Battalion Household
Household Description
A household with a warrior mentality and "struggle play" focus, based on the model of medieval chivalry, European chivalric ideals, Bushido, and, in the the M/s department, the concept of the "knight-squire" relationship. Household activities revolve largely around training the body and developing tactical thinking.
This mixed gender Household is maintained fulltime.
The current size of Battalion is: 3 core plus 3+ revolving retinue members/trainees
Vision Statement
"Honor first, reason always, cowardice never." "The improvement of the self for the improvement of the whole."
Household Goals
Prime emphasis is placed on the development and upholding of the ideals of honor, loyalty, self-sacrifice, hardiness, and prowess. Household members are encouraged to pursue short and long term goals based on self-improvement. The household provides education on "struggle play" (combat-related play) within the greater community.
Structural Model
A blending of medieval European chivalry and Japanese Bushido, with the Master-slave dynamic being based on an idealized knight-squire relationship
