I figured since it isn't of any consequence now I'd share some stuff. To start off with, the graced ones.


(Full of errors. I apologize.)

Graced Ones

Missions: 
• Information gathering of societies newly discovered by the Prota (Scythian's, Amazons etc.)
• Extermination of enemy spies within the Prota and their allies lands
• Assassination of enemy leaders (this has to be disscussed by its involved parties)

Training: () = who is in charge of training and how it is to be done
• Martial Arts (Femercine, part of the martial art training will be in increasing the student's will power)
• Horseback Riding (The Kai)
• Seduction (Femercine)
• Navigation (Thekasios)
• Stealth (Thieves, preferably ones that are fearful and cowardly AKA those who would train for fear of their life, from anyone's territory)
• Archery (The Kai)
• Sailing (Thekasios)
• Physical Training (The Kai, since he has Sparta)
• Persuasion (Thekasios, because of his Dellian League Sailors)
• Lock Picking(Thieves, same previous preferences)
• Botany (The Kai, since he has access to Chiron)
• Maintaining an Identity (Femercine, any actors which are good at playing various roles will be recruited as teachers)
• Methods of Secrecy (anyone can do this it just needs to be done)

These can be added to later as it is discussed with the others. They will begin learning the curriculum at age 8, they will start martial art training at age 12 and will begin seduction training at age 17, they will have mastered all subjects at age 20 if the schedule proceeds to work. The original teaching is advanced but still within normal expectations, it isn't until they turn 12 when they start to learn anything that differs extremely from the normal curriculum of a school. If a student doesn't show real aptitude for being a spy they'll be transferred into a different school and put into a normal curriculum. If they do not pass a certified skill test then they will be rejected until they learn everything that is needed. They have between 18 and 24 to learn everything. Once they reach the age of 24 they will be forced graduated or killed depending on their aptitude. Training will vary depending on what role the student has the best aptitude for (If they are better at sneaking, going undercover, Administration etc.). The training will focus on being a member of the Graced Ones and they will be expected to worship all gods involved in its use unless the worship would break their cover.

Recruitment: We will use the Kai's state funded education as a cover and have a special section for just training, the training will start at age 8 and will consist of just orphans. These orphan's will be age 6 when they start, they will be sent to a special school set up by the Kai, the classes will be composed of only one age group and there will 24 students of the same age group, these students can be of any gender. Students that take place in the program are to be orphans adopted by the state government (any orphan in the prota's or my lands is fair game).

Information: They will focus on translating new cultures language, learning everything they can about the new culture (views on gender, methods of fighting, government style, etc.), and the area's history. Any and all information found is to be shared between the gods contributing to the Graced Ones.

Betrayal Prevention: If a god orders an agent to work only for them or order's one of the higher ups to not to tell the others certain information then the party being forced to comply will do so but later inform other member's of what has happened so that the betrayal is known.

Mission Planning and Execution: Missions will be planned by strategists but the operatives are expected to be able to improvise if necessary. If the mission goes awry the operative is expected to be able to escape, if the operative cannot escape he is to commit suicide to prevent people from learning about The Graced Ones.

Funding: To be funded secretly through the profits made in brothels as well as the Kai's and Thekasios' religious organizations.
That is all for now, I may tell you of additional changes based on the others reactions.

This will change based on the others reactions to it, I'll tell you of any changes involved in it.


Ranks and Positions within the Graced Ones

Agent types


• Assassin: eliminates targets that have been designated by the patron gods.
• Moles: take up a role and infiltrate an organization, they then leak information to the Graced Ones
• Informants: stay in a city and collect information about the activity there as well as the culture and history of the location.


Catalouger types


• Local: they keep track of informatino on a local level, will blend into the society there and work in coersion with the eaves droppers. A counsel of them work together if the area being observed is rather big]
• Main Arhcive: work in “base” (we don’t have one at the moment but will eventually have one, also it will take time to get recruits in operation) and catalogues and distributes information.


Planner types


• Local: plans missions on an individual basis
• Grand:plans how entire espianoge strategies work and how they will accomplish certain goals (within already determined parameters)


And then there are trainers, however this part has two roles, train agents and future trainers. It is composed of people who were trained to train and people who have aged to much to be valuable in their position.


Graced Ones Message Relay System

Methods


• Members of the Graced ones that are trained in pegasid riding
• Normal methods (walking, horseback and sailing)


Precautions


• No one is to know you are delivering something it is always “I’m heading out to visit relatives” or “I have a bussiness meeting in ____”
• The message is coded so that people reading it won’t be able to know what it means unless they have the decoder
• Only the sender and reciever will know the info, messengers are not to look at the messages or to have any form of decoding


How it is Organized


• Moles and Infiltrators collect information
• Information is given to regions operation base
• Regional base sends messenger to main base. Other regional bases may receive information depending on type of information
• Other bases catalouge information 
• Information is distributed it to agents that require it




Bases of the Graced Ones
Operating Base
• Prefferable Locations: Caves with Water, Remote Islands, Rooms found in sewers
• Defenses: riding tower, fog, small fleet (2-3 ships)
• Rooms and Facilities (may not be included if location does not allow, *=nessacary) : Main Library*, stables, Archery Range, Quarters*, Map Room/Strategy room*, Docks, Flat Field for Practise, lockpicking rooms (they just have locked chests what do you want from me), Stealth Challenge Rooms, orchard, sea orchard
• Operation: failed recruits will act as manual labour, they have been brainwashed to believe being a member of the Graced Ones is the only way to live so it would be unfair of us to deny them an oppurtunity to fufill what they were meant to fufill. They will perform farming, janitorial, stable duty, basically anything that wouldn’t be done by an operative.
• Methods of Delivering Supplies:If is is something you can’t get in the territory
Main Base
• Location: secluded island, with cave system, must have the same amount of usable land as an average military base with the addition of a grove for my plants and a grazing field. There should also be enough shore for a small fleet of 5 ships and enough cave space for quarters and a large library (size of the library of Alexandria).
• Methods of secrecy: fog to prevent ships, sharks as well, people will get lost if they get close, the base will have its own Pegasid riders for messaging.
• Supplies:food is to be made on the island or gathered from the see, things like papyrus are to be grown in a small quantity but most of the documents would be written when they are delivered.


Tests for the Graced Ones (some will be done on different days due to the extent of the physical strain that they may go through)
• Stealth- the cadidate will steal something from a rider’s tower and then put it back up there later in the week. If they are caught they will have to escape from jail before trying again, if they don’t they will be killed, this is no place for the weak.
• Combat- defeat an angry prison mob, kill a 1 or 2 lion(s) in a cage match or do well in a spar with a master martial artist. The trainee must also be able to kill someone, a murderer or rapist will be executed with their bare hands.
• Fitness- be able to run 30 kilometers, 10 kilometers of it will be done with the weight of a grown man on their backs. Run through an obstacle course (climbing walls, straight tall walls, small tunnels etc.) in a certain amount of time. Swim for an hour at full speed (a ship will be there to monitor it).
• Horseback- run and obstacle course in a certain amount of time and also have them lose a riding pursuer while on horse back while riding through a city. They need to be able to disarm a man on horse back both while riding and while not riding.
• Persuasion/Seduction- have someone give them something as valuable as a gold ring or as important as a family heirloom
• Archery- accurately hit a certain amount of targets within a certain amount of time.
• Navigation/Sailing test: students while blindfolded and asleep out to some random point out at sea (or some random island) and have them find their way back to Rhodes
• Lockpicking- Pick ten locks of varying difficulty within 3 minutes.
• Maintaining an Identity- Be implanted in a small town and pretend to be a former solidier for a month
• Maintaining Secrecy- Be able to go from carthage to a Graced Ones stronghold (Greece, Rhodes etc) while carrying a message, it can be coded or remembered in their heads.
• Botany- Identify a random selection of 30-40 plants
