The theocratic monarchy of Resta has a powerful military, bolstered by the country's great wealth. Several organizations have cropped up over the years, assuming various roles in the protection of Resta and its citizenry. The four major branches are:
The Royal Army
The main branch of the Restan military answers directly to the king and royal family. This order consists of soldiers of the greatest numbers during wartime, but fewest during peacetime. Lacking the magic of templars or spellwarriors, their training consists of use of firearms and other modern technological weapons. In wartime, they specialize in gathering intelligence. They are based out of the Army Camp north of Resta City.
The Spellwarriors
This branch of military is devoted primarily to peacekeeping. Spellwarriors train in a combination of mystic and martial arts for the purpose of protecting the common people. They are often at odds with templars as the two organizations have varying ideas of justice. In wartime, they specialize in combat on heavy terrain, due to their customary training through the rough Lightning Ridge. They are based in the magic school Hem Academy, near the town of Beldor. They are customarily led by the Archknight.
The Templars
This branch is a religious sect who vow to protect the interests of the Fadalians. They are responsible for the protection of sacred pilgrimages and the eradication of the gods’ enemies. They possess a longstanding rivalry with the spellwarriors as their morals are often defined by the clergy’s interpretation. In wartime, they are known for their powerful navy. They are trained in the relative quiet of Blackstone Monastery, along the southeast coast of the country.
The Goodwill Company
The Goodwill Company is a diplomatic military outfit that was formed for the purpose of lending Resta’s strength to its allies. It is composed of soldiers of various disciplines, including royal army spies, gunners, spellwarriors, and templars. They are used rarely, but have seen combat in every corner of the known world. They are ultimately loyal to Resta, but are trained to fight with equal zeal for whatever cause they are commanded to.
