Originally conceived as the main work and fighting force, their roles would be the most interactive with the native peoples of the land. Unfortunately, as relations soured in several regions, it was the Lesser Gryphons who would bear the brunt of the abuse hurled at the hierarchy. After an incident where... the Elders would order all gryphons to be armed, armoured and don cloaks or helmets to protect themselves and their identities when outside the safety of the hermitage." ~ Lesser Gryphons, Annex D - Hierarchy Structures"..The need for a centralised military force wasn't great among the Borean and Hyperborean tribes; however, the presence of the Solduroi (left) is welcome and symbolic. Unlike their other gryph neighbours, this unit was respected and often revered for its dedication to maintaining the people's ancient traditions and diplomacy between the tribes. This high regard stems from their reputations as formidable soldiers. From the moment they can raise a sword and carry a shield, they are trained to proficiency in the art of asymmetrical warfare, focused on hit-and-run tactics and ambushes. In battle, they are only bested by their commanders, lethal in one-on-one combat and feared for their brutality... Much of their role entails security and peacekeeping, maintaining a watchful eye over their inhabitants who have a habit of partaking in blood feuds and migratory warfare against one another..." ~ Borean and Hyperborean Solduroi, Annex D-2 - Borean and Hyperborean Hierarchy Structure.[/center]
"Founded after... The Hellene Hierarchy was left severely depleted and weakened. Coupled with their retreat into their mountain hermitages, the Elders would desperately raise the Anemo Lokhoi (right), with the intention to supplement the lacklustre numbers of fully trained and competent soldiers. The need for more professional and dedicated soldiers forced the Hellene Hierarchy to enlist volunteers to serve under the illustrious Anemoi. Recruits would undergo a strict selection and training regime, weeding out the weak and offering opportunities of progression to those who passed the initial phase. Despite their extensive training, they lack combat experience, often leaving recruits to be relegated to menial duties of guard temples, exercises, patrols and escorting..." ~ Anemo Lokhoi, Annex D-3 - Hellene Hierarchy Structure.[/center]
