The Platinum Wings

The Platinum Wings are a faction within the world of Lordrune. They serve the god Ahzimot and seek to carry out his will of bringing light to the world, and are highly trained elite warriors. The faction is currently commanded by Daniel Rowe

## Founding

The Platinum Wings are devout followers of the god Ahzimot, being founded by the dragon god shortly after the divine wars. The state of the world of Lordrune left barren, Ahzimot called upon seven gold dragons to be his council and dedicate their lives to rekindling the light of hope in the world. Many mortals saw these actions, and swore themselves to the service of the dragon god, wishing to be his emissaries of light. This devotion caused Ahzimot to reward the mortals that stood by his side, granting them power and creating the first generation of Platinum Wings.

## The Platinum Oath

The Platinum Wings have forged their own oath which is believed to be one source of their power. The tenants of this oath are as follows:

* Kindle light. Show kindness and mercy to the people, and kindle the light of hope within them.
* Preserve light. Protect the light of hope from those that would seek to snuff it out. Where there is good, stand against the darkness of evil. Where there is life, shield it from the darkness that would see it lay barren.
* Praise Light. Delight in song and merriment. If your light dwindles, you cannot preserve it in others.
* Become Light. Be a beacon to those lost in darkness, and guide them back to the path of the light.

## Ranking

The ranking system of the Platinum Wings is based on experience and special skills.

The commander is the highest ranking member of the Platinum Wings, and is chosen based on their abilities both in combat, and heroism. Typically, a very impactful heroic deed will earn this a member this title, but only if there is currently no acting commander.

The Second Wings, similarly to the commander, are chosen based on ability, though there is a third slightly more subjective requirement. The two Second Wings are chosen based on how deep their bond with the acting commander is, typically this ends up being blood relations or childhood friends, though if none is present, battle bonds are taken into account as well.

The Eyes are more exclusive. As with Second Wings, there are only ever two Eyes at a time. They are not chosen by the acting commander, instead, every member of the Platinum Wings is put through a series of rigorous tests, and only those who pass every single test are given the right to become the Eyes.

Fangs and Claws are the most straightforward. When you pass the initiation of the Platinum Wings, you are inducted as a Claw. When you give enough proof of your abilities, a ceremony is held, and Claws are then promoted to Fangs.

## Affiliation

The Platinum Wings are not affiliated with any specific country, though they do work with the leaders of each country when matters of international safety are involved.
