The Phoenix Order is a Brigade that originated out of a strong desire to accept the good and the bad of both Order and Chaos and to understand that sometimes the best thing to do is to walk away from a situation, rather than exacerbate it.
Originally it started with Celsus recruiting a few close acquaintances, but has since expanded to those outside of this circle. His current Brigade is all made up of people that Celsus trusts and cares for, however many members have gone off to retire or have stepped away from the powered life in general.
Celsus cares a great deal for integrity and intelligence; he also welcomes especially those who may be struggling or those who may need a bit of support or help to get them to where they'd like to be. He prizes strength of character and a good heart, even if that heart may not necessarily be a strong one.
While knight of any stage may join the Brigade, it is important to understand that Celsus himself is not necessarily the leader; he believes very strongly in working together versus him telling people what to do. He may be the founder, but he doesn't see himself as the end-all-be-all of leaders and welcomes ideas, opinions, and thoughts of all members and even non-members.
OOC: This Brigade has already been approved; a few things were partially started, but never finished and will either be retconned or worked into a new plotline!

Goals and Purposes: Encourage communication among both Brigade members and Order-side members, as well as Chaos.
Be realistic and straightfoward; most of all, don't put Order members up on a pedestal or imply that Order is "right" and Chaos is "wrong;" it's important to show that all sides have their strengths and their weaknesses.
The Phoenix Order is based on honesty and truthfulness, not deceit. They will not lie in order to achieve their goals, nor pressure.
Celsus is the Captain; however, he respects and asks for all opinions and ideas, and does not see himself as “above” the members of his brigade. They are meant to be united, not controlled.
Encourage Purification to Order without pressure or idealism; it's important to understand that while Purification is the end goal, it shouldn't overshadow personal struggles, disagreements, or glorifying Order members.
Listen and try to understand where people are coming from, on all sides, whether Order, Chaos, DMC, etc.
Violence isn't discouraged, but not encouraged to be a constant method, either. Sometimes violence is necessary in the course of defending oneself or others or in the case of unreasonable people, and this is understood and supported.
Headquarters: Comfortable, large leather couches and a calm atmosphere is the main feeling one gets when they enter the room. It looks more like a lounge than a meeting room, very warm and relaxing; not particularly large, but it doesn't need to be.
It is pleasantly spacious and rectangular, with a fireplace down at one end, set into one wall. In front of the fireplace is a circular red carpet, a series of squashy armchairs and couches arranged in a casual, relaxed sort of way that invite comfort and ease.
In the center of the room is a circular table, made of some sort of glossy dark wood. Surrounding it are a series of wood and leather backed chairs, like a conference table, candles in little glass votives scattered in an elegant circle somewhere in the middle.
The room smells of fire and cinnamon and pine.
A door stands on one end of the room, with mysterious slots in a circle, as though something is meant to go there...
OOC: Please simply post with a link to your character / journal and let me know why your character would be a good fit for this Brigade!

I want to throw Knossos in here but he's not awakened yet XD But he'd def want to learn everything he could about being a Chronos knight, not to mention this brigade is his cup of tea.

Skye Starrfyre The only solution is to wake him up! I concur! It's just figuring that part out. Was talking to Kuro about some ideas and I just need to get around to setting something up!

I have Heliopolis! She's technically still new to all this, but she's very much one who believes that everyone deserves a fair chance and that situations can be complicated.
