Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
Mandatory Light Reading Before You're Enlisted Here
Beware all who would enter here. This is a holy place, laced with history, honor, duty, and more than a dose of bloodshed. If you wear the uniform, fear not, for we are brothers. We are the keepers of peace and order in this city, and we protect our home as we do the homes of all loyal citizens. All others, tread lightly. This is not a spot for tourists or other layabouts. If you have a reason for visiting here, be about your business and ensure that you check in with the duty officer. Those without a guest pass will be detained for questioning. Terrorism is on the rise and one can never be too careful.
If you wish to join us, be welcome and please visit the recruitment center where an officer will take your paperwork and your blood. Be warned, we are a brotherhood that is pure of body, pure of mind, and pure of blood. If you violate one of those tenants there may be dire consequences. If you pass our tests you may call these halls your home and wear our uniform proudly. Be warned, however, to join us is to forsake your past and embrace your life ahead. We take our pledge seriously, and once you sign on that dotted line, there is no leaving short of desertion or death.

Military Occupational Specialty(MoS) is what will be known as the military's job system. Within a player's profile, they must list their MoS and then their rank.
For example: Kalum Wulfgang Guild Position: MoS--Footman, Rank--Ensign Brief Descriptions of these jobs shall be provided below. Detailed explanations will be provided in the Specific Military Details within Lodan and its provinces
Broad Reference
Footman: A footman is considered to be any soldier who does not specialize in any particular MoS. They are often considered the grunts but also the staple of EIRAL as they make up close to seventy percent of the army's composition. Their duties often include routine patrols throughout the city, deployment on moderate to intermediate threat level missions, and combat infantry in warfare.
SA-Fare: (Name subject to change) SA-Fare are all personnel who specialize in the fields of Sea and Air warfare. These soldiers make up roughly eighteen percent of the remaining soldiers outside of Footman. Their duties often include sea and sky patrols, investigating issues regarding piracy, and responding to high level threats on either sea or air fields.
Engineers: The Engineers are considered to be the backbone of the military despite having little area to initially function before the construction of the Workshop. At first they were nothing more than brains left to rot or die on a battlefield but with the addition of the Workshop, reliance on the Merchants of Mingo's has drastically cut back in favor of harvesting the wealth of information of those within military ranks. Their duties seldom require them to participate in combat, but are still trained to do so in case of emergency. Engineers are responsible for the maintenance of all weaponry within the military and all machinery such as EIRAL's three airships, their naval ships, and most notably, the Railroad. Because of their importance, they will often be included in top secret assignments. To Be Added:
