Formation of the Wiyrkomi Honor Guard

In the ongoing struggle for stability, strength and independence for the State and the Caldari people as a whole, it has become my desire and purpose to serve honorably alongside my kin (in spirit and ideal before blood). I have therefore turned my back on the dishonorable direction pursued by my ancestors and have instead decided to pursue a course that will hopefully restore the honor of my ancestry and my own personal honor.

In speaking with those of you that have taken the time to associate with me, I have been shown perspectives and truths that I have remained (willingly or otherwise) blind to for most of my life. It is my intention to honor you as well with the path I now pursue.

To that end, I have been given clearance to form the Wiyrkomi Honor Guard under the banner of the Wiyrkomi Corporation, a Patriot Corporation known for its trustworthiness and honor both in business and in politics.

In keeping with that tradition, I have decided that the Honor Guard shall maintain an open policy regarding its business and its tenets, so that it will operate with honor and in trust throughout its existence. The documents following this initial declaration are the beginning of the foundation for this Honor Guard and are currently still being revised for completion. Please direct any questions or contentions to me.

The Honor Guard currently does not serve officially in the State militia but there are considerations for it doing so in the future. All members of the Honor Guard will have a measure of say regarding its policies, operations and direction. The operation of the Honor Guard will change as becomes necessary to fulfill its purpose and serve in the capacities it is capable of serving in.

To those interested: The Honor Guard is currently accepting applications for employment, any questions, concerns or complaints should be directed to me through mail so that I may respond to them appropriately and diligently.

In honor and service,
Captain Malcolm Khross

Standing Operating Procedure


Absent of Declared Hostilities

The Honor Guard is considered to be in a State of "Absentia" from Declared Hostilities when there are no active war declarations on the Wiyrkomi Corporation, its affiliates, partners and allies, the Honor Guard, its affiliates, partners and allies and it is currently not employing any active contracts. During the State of Absentia, members of the Honor Guard may operate individually provided they continue to uphold the ideals, tenets and regulations of honor and trustworthiness expected of them.

During a State of Absentia, the Honor Guard is free to assist in agent work or cooperative operations with any entity not in negative standing with the State, the Wiyrkomi Corporation, the Honor Guard or any affiliates, partners, allies and clients thereof.

Existence of Declared Hostilities

The Honor Guard is considered to be in a State of Hostility when there are active war declarations against the Wiyrkomi Corporation, the Honor Guard or any affiliates, partners, allies and clients thereof. During a State of Hostility, members of the Honor Guard will operate under the guidelines set forth in the Rules of Engagement.

Contract

The Honor Guard is considered to be in a State of Contract any time there is an active contract. The conditions and expectations of the contract are to be honored at all times and all members of the Honor Guard are expected to contribute where able. Specifics will be laid out per contract with blanket guidelines laid out in the Rules of Engagement.

Standard Operation
(Regardless of State)

Piracy: The Honor Guard will not engage in acts of piracy, piracy being defined by the Honor Guard as any hostile action taken against an entity not actively engaged in hostilities against the Caldari State, the Wiyrkomi Corporation, the Honor Guard or any affiliates, partner, allies and clients thereof.
*Exceptions: In the case of hostile action taken against members of the Guristas, Blood Raider Covenant, Serpentis, Sansha's Nation, Angel Cartel or any affiliates, partners, allies and sympathizers thereof, the Honor Guard considers these organizations to be in a constant State of Hostility.

Honorable Engagements: Members of the Honor Guard are expected to uphold the highest in standards of honor and trustworthiness. If a member of the Honor Guard enters into an arranged engagement (be it solo or otherwise), that member will honor the arrangement. Members of the Honor Guard may not betray the arrangement by any means violating the conditions of the arrangement. In the case of capsuleer combat, the capsule of the opponent is not to be engaged following the resolution of the conflict and is to be treated as a non-hostile entity.

Dishonorable Engagements: Should any entity breach the conditions of an arranged engagement, such breaches should be brought before the executive panel and those entities will be set to negative standings and considered "Dishonored" in regards to the Honor Guard. Dishonored entities are to be considered in a constant State of Hostility and engaged accordingly. Any member of the Honor Guard found guilty of breaching the conditions of an arranged engagement will be subject to harsh disciplinary action, expulsion from the ranks of the Honor Guard and/or establishment as a Dishonored entity.

Assistance of Partnerships: All members of the Honor Guard are expected to honor partnership arrangements and are free to assist any affiliate or partner of the Honor Guard at all times.

Procedure for Declaring of Hostilities

All declarations of hostility against an entity by the Honor Guard will follow the outlined procedures established by CONCORD in addition to those listed below.

Any declaration of hostility set forth by the Honor Guard will be made public so as to uphold the spirit of honor. All entities set to hostile by the Honor Guard will be considered free to engage following the guidelines established in the Rules of Engagement.

In the event that a partner or affiliate of the Honor Guard enters into a State of Hostility with an entity other than the Honor Guard and any of its other affiliates, partner, allies or clients, the Honor Guard will declare hostilities against the offending entity (that being the entity engaging the partner or affiliate) and consider itself in an active State of Hostility.

Any acceptance of a contract that would place the Honor Guard in direct hostility against another entity shall be made public. The declaration of hostility against the entity(ies) listed in the contract shall be made public and the Honor Guard will consider itself in an active State of Hostility.

Procedure for Declaring Cessation

Any cessation of hostilities by the Honor Guard will be made public to counter the declaration of hostility. All members of the Honor Guard are expected to uphold the cessation of hostility immediately and completely.

The Standing Operating Procedure is subject to alteration, modification and adaptation based on the demand, circumstance and evolution of the Honor Guard, its roles, affiliates and partners. Alterations to the SOP must be made public and must only occur with permission from the executive panel under the conditions that it is deemed necessary (or reasonable) due to outlying extreme circumstances, conflicts of interest or change in the Honor Guard's roles.

This document is considered an adaptable document, subject to change under the guidelines listed above throughout the existence and operation of the Honor Guard and to be used in conjunction with the Rules of Engagement for regulating the operations of the Honor Guard.

The self delusional mindset of the Caldari corps never cease to amaze me. You speak of the State as if it were united in one goal. The current situation in the State is anything but unified, your State is being lead by a mad man in the form of Heth. Furthermore infighting among the Corps is far worse than it ever has been. It is such a shame that Otro Gariushi former CEO of Ishikuone is no longer alive to bring come sense to the State.

Your spelling mistakes aside, there is nothing you have said which draws an effective attack against the State. That the State is supposedly lead by a madman does not prohibit it from being united; nor, either, does the MegaCorporations being involved in perpetual competition prohibit either of the above assertions. It seems to me that you simply do not like the State, and that is fine I suppose. You've left, presumably; good for you. What good do you believe you will do, posting in a thread created by and supported by State loyalists, spouting off negative words? At the best, you will be ignored; at the worst, you will find yourself the subject of derision, mockery, or warfare.

The State is united in a single goal. The survival and independence of its member corporations.

Some, like KK's CEO, extend independence to include cultural independence from outsiders, particularly the Gallente.

As for the late, Gariushi-haan, may his spirit rest, it is amazing how much faith people had in a man who appeared out of nowhere to run Ishukone and how little they have in Heth-haan, whose immediate origin is quiet clear.

Perhaps you have substantive thoughts on the ills of the State and not mere venom to spew because you simply do not like us?

Either way, you are not be the first nor will you be the last to call us names or deride our methods of governance (or lack there of).

*This clip opens up with a video of Malcolm staring plainly at the screen before facepalming hard enough to hear the bones in his wrist crack. Wincing slightly as he pulls his hand away, shaking it gently, he grumbles and begins to type.*

Since you clearly missed the point of the original declaration entirely, I'll make it simple:

We work to help create a stable, unified and prosperous State based on the ideals of honor, integrity and the practice of placing the needs of the community above the needs of self.

Also, are you even in the State or are you just speaking from what you perceive outside the State? Because, "infighting between the corps is far worse than it ever has been" isn't backed by any factual documentation you could possibly present because every factual documentation related to the corps shows a greater sense of cooperation and coordination than ever before.

If you're going to try to profane my corporation's founding declaration, at least present your argument constructively and factually. Otherwise, take your particular brand of stupidity back to the Federation political arena, thanks.
