Artist's depiction of the Padisah's Janissaries being drilled and trained in Guneysehir
Introduction and Background
Named after the Guneyliler Padisah's elite infantry unit and personal guard, the Janissary Company was founded by Ibrahim Batunoglu in 305 A.C., intended as both a company of sellswords and armed defenders of the Ibadet faith outside of Sendras. Having moved operations to Regalia in 307 A.C., the company has opened its personal mercenary ranks to more than just Ibadet Guneyliler as a way to expand their numbers in the Holy City. This move has ended up causing some controversy among both the original members and other outsiders, as the decision to recruit non-Ibadet may diminish the original religious intent of the company while also ruffling feathers of devout Unionists. The Janissaries work to protect the city population while respecting Regalian Law, though the company holds a complicated relationship with the Holy City due to originating as a primarily non-Unionist mercenary group. While the Janissaries have yet to fully test their mettle in Regalia, the company's members have full intent to prove that not only can they perform on par with the rest of the mercenaries, but showcase their dedication to fighting whatever enemies may face them on the field or lurk in the corners of Aloria.

Rules & Recruitment
- Remain respectful of other players as well as their right to RP, regardless of IC disputes or conflicts.
- OOC toxicity and poor conduct will not be tolerated. We also ask that you have a relatively clean reputation before applying.
- Do your best to make Janissary roleplay engaging and fun for everybody involved, and do your best to represent the Janissaries both IC and OOC.
- While a character application isn't mandatory upon recruitment, having one greatly improves your chances of being accepted and allows player members to participate in progressions that the Janissaries may be involved with.
- Note: Those with certain positions such as (though not limited to) fellow Commanders, Officers and Medics require apps for Progressions. Members wanting to help with Progressions also require apps.
- Though the Janissaries are somewhat influenced by Guneyliler culture, members are not required to either be Guneyliler or to convert to Ibadet. Anybody willing to more or less respect Regalian Law and maintain some standard of discipline is allowed to join.
