Creating a society/order?
Sir Brian:
I can kneel readily enough with my armor. ;)
Those ceremony scrolls include one for your own Knight Commander ceremony? ~ That is assuming you are ok with the ceremony I proposed?
--- Quote from: Sir Brian on 2011-05-19, 17:49:35 ---Hmm we can work the fealty oath to the KC after this perhaps?
I was thinking that one of us new knights could officiate by addressing all present that as a new order we would now raise up one among us to bear the mantle of leadership for our knightly order. He (Sir William or I) should mention that as representatives of our order we will preside over the ceremony and see that the will of the order is fulfilled.
The candidate should then be called forth to and kneel before the two officiating knights.
Knight One: “"Who comes before us seeking the mantle of Leadership?"”
KC: “"I do! Sir Edward ..." (and whatever applicable titles you wish to add).
Knight Two: “"Whom do you seek to Serve?"”
KC: “"My brethren both great and small in station within the Order of the Marshall."”
Both Knights in Unison: “"And how will you command them?"”
KC: “"In Honor, Chivalry, Truth and righteous Humility."”
Knight One addressing the entire Order: “"Brethren do you accept Sir Edward as your Knight Commander of our Order? Signify your consent with an AYE".
Knight Two presents the knight’s chain with the Knight Commander Pendant and places it around the Knight Commander's neck.
Knight One and Two in Unison: "Arise Sir Edward and accept our homage and our oaths of fealty."
--- Quote ---"I, Sir Your Name Here do solemnly swear to uphold the Order with all honor and chivalry, and agree to abide by the rulings of the Knight Commander as well as the bylaws of said Order as they are written and shall discharge my duties as a Knight of the Order of the Marshal with all of the honesty and integrity I possess as a Knight and as Head of my House."

Sir William:
Hey, if we are going to do that, maybe print out a couple of copies so we're all in unison?
Sir Edward:
Yep, I think this is the portion I'll be printing:

Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Good luck all, I will be there in spirit if not the flesh.

Sir Brian:
Cool! Ok so don't forget your knightly chain (wish we had enough time to design and have fabricated a more official medallion for you!) :-\
Sir William which role do you wish to take in the ceremony? Thing #1 or Thing #2 ;)
@ Sir Gerard: Most definately good sir as you've been an inspiration to us all since joining us! :)
