Rázdretori (Raze-dreh-tohr-e)

A quiet hush befalls the battlefield. The queen and king's men have become silent, and begin to retreat. Hailsoshia has suffered a defeat! Finally! But no, there are new men piercing the hill tops. Clad in gleaming armor with strange markings dotting it. They portray no fear, nor hesitation. And forward they charge, ready to slay their lords enemies.

Composition

Manpower

The Rázdretori stay small in number, with less than 100 men to fill these roles within the ranks of Hailsoshia. Generally only 5 or so are sent out at any given time.

Equipment

Rázdretori carry a longsword, for their king; A mighty maul for their queen; and wear plate armor for their loved ones. Their longswords are tinged purple, to give homage to Gailian Alistars famed adamantine longsword. Their mauls are tempered red, to give homage to Hisoka Hidekos godly maul. And their plate armor has white hand prints, each placed there by someone important to an individual Rázdretori.

Structure

Each Rázdretori can be considered its own autonomous unit, but each group of five generally has a unit leader who's undergone extra training. Unit leaders are generally identified by a white strip the goes down both sleeves of their armor. Above these, there's the commander of the Rázdretori, called "The Conflagration", who has significantly higher training that his subordinates, training personally under the king and queen. The Conflagration can usually be identified by his maul, which is tempered a brilliant white. Above The Conflagration is the royal court itself, with the king and queen being the highest point.

Tactics

Rázdretori are an honorable warrior class. They never engage enemies on more than one on one combat unless the enemy is large in size, and even then they have disgression to fight with honor in one on one combat. These warriors fight with a focused fury, giving opponents no respite, charging into battle the moment they know their enemy. Rázdretori fight with a precise, deadly tactic, focusing on joints and vital areas of melee fighter, and attempting to cripple the hands of casters. When in mixed combat against Magic and Melee fighters, the Rázdretori prioritize the magic users, knowing how much of a threat they can be.

Training

Rázdretori are trained akin to that of Atatatorian Death Knights. They have a fatal training that lasts 10 years. It begins at a young age, usually 15 or 16, where they're first brought to "The Trueblade Academy" to hone their fighting skills for years. Few deaths happen in the melee years of their training, with more being lost in the second portion of their training when they're brought to "Arcane Calling Academy", where they learn to channel holy power to fight their enemies. Many young Rázdretori-to-be die learning magic, either being consumed by a spell gone haywire, or being killed in sparring lessons. 
On top of the magic and melee training, the young trainees are constantly taught religious practices under the god Tremisk, and her mother Vicnor. Their religious academics never end, continuing on even after official training has ended.
On the final 2 years of their training, the trainees are brought to the "Rázdretori Death Grounds", where they plunge from the mile high cliff into the ocean far below, and must climb their way to the top constantly. They also must survive attempts at their lives brought on by their teachers. This is to teach them to be ever vigilant, as people will want to take their lives at every turn. Their training is brutal while here, allowing them less that 4 hours of sleep every day that they are there. 
The Rázdretori's final training while at their death grounds is to climb to the Green Palace, and reach either the king or queen without being caught, or more precisely, stopped. If they can lay a hand on either diarchy, a ceremony is held the next day to dub the trainee as a full fledged Rázdretori.
