Introduction

As ambition drives the normal ranks of the Dark Brotherhood, it can prove a valuable tool within the structure of the Grand Master's Royal Guard, as well. Through sheer determination, skill or service to the Iron Throne - a member may advance within the heirarchy of ranks within the Royal Guard. To do so, however, requires the individual to collect Loyalty Points (LP). These points are garnered through participation, mastery or positions within the Royal Guard; the number of LP, to the Iron Throne, also plays a critical part in determining one's current rank within the Guard.

Ranks within the Grand Master's Royal Guard are broken into four echelons, aptly numbered based on one's loyalty: First Echelon, Second Echelon, Third Echelon and Fourth Echelon. Within each echelon, assigned a numerical value, are the ranks of the Grand Master's Royal Guard. As one advances within the Society, progressing upward, special features are unlocked: armor, weapons, robes, and hand-to-hand skill in Echani.

Rank Elevations

Unbridled glory and power awaits those whom advance within the Royal Guard. It is a a commendable feat whenever one attains a new rank in the Invite-Only Society, yet advancement into a new Echelon is often worthy of celebration as the prestige is rarely attained beyond the first cross-over (First Echelon to Second Echelon). For those whom attain enough points, they will be inducted into the Fourth Echelon and forever etched into the roster of the Royal Guard - they are second in power only to the Commander of the Guard and are the most vaunted of warriors within the Brotherhood.
