search and destroy party is managed by them. Additionally, the contractors bring new requests to the Warblade and in a closed meeting discuss which of them to accept or deny. In very rare occasions, the Warblade takes part in an operation as well, though this only happens in very high-class exceptions. One of the biggeest Warblade operations that were ever conducted was the Thorgean Liberation, in which the Warblade played an integral part in assassinating the then royal Dryskhell Family.

In short, every single job well done, every death, every kill, every leak and every failed mission is the responsibility of the Warblade.

Benefits

The Warblade receives a commission of every successful operation they oversee. Additionally, they gain the full backing of the Golden Blade mercenary guild, which, while the identity of the Warblade is kept a total mystery, gives them entry into some of the most high class underground black market locations.
