Scarlet Host

The Scarlet Host was the conglomerate military force of the Valtavien League, one of the strongest militaries to ever exist. Named so after the colour of Estor, the Cenithist god of conquest and battle, the Scarlet Host has two major divisions, its army and its navy. Sometimes known as the Scarlet Tide or the Host of Estor, the Scarlet Host operates in and around the lands of Eclis but have the craft and technology to serve much further afield.

Currently, the Scarlet Host is in a time of relative inactivity, mostly suppressing pirate bands, fledgling organisations and guarding nobles on their travels.

The Scarlet Host, after facing some complications and disagreements as far as minutia and logistics, has become one of the most effective, disciplined and triumphant military forces the planet has ever seen. Initially, the cultural differences and patriotism of each empire caused friction between them and it took some time to share their own technology and adapt to others.

Organization
The Scarlet Host is divided into two major orders with several smaller ones surrounding those to support through either logistical or a peaceful manner.

Scarlet Army
The Scarlet Army is the ground-based fighting force of the Valtavien League. their banners, fine raiments and greatest armour is forged and woven in An-Galon. Their warriors are trained in the ancient arts and practices of Serin. Their mages and mystics are trained and find enlightenment in the vistas of Ortheriad. However, the manpower is build and bred among all five lands.

The Scarlet Army is divided into Orders, each one comprised of 10,000 Valtavien Warriors.

Scarlet Navy
The Scarlet Navy (Lyvasto) is indisputably one of the strongest navies on the planet, having a secure grip over the Astral Sea and the majority of the Eternal Ocean beyond. The Navy is comprised of vessels from two opposing eras; one of relic-craft from an ancient era of warfare and discovery, and the others are fresh ships constructed after the Valtavien League was founded. In total, the Valtavien Navy has 800 active craft of varying classes as well as over a million members (including reserves).

Rank Structure
The titles of the ranks for the Scarlet Host are based upon the skies and the stars, as they are viewed as a reincarnation of Estoar's Army, a force the war-god lead against the hellish Durgor living in the dark realms.
