Clan:Dark Thunder/Scorpion Training

Training
The Scorpions train until they are ready to chose a specialized job, usually one within the Allied Divisions.

First Training Phase
The first phase of Scorpion training is the test which is taken by everyone who wants to start the training. Failing the test means not being allowed to take the training and having to wait for the next test. Before the test a examiner, usually a sergeant, or in some cases a soldier of higher rank, makes sure that the soldiers taking the test have not brought anything with them. They are then given the choice of one item, and the choices are usually the following: chicken, iron longsword, iron kiteshield. They are then brought to the wilderness where they are told to fight each other using the item they chose. In the original test the examiner waits until only one survives then the surviver is brought out of the wilderness where he is assigned to a sergeant of, usually, a division within the Allied Divisions, who will train him and assign him missions. This however has been changed, and is now the last 50% of the soldiers taking the test being allowed to take the training. The test is used to assure that that we do not waste our time training those who are not fit for training.

Second Training Phase
In the second training phase Scorpions continue their training with their assigned sergeant taking on missions of medium difficulty assigned to them by the assigned sergeant's lieutenant or captain, though the captain can rarely be bothered, and they will continue like this until they meet the requirements to be qualified as official members of their sergeant's squad
