Military folk (Mill-il-tary)
Being in the military in Garda is a privileged but very dangerous job. The military folk are the second lowest on the social scale but that does not mean they are treated poorly. Soldiers are highly respected in their communities and some high ranking generals, if they're lucky enough, land themselves a position at court.
Anybody of any social class, gender, or magical ability can join the military. Joining the military is a popular job choice for people with no magical ability as the military is more physical strength then magical strength. The only kingdom that has 'protectors' rather then a military is the death kingdom.
Most soldiers come from commoner families who either just love the thrill of fighting or want a some what of better life for themselves and their family.
Qualifications
To join the military they must have basic training, gone through the training camp process and know how to wield either a sword or a bow and arrow. The qualifications differ for each kingdom but the general idea is that.
Requirements
Any gender can join the military in any kingdom (that includes LGBT folk too), most soldiers should try to enlist when they're young (18-20's) and having an ancestor in the military can really help a persons chances of getting in.
