Vechter

The guardian focused sect of the Skyborn Order. Members see themselves as defenders of the Seven. Not all members are fighters, but this sect is often considered the most militaristic sect of the Skyborn Order. TRAINING

In order to become a fully initiated member of the sect, Skyborn must go through a rigorous training program that can take up to two cycles to complete. During this period, aspiring members are called trainees. The training program encompasses both individual and group based training in order to prepare Vechter Skyborn for a range of different scenarios they may encounter. The training program is led by two teacher/mentors, known as Uchi. Upon completion, trainees are granted the rank of Inizi and receive a set of gold and red armor with a Vechter broach marking them as Vechter, wherever they go.

RANKS

All ranks from Initsi to Tek serve in similar roles and just denote ability and experience and thus more respect in the sect. They are not time-based "promotions," but earned based on demonstration of skills.

Uchi are the teachers/mentors who guide Vechter foot soldiers on their path and will give them a task when they can or when they have something need completed.

The Stozar is often mysterious to the lower ranks and generally unknown as they do not encounter him or her regularly.

Each rank is given a ceremonial gift to denote their rank within the sect:
