The Wynterwulf Marauders
Recruitment Status: OPEN
The Wynterwulf Marauders are the latest warband established under the banner of House Wulf, a minor noble house recognized by Ishgard. This family mixed of proud, hardened hyur and elezen born of Coerthas have taken to the traditional Ishgardian knightly lifestyles while simultaneously clinging to their more traditional customs that are fit for the family. Not as secluded as some of the more traditional Ishgardian houses, the Marauders are made of those sworn to the household as well as many mercenaries and sellswords from all walks of life. They are proudly one of the more proactive Ishgardian forces constantly skirmishing with hostile bordering groups and, even more so, they relish the chance in spilling blood in a glory filled battle against the Garlean Empire.In this household of fighters you will find rough and tough sellswords, hardened northern warriors and knights of honor; all working together to protect the den of Wulves and her allies safe.

The Birth of the Marauders
There are three Warbands of Marauders that serve the Wulf Clan and Household. These warbands had been first created with Jorgen Icewulf and his band of companions who left their homelands traveling all across the world as a band of mercenaries. Barbaric, Savage, Animal like, yet Honorable and rarely left a job uncompleted.Even keeping to the warband lifestyle when they eventually become warriors of House Fortemps and later on vassals. Allowing future generations of Jorgen's bloodline to create two more warbands.The Warbands today are the following:Band of the Icewulf: The eldest warriors of the Clan who protect the revered Shamans.Band of the Greywulf: The previous Jarl's warband that now mainly serves as a Vanguard and homefront guard.Band of the Wynterwulf: The newest and larger of the three Warbands that focuses on more external threats. Be it mercenary work or fighting for Clan and kin across Ishgard's war campaigns.

The Ranks & Roster
Heads of House
The Jarl or to the fellow nobles of Ishgard, Baron or Lord is the head of the Clan and Household. The Jarl of Clan Wulf runs all the Warbands currently, Icewulf, Greywulf and Wynterwulf with the assistance of the Warlord. Making sure every Warleader and their Warband are fufilling their tasks and duties. As well as making sure the Clan keeps its influence in Coerthas and Ishgard alike.
The Warlord of the marauders is the same stubborn and glory seeking soul that leads the household. During this chapter within the Clan's ongoing saga. The Warlord and the Jarl are the same. As Jarl of Clan Wulf, he is commonly seen leading the warriors of the clan and its warbands in nearly any engagement on the field of battle; even working less than glorious jobs amongst his knights and mercenaries. The word of the Warlord is final, and should be followed. It is common to find him, his second-in-command or the War Council helping him finding work and foes for them to sink their weapons into.
The Warleader is the second-in-command of the assigned Warband itself in its entirety. For whatever reason the Jarl & Warlord may be absent— whether it be dealing with nobles, handling other jobs or off fighting another battle— it is common to find the Warleader picking up the mantle and leading the Warband of House Wulf into some of its harder fought battles.
