The Order of the Lion Hearted

[Scow2]

That sounds somewhat... backward. Especially since this is a militia, and militia aren't quite as formal as a proper military. Saddling the need for a Special Profile for someone the guild finds worthy of command seems a bit wierd. Unless the NPC soldiers aren't Lion-hearted.

The NPC Soldiers are Lionhearts. And what I meant was this;

If you're a high rank (one that says they can command other soldiers), you can only command other player characters under your rank unless you have an approved special profile for command of NPCs. This is for outside of the parameters of an event. And the Order is both militia and knight order, with the separation between what might be 'Enlisted' and 'Officer' ranks being 'Militia' and 'Knight' ranks.

My question is why you need to be saddled with a Special Profile to be able to control Lionheart NPCs if you are of sufficient rank. After all, this is militia, not Military.

[Zenethen]

I have specified, and will specify again;

The special profile will only be for higher ranks that wish to command Lionheart NPCs -outside of the parameters of an event where they are temporarily granted this command-. This is to prevent abuse of the Lionheart NPCs that reside around the monastery. If your character is a rank of Knight-Lieutenant or higher, and you wish to be able to command more than just your fellow player characters, and command NPCs outside of an event, then it will require an approved special profile under the term of command of NPC forces.

Again, this is not a required thing for higher ranks. It's just to prevent any possible abuse of the power to command Lionheart NPCs.

Also, if/when/whatever Dalikan is re-approved, the Order will technically be an official cadre of Alliance knights, with militia being the lower ranks and staple forces. If anything, it will become paramilitary, no matter what it's called (militia, army, order, etc).
