The War Band of the Frozen Fist
About Us
- The War Band of the Frozen Fist (WBFF) is a coalition of fighters from all corners of the world. We accept war brothers from any and all walks of life, as long as they abide by the rules of War. While we are still young now, we hope to gain many strong fighters and grow quickly to be a formidable fighting force.
Military
- When joining WBFF for the military aspect, you as a prospective fighter have a choice to make. The Path of the Warrior or the Path of the Ranger. When one retires as a commander they will become an alumni. Alumni ranks are either Viking for men or Valkyrie for women. The Alumni answer to no one save for the Warlord himself and may fight wherever they please on the field, so long as it does not impede military progress.
The Path of the Warrior
- Private - Makes up the bulk of fighting force. Usually in a squad of 2-3 fighters and a sergeant
- Corporal - A little more experienced than a private, but still towards the bottom of the food chain.
- Sergeant - In control of a squad comprised of 2-3 privates and corporals.
- Lieutenant - In control of two Sergeants. Lieutenants give commands from the commander to the sergeants they are in charge of and ensure all missions are accomplished.
- Commander - Establishes all strategies for each and every battle. There will only be one commander at a time.

Government
- There are three branches to the Government of the WBFF, they are as follows.
The Warlord
- In the War band of the Frozen Fist we have one ruler, who is our Warlord and makes the majority of all decisions pertaining to the War band. This ruler holds 40% of voting power in any voting situation. To maintain order and proper function of the unit all members must respect any decision made by the Warlord, whether they personally agree with the decision or not. The Warlord can be called upon to be a final deciding say in ANY matter and The Warlord is obligated to give a reply one way or the other. The Warlord is chosen at the turning of every New Year. There is no limit to consecutive terms a Warlord may serve. An Old Warlord can always run again. Eligible Candidates nominate themselves and come before the War Council to be voted upon. Whomever the War Council gives majority vote to becomes the new Warlord. To be eligible to attempt to become a Warlord one must have been a member of the War band a minimum of 1 full year.
The Hall of Heroes
- The Hall of Heroes is comprised of Veteran fighters in the military portion of the War band. All retired Commanders will receive an invitation, from the Warlord, (which they have the right to decline) to be a member of The Hall of Heroes. The Hall of Heroes acts whenever a War Council is called. They have 30% of all voting power. Members of the Hall of Heroes are required only to obey fair orders from the Warlord. The Hall of Heroes is also the Warlord’s advisors on all things pertaining to Military Strategy within the War Band.
The High Council
- The High Council is made up of all Ambassadors, from the different strands of our war band, and the highest ranking non fighter members. The High Council controls 30 % of voting power. The High Council Acts whenever a War Council is called. To be eligible to be on the High Council one must have either received the title of Ambassador from the Warlord, or attained the Rank of Grand Master in some trade. The High Council also acts as the Warlord’s advisors on all things pertaining to Arts and Sciences within the War Band.
