Greetings from the office of the Earl Marshal,
Recently we have received questions on what the policy is for transitioning authorizations and warrants for combatants and marshals who move into the Kingdom of Northshield. After reviewing the current policy it was decided that it was a bit unclear, and had a tighter time frame then we like for gentles to be able to complete the process on top of settling in to their new home.
Therefore we have revised the policy to the following:
---------------------------------
Marshals Handbook
1.2. Authorization Cards And Waivers
E. Out Of Kingdom Authorization Cards
1.)Authorized combatants relocating to Northshield may apply to the KEM/DEM of their martial activity to have their authorizations transferred to Northshield. It is up to the DEM, or the appointed deputy, to determine to what degree, if any, the authorizations will transfer. Such applications must be made within twelve months of taking up residence in the kingdom. Applications made after that time require that the fighter must fight a standard field authorization to receive a Northshield authorization.
Additionally, warranted marshals have 12 months to apply to the KEM/DEM have their warrants transferred over to the Kingdom of Northshield. Prior to having their warrants transferred these marshals may act as constables only. The KEM/DEM will ensure that the marshal can show a knowledge of the Kingdom of Northshield's conventions in the requested activity/activities before they are warranted.
------------------------------------------------------------------
This policy will be published in the next Northwatch, and we hope to have the Marshals handbook updated by years end.
Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
In service to the Griffin Realm,
Baron Ansila the Goth
Northshield Earl Marshal
