Originating from the unforgiving coasts of Brissiaud, those of the Bulwark are seasoned warriors who have devoted themselves to the noble House Rosendahl. The order was formed in the grand duchy of Petange under the watchful eye of Germain Rosendahl, and has since migrated to the Regalian capital alongside their liege lord. Members of the Crimson Bulwark serve various functions, the most prominent being the protection of Rosendahl members and their assets. Those of the Bulwark are also employed to serve as champions to the house and may be called upon to deliver swift justice to those who act against their sworn lord.

Rankings and Organization
- Liege Lord - The patriarch of the Rosendahls, who carries ultimate authority over the organization. Although duties are most often delegated to the kommandant or officers, the patriarch must be respected and obeyed at all times.
- His Grace Jamie Rosendahl
- Kommandant - The right hand on the Rosendahl head who oversees assignments, commands the troops, and manages the guard. Although the patriarch is the supreme authority of the order, the Kommandant may issue demotions/promotions and perform all of the same tasks that His Grace can.
- Kommandant Lucien Rosendahl
- Kommunder - Bulwarks who reach the rank of kommunder perform the same duties as officers and hold the same jurisdiction. However, in the complete absence of the Liege Lord and the Kommandant (meaning that both are entirely inaccessible), they carry executive authority.
- Vacant
- Officer - Directly underneath the kommandant, these loyal guardsmen have proved their merit as both warriors and as leaders. Scrutinized heavily, those who hold the rank of officer are generally tasked with larger operations and are often called upon by the family.
- Vacant
- Sergeant - A step up from the standard rank of retainer, those who hold this position carry added authority and are most always the ones to lead group trainings. Although sergeants do hold slightly more jurisdiction over regular guardsmen, their duties largely remain the same.
- Arabella Ashdown
- Julius Cormac
- Retainer - Conventional combatants who make up the majority of the Bulwark. Their duties revolve around escorting Rosendahl family members, assisting officers in major assignments, participating in group trainings, and keeping the peace at Rosendahl-led events.
- Michael Brett
- Anna Caladwen
- Mortibus Umbra
- Ulric Theraben
- Dederick Nordahl
- Nikita Pyotovich
- Mac Syllbess'aos
- Recruit - Otherwise known as trainees, this rank serves as a trial for aspiring members. They defer to all of the above. Those who wish to make a name for themselves in the organization strive to attend all major meetings and trainings, and are encouraged to speak with those higher-up to prove their worth.
- Meadow Hayes
- Red Borgham
- Hratchett Jormungandr
- Lionel Celyreos
- Nenet Kra'zzla
- Nat'zu Aldane
- Ciaran Aithne
- Roxas Reaga
- Jake Morgen
Specialized Ranks
- House Champion - The holder of this position is called upon to represent the family during competitions and melees, and is often regarded as one of the highest combatants. Anyone can challenge the champion at any time to overtake the role, and a manor in the Rosendahl lands is provided for the champion.
- Julius Cormac
- Crimson Knight - Elite guardsmen who receive a room in all major Rosendahl keeps and have their names written in the history books. Holders of this title have given their life entirely to House Rosendahl and have done exceptional deeds during their service.
- Vacant
A call to arms administered by a previous Rosendahl ruler.

- Accompanying Rosendahl members across the capital and during gatherings.
- Training both recruits and the younger Rosendahl family members.
