✊ The Regalian Brotherhood ✊

[BillyTheScruffy]

Spoiler: ♫ Ambience ♫

With the onset of female only clubs, Duke Rodderick Howlester has saw it fit to establish The Regalian Brotherhood, a club exclusively surrounding male interests for men, by men. The Brotherhood itself is open to any and all men of all class and humanum race, and actively promote activities such as ale drinking, sigg smoking, debate, arm wrestling, Gallovian body wrestling, tattoo art exhibitions, card games, armed fighting, ship sailing, fishing and military discussion. While this club is centred around men and male culture, women are permitted to join subject to wearing traditional maid attire, not for the purpose of serving the men themselves, but rather as a testament against the current political agenda of women in Regalia and their exclusivity against men and male orientated culture. The Brotherhood is quite similar to Gallovian Dearths, which emphasizes fraternity and brotherhood amongst men and their contributions to the Empire.

​

Chairman

The second in command. Limited to five members who have almost equal power to the chairman, but not overarching his authority.

Rodderick,

Last fraternity we went wolf-pelt hunting. I'm more of a man than you are. Let me in.

Vulmar.

 

[Walrusaur_]

Lord Howlester,

In light of the recent movements of more liberal women, I find your brotherhood to be a breath of much needed fresh air in the wake of feminists like d'Ortonnaise, Moselberg and the other women of (commonly) Ithanian backgrounds. I think my having worn a bear's skinned face as a mask at the masquerade this past evening is proof enough that I am a so-called "manly man." Regardless, this is most assuredly something my kin and I will support, consider me interested.

To Rodderick Howlester,

Evening, my friend. I reckon I'd join this, what seems to be a frat. Seems it's been a while since I've been in one, last being the Ravenstad-led fraternity. I'm sure I fit all criteria to joining this social order.​

Warm wishes,
Nobleman of Gästrelänvatnan,
Valbrand Haagenvig​

 

[AlphaInsomnia]

To Rodderick Howlester,

Women, right? It may strike you as odd, but I do not fancy formal balls and pageants, or sewing until I grow old like some Ithanian woman. Let it be shown that women of the north can stomach anything some soft-handed men could, and more. I'd be happy to prove it.

With high regards,
~Kaya Sorenvik
Female, 24

 

[BeashSlap]

Rodderick Howlester,

Consider me interested. So- Why not be simple. I'm of Velheim culture. I'm a General. I'm an Imperial Bellator. I'm a Captain of the Vigilant Shield. And, most importantly, I'm a man. I think I fit this.

Signed,
Garth Viduggla,
General of the Owl's Talon.​

One cannot be a man and a woman at the same time. Its one or the other, so ditch the corset for some fist bracers and then we'll talk.

P.S. I want to get a tattoo.

Rodderick Howlester,

Man, you know I'm down to drink-sigg-arm wrestle pure masculinity, my esteemed dude.

Theodore Artiemus.​

 

[SorryNari]

Lord Howlester,

I'm an Url, and I fight bears in the countryside with my BEAR (bare) hands. If that's not manly enough, then I don't know what is.

- Wulfgar​

 

[Greys_n]

For Rodderick Howlester,

A manly man is my best friend, as far as I've experienced. Being Valbrand Haagenvig's cousin, I assume you'll be able to find an opening.

I hunt, play the Anglian Shuffle and stray far from women. I'd rather this take my time.​

Please,
Karsten Haagenvig.​

To the esteemed Duke Rodderick Howlester,
I'd assume I'd need to make this simple. I'm a Hightower Cadet, an Imperial Bellator, ex-Regalian Sentinel and despite what the other Hightowers (and Valbrand) may say, a man.

For your consideration,

P.S., I can't write in Common. My roommate wrote the transcription.

 

[jarebear24]

Lord Howlester,

Even as I near thirty, I can knock back a shot of whiskey quicker than you can blink. Do let this proud Leutzman be your brother.

Regards,
Roland K. Everhardt

 

[Wumpatron]

Duke Howlester,

I suppose the manliest thing I can do is fire a crossbow, but I suppose it is the words that make the man. Twenty-eight years gives me quite a bit of words then, looking forward to further discussion.

In good faith,
Lord Giovanni dei Termini

 

[Battlebrawn]

To the esteemed Rodderick Howlester,

Finally, an organisation worthy of my attention. I classify myself as a man of the sea, which comes with the full package of sailing, swimming, drinking, sparring and gambling. I've also publically beheaded a death mage, but that was like a one time deal, y'know?

Erwald Ravenstad (35)
Admiral of the Crown Armada ​

 

[Canaanite]

Lord Howlester,
We're both men. I can probably take on the better half of your brotherhood in the ring. We'd like to join.

May the masculine eye of the Imperial Spirit watch over you,
Claude and Edmond du Pont​

Let's drink, smoke, and tear shit up.

- Sloan Perrot​

 

[Svyatogorye]

Lord Howlester,

I am a man. You are a man. I can cut down any heretic with my halberd. But that is not where my manliness truly resides. I am so manly, mere clay folds before the might of my fingers and shapes to my will in a perfect masculine dance of fear and mastery.

May you be warmed by the light reflected off the Imperial Spirit's chiseled abdomen,
Albus du Pont​

Your Father and I share a fond memory of me being mauled by a bear, along with many a nights ended at the bottom of a Beer mug, shall we continue those memories?

Kind regards,

[TalkChat]

A finely printed letter sat an the doorfront of the Howlester estate, stamped with the dei Termini sigil

Dear Duke Howlester,

I, Fredo dei Termini, am a man who enjoys drinking, and conversation more than the typical man, but in terms machoness, I bet fifty regals I can wrestle my cousin Giovanni to the ground with one hand tied behind my back. Like my cousin, Giovanni dei Termini, I would like to apply to this 'fraternity' of sorts. Consider this my application. Spirit guide you.

With Highest Regards, Fredo Gianperio dei Termini​

Noting the letter that was on his daughter's desk as he check on her room while she was most likely on some walk in the noble park, he'd let out a gruff cough.

An attachment to the letter is pinned over the actual letter itself:

To Rodderick,

My daughter is to be either denied from joining the order, or to be excluded from looking like a fool. I will not be seeing her in any maid uniform, or any outfit reminiscence of a simple servant.​
