The Citadel

Whether or not you believe in the oncoming war of "Ragnarok" or the "gods"' plea for help, there is an undeniable threat upon the people of Asgard, native and Traveller alike. We were brought here against our will into a battle we never asked for - and are not prepared for. They gave us sorcery. We give you steel.

You have a right to defend yourselves and your loved ones, and we intend to teach you how. At the Citadel, you will learn not just strength of body, but strength of mind and strength of heart. If it's a war they want, it's a war they'll get - and we'll be ready for it when it comes.

It's time now to stand and fight, Asgard. We will not be defeated.

Location

The Citadel is located in the Thor district, a short distance from the Arena. It's open to both Travellers and Native Asgardians alike.

Pricing & Fees

There is no set fee for any one course (mostly because I'm lazy whoops) but their main priority is making sure people are capable of defending themselves, so payment can be worked out on a case-by-case basis by speaking with Merlin. For the most part though, I think I once said like 7 silver runes every other week for one course, so, you know. There's that?

Code of Conduct

1.) The first and foremost rule is that of courtesy - the knight's code will be adhered to strictly under penalty of banishment from the grounds.
2.) Absolutely under no circumstances are there to be unapproved or unsupervised spars or duels.
3.) ~~At no point in time are automatic firearms allowed on the premises.~~ ( rescinded as of Nov 2013. only took forever and a day!! )
