Macemen (Firstborns)

The Mace Legions comprise another core aspect of the One King’s army. Resilient and severe, the Macemen are inwardly very different from their Sword brothers. The Macemen soldiers are drawn to study this weapon during their training, when it becomes evident that the anger they have needs a brutal outlet. Unlike a sword, which can quickly and cleanly take a life, the mace is an intimidating bludgeoning weapon, capable of inflicting crippling pain and invoking stark intimidation. Units of Macemen are deployed to break charging assailants as well as to remove fortifications. Warbands of Macemen have been recorded to have shattered walls and barricades, broken siege weaponry and demolished chariots, a feat accomplished by their heavy weapons and coordinated attacks.

It is said that a Maceman, once he undergoes the final Ritual of Worthiness, never leaves his weapon; it remains part of his person and is always by his side. Like the Sword Legions, Macemen are organized into smaller coordinated units and wear vibrant colors to denote their regiment and affiliation.
