Ranks Revised
Posted: Thu Apr 15, 2004 9:19 pm Reply with quote
First rank: Shaido
Second rank: Spear Brother/Sister
Third rank: Siswai'aman
Fourth and final rank: Algai'd'siswai
To become a Wise One, you must follow a different path.
First rank: Gai'shain
Second rank: Apprentice
Third rank: Shaido Wise One
Fourth and Final: Wise One
To rise in a rank, you must gain points.
First rank: Post which path.
Second rank: Five points
Third rank: Ten points
Fourth rank: Fifteen points
Once you gain a rank, all your previous points are gone, leaving you with zero points. For example, you've just gained second rank, now you need ten more points to gain third.
Is that better?

Sounds good to me, Ranking systems are good, but I may just stick to being ol'Rhu. *lol* I am not really worried about OOC rank, although I will try to help you guys out as best I can icon_smile.gif

First, I think you've got too many ranks. I think that 3 should be the max. A beginner type, midling, and then old hand. Second, it would be nice to use titles that are WoT related, or at least something that most people here know and/or can relate to. Such as the socities that exist of the Aiel in the books. As far as your basic point system goes, that doesn't seem bad at all, but you might want to increase the numbers. Because five points to go up the first time doesn't seem like much. I mean, if each thing you do for points has a minimum of one, then that seems like it's not worth too much. And also, how do old-hands fit it to that? Those of us who have been here for a long time. Just a few things to think about.

SG has some 20 ranks. Though split into 6 levels, like you have em in 4. 4 ain't too much I'm thinking.
And having a small nunmber of required points to reach your first promotion is the right way to go, though you could increase the point requirement for 4th rank.

That's a lot of ranks.... I'll see to changing the names though. And I was thinking of making points harder as you go along *weg*.

That looks fairly straightforward. So there are two main groups, Wise Ones and Spear sister/brothers. But within those are there any different groups? For instance, right now in the WT there are two main groups (sorta), Warders and Aes Sedai, and then there are the Ajahs and soon, the Disciplines...
I know that some say they don't want too many ranks but having something to sorta specially define you even more than just "Wise One" or "Spear Sister" is quite special.

Anywhere is fine. Although preferably it would be a new thread, like your introduction if your a newbie. No need for you to repost, since I got it.

Well, if you look at it from that perspective (I just asumed you valued Shaido less then other Clans cus of what happens with them later in the book), then basically you're saying that this rank that is jie-tohless is still worthy of being almost the top-most rank among the Aiel?

What I am saying is that it would be improper to have a Wise One, any kind, less than a Gai'shain or Apprentice.
