After a recruit has been selected, and if they survive the training, they come upon the time of the Blooding. This is an ancient tradition, and one that has sadly fallen out of practice within the Mando'ade as a whole. It signifies the movement to a full verde, and is required to take up the Black.
On their Blooding mission, the recruit is placed with a full Protector, and they are sent on a mission for the good of the Mando'ade. Upon the successful completion of this mission, a recruit, depending on their performance, is considered a full verde and is allowed to take up the black in a ceremony upon The Brave Blood. However, to pass their Blooding, a recruit is graded on several factors.
1. Critical Thinking: If a Protector can not think for themselves in a rough situation, then they are unworthy of the title and are better off in one of the Clan battalions. Protectors pride themselves on their battlefield prowess, and a large part of that is being able to think outside the box. After all, going by the book means everyone knows what you're doing, and that gets good vode killed.
2. Brotherhood: A large part of being a Protector is the bond between him and his brothers. This bond is what allows us to do what we do. It takes the greatest love possible to protect all, and since the Protectors draw from all Clans, all ranks, and all walks of life, a Protector learns his brothers strengths, sees them at their lowest, and continues to fight for them. That is the true meaning of brotherhood.
3. Bravery: A Protector must be able to stare down danger and continue to be able to act, even through fear. After all, true bravery is overcoming fear and being able to do what is needed.
4: Combat skills: Of all of a Protector's attributes, this is one of the most important. Protectors have been known to clear out enemy groups where they are outgunned and out manned. To accomplish this, a Protector must be familiar with every type of weaponry, and be able to utilize it to its fullest potential. A minimum marksman score is required on the range, with 85% of shots counting as killshots.
5: A Sense of Justice: On a Blooding, the recruit will be called upon to confer justice. Depending on the severity of the offense, this can consist of anything from taking the suspect into custody for trial or execution on the spot. A Protector is Judge, Jury, and Executioner, and must be willing to exercise this right when needed.
After the Blooding, a recruit is conferred with the title of full Protector, and all of the rights and responsibilities attached to it.
