Hail
and well met friend.
Welcome to thee brave traveler
of the internet highways. Rest, take food and drink. Take peace and enjoy
the sanctuary of our keep. We are the Brothers and Sisters of Order Swordbruden,
Faithful Sword of the Holy Church, guardians of Justice, protectors of
the innocent and defenders of the weak and helpless. Stay with us for a
time and be comforted, for within these walls there is naught to fear.
Once thee has finished looking around please stop
back on this page to sign our Guest Book. Just click the red button that
says "What is Swordbruden." That will return thee to this parchment, just
go to the bottom of this parchment.
Order Swordbruden is the recreation of a Militant Religious Order of Germanic
Knights who received their charter
from the hand of Pope Innocent III in 1204 a.d. In its present day form,
Order Swordbruden has become a world wide group of diverse people stretching
from Canada and the U.S., out towards Australia and New Zealand, and reaching
all the way to the European communities of Great Britian, to including
the mainland with Denmark, Germany, and the Neatherlands. We are dedicated
to the preservation and expansion of Honor, Valor, Chivalry, Justice, Truth,
Mercy, and Brotherhood through online role playing and modeling in various
cyber worlds as well as physical reenactments, demonstrations and gatherings
in the real world. Order Swordbruden is not limited to Knights and Warriors,
but embraces all those of noble heart, be they Wizard, Cleric, Merchant,
or Tradesman. We dedicate ourselves to the preservation of the highest
historical and idealized principles of Arthurian legend, the courts of
Charlemagne and other equally principled elements of medieval customs and
renaissance nobility. We provide a framework of mutual support and respect,
training, teaching and loyal friendship for other persons of like mind
who wish to explore, enjoy and participate in this rich historical style
of living so different from what can be found today.
At the base of our beliefs are
the principals of Honor, Valor, Chivalry, Justice, Truth, Mercy, and Brotherhood.
Difficult to explain and harder to live by but we strive to employ these
values without compromise in our adventuring, our communications and our
gatherings. We not only try to live by these values in the real world,
but we also strongly encourage it in the gaming world. A brief reading
of our Organizational ByLaws,
Oath of Honor, Principles of Chivalry Values, and our
Role Playing Etiquette, may give a fair, first glimpse of who we are.
