Battle-team Zirael is the newest team to be created within Clan Odan-Urr. It is a team meant mostly for training services, dealing with most new recruits and also having a high amount of contact with non-Clanned citizens.
History
After the razing of New Tython at the hands of Darth Pravus and the Iron Legion, Clan Odan-Urr fled, morale weakened and forces depleted. In an initiative to revive the Clan’s infrastructure and integrity, Corvus Corax took up the reins of Battle-team Zirael, aiming to start bringing spirit back to the Clan.
With a generous gift from the Empress, and some contacts in different areas of society, the team was created with all the facilities and spaces it needed.
Patron Object
The Zirael Crystal is mined from the sides of Kiast’s oceanic trenches. As these crystals are under a toxic atmosphere, tremendous pressure, and sulphuric oceans, it is undeniably very difficult to extract. However, after the incredible effort of extracting the mineral, it is incredibly durable, allowing it to be used in many different ways, and is also regarded as extremely beautiful. After learning about it, it was chosen as the Patron Object for its uncanny likeness to a graduate from this Battle-team.
Headquarters: The Village
In the western arc of Essadan, the Village is a complex of sturdy buildings. Awarded to Odan-Urr as part of their negotiations, Battle-team Zirael has started using the Village as their grounds. They use the central courtyard for sparring and combat practice, sometimes using thrown-together barricades of discarded scaffolding and refuse to simulate a more complicated and team-oriented battle.
There is also several suites suited to mechanical and technological advancement, with a workshop and set of terminals included.
Tactics and Operations
Zirael is the only substantial Clan unit aside from the Summit that is based on Kiast. However, its role is to train its members with specialist skills and worthwhile experience, in a manner of different roles, in order to be able to integrate with the other Clan units upon Graduation.
Intra-Clan relations
Zirael works hard to have good relations with other clan units, in order to ease the integration of Zirael graduates into the wider Clan. This is usually achieved by running joint missions. Zirael would jointly work with Hoth, Satele-Shan, Knights of Allusis, Disciples of Bass, and Strike-Team Ooroo on missions which would acquaint the Swallows to other house lore, members, and environment. It can also build skills that may not have been developed otherwise.
Specialist Roles
Zirael’s aim is to not only open up opportunities for its members, but train them in a specialist field, so they have skills to contribute to whatever team they are in. Zirael does this by sending its members on both individual and team missions to focus on one particular skill. For example, an individual may be sent to learn ship mechanics under the guise of an apprentice, or a team may be sent to a small clinic to learn various healing methods.
For combat skills, it is slightly more difficult to covertly organise specialist training - so combat training is either done by a member of the Clan, or an external weapons specialist. For more experienced members, they may be sent out as a team or individually to partake in a real mission - such as the infiltration of a criminal organisation or as a temporary ward of a noble Vatali house.
Real-Life Role
Our real life role in the House is to train the leaders of tomorrow. Our projects focus on improving House infrastructure. One example is we are given the task of investigating planets, bases, criminal organizations and designing Wiki pages based on our submissions. We will soon be getting into event planning and other administrative work that is the driving force of this Club.
Our real life role in the Clan is to introduce new members to the wider DB and the activities we do, whilst ‘training’ the leaders of tomorrow.
Leadership
Troop Leader: Corvus Corax
Sergeant: TBD
The Troop Leader is responsible for the team as a whole. From an external viewpoint, they manage the team and its activities. In reality, the Troop Leader is one of the first friends you can have. They are the leader which you will have most contact with.
The Sergeant is the second in command. They support the Troop Leader in their duties, and also are close to the team. They work to make sure the activities are things that the team wants and needs. Additionally they work closely with the Corporal on maintaining StO assets.

Policies
Members of Zirael will not call down or criticize other members; they will operate in multiple House and Clan channels; they will seek to befriend and improve others within and outside of the Clan, and to learn from those above them with humility and dedication. Interpersonal problems will be brought to the attention of the Troop Leader and/or the Sergeant who will work with both parties to resolve the issue. If a settlement cannot be made, the issue will be taken to the Proconsul and then to the Consul for a ruling.
