Welcome, Aran Alandar!

[F Horn of Valere]

I am Lord Horn, one of the Banner Captains of the Cavalry, and I'd like to officially welcome you to the Band of the Red Hand!

 

*passes a Bandy, the best regimental drink in the band*

[Daetirion]

:P not to say im not grateful for my own welcome

 

Welcome Alan, I'm Daetirion (wishs he had a title like the others) the newbie Raw Recruit

 

enjoy your stay

[Corki]

Ok...an email with a load of links has been sent to you both, so check your inbox! Here is some more useful info:

 

If you didn't know anything about us, here is a little bit more, so you know what you are getting yourself into!

 

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

 

The Band of the Red Hand is the Travel and Music ORG of DM. Below are ways how to earn points within the Band. As a Raw Recruit, nothing will stop you from earning points as you make your visits to each Regiment and find your home. Such ways to earn points include:

 

- writing reviews on places to visit/holidays you have been on

- writing reviews on music albums and gigs

- replying to other people's reviews and asking questions

- composing Jak O' the Shadow verses

- getting articles published in our monthly newsletter, The Hornsounder

- monthly roll call in the Band's private boards at DM

- any DM project we may have (currently a Battle Project, and there are a few spaces open, so speak to Horn)

- and much much more I cannot think of right now!

 

Of course, we are not all about working 24/7, as we do let our hair down now and then! We are famous for our bar brawls, which happen frequently! There is one currently going on in The Stumbling Soldier Tavern at DM! We also like jokes, tales, funny pictures - things that will make us laugh!

 

Watch out for Redarms, the Band's police force! They uphold our Laws, and can bring anyone to trial for punishment, or spot fine a person with lines. As a Raw Recruit, you escape this for now with 4 free strikes. Once those are used, or you become a full member of a Regiment, you face the Laws like any other Bander! And the Laws have recently been updated, so take a read!

 

We also have many games - here at DM, which can be found in the stickies, and also at our off board site! Also, take the lessons to learn our ORG Game, based on the luck of dice! You get the selected weapons of your Regiment, and can fight anyone in the Band! It is currently being revised, but the ideas will all be the same!

 

If I have left anything out (which I expect I have!), do not hesitate to ask questions! Someone will be able to answer them for you!

 

One last thing...

 

*hands Aran Alandar a Marshal-General's Special Battle Brew*

[Guest Cadsuane]

Good work Horn!

 

Welcome, Aran, to the Band! We are the best org on DM! Have a flaming shot (the official Archer brew), and go ahead and start posting! :P
