This here is a forum entitling the rank system for House Greyjoy. This forum was created to help stop free-ranking in Greyjoy.
There are special cases where you may freerank someone such as you are a rank that will allow you to have a squire, and you may choose one. Even if you choose a new Greyjoy, they are allowed to rank up to squire automatically. As well, those who are Master-At-Arms rank+ are allowed to have someone be their squire but ranked to knight instead of squire. As well, freeranking may be allowed for cases of Direct Family, Council of Pyke, and anyone that has a specific rank titled for them, such as (Ser Maron Greyjoy for Soloburnz) as well as (Lord Balon Greyjoy, Ruler Of Pyke for Vorsai).
Just so you know, trainings do not stack up, as in, in order to get to Greyjoy Thrall to Greyjoy Man-at-arms, one would have to Attend three trainings-One Training to Become a Levy, and Two more Trainings to become a Man-at-Arms.
The following below is of the possible military ranks. All Greyjoy members no matter their rank should be treated with respect. Even if you are a rank above them, that does not give you a right to give them orders unless you are ordered to by a Captain rank+ or for special cases, those who you squire for.
Greyjoy Thrall to Greyjoy Levy would take one training.
Greyjoy Levy to Greyjoy Man-At-Arms would take two trainings.
Greyjoy Man-At-Arms to Greyjoy Reaver would take four trainings.
Greyjoy Reaver to Greyjoy Ravager would take 5-6 trainings.
Greyjoy ravager to Greyjoy squire would take two to three weeks of training(be active and attend events for Greyjoy for two-three weeks).
Greyjoy Squire to Greyjoy Knight would take three to four weeks of training(be active and attend events for Greyjoy for three or four more weeks).
Greyjoy Knight to Greyjoy Captain would take one to two months of training, as well as decided on by those with Captain ranks+(be active and attend events for Martell for one month or two more months).
Greyjoy Ironguard is earned by participating in a special Ironguard tryout. No one can be ranked this unless they have participated in the Ironguard tryout and the host has deemed that they are worthy to be an Ironguard. Just so you know, Ironguard is an elite Greyjoy force; they are on the same level as Knights, and they should be treated with respect as such. Ironguard tryouts will be shouted ahead of time.
Greyjoy Captain to Greyjoy Master-At-Arms would be decided on by the Leader, Lord Commander, and Council of Pyke ranks+.
Greyjoy Master-At-Arms to Greyjoy Lord Commander would be decided on by the leader, the heir, and by the Lord Commander(if there is one at the time;if there are multiple Lord Commanders present, then they may help decide on who the new Lord Commander will be).
