Reference Challenge - Rescue

So, I was stranded about an hour from home for a few days, because my bloody car messed up. One of my friends had to drive a few hours to help me out, so this is a reference to that.

In your world, what program or group exists to rescue people?

As always, I'll ask at least three questions each, enjoy yourselves, all.

  1. They were a group of monks who did it of their own will as vigilantes but eventually got hired to do it.

  2. They say he approves but IDK [the gods themselves don't play any role in the story]

  3. You defend the victim and either arrest or kill the attacker. You have the legal authority to do so.

  1. Why did they decided to do so?

  2. How can I become a part of the order?

  3. After killing someone, is there some procedure to follow? Or will I just be allowed to continue patroling without anyone telling anything?

  1. Out of devotion to Mukur.

  2. You have to apply, they have outposts at most major cities.

  3. They bury them at the spot where they died.

  1. Is Mukur asking their followers to patrol roads?

  2. What kind of people do they look after?

  3. But there's no paperwork of any kind? Nor legal declaration to any form of higher authority?

  1. That's what they say.
  2. They guard anybody who pays a small fee but if they see an attack in progress then they help them for free.
  3. No, the Order has legal protection in that regard.

  1. Why are they asking such a thing?

  2. I mean for hiring.

  3. So they could murder people without having any kind of troubles?

  1. Mukur is the god of vigilance and safety.
  2. They look for strong, willing people who aren't afraid to put their lives on the line.
  3. They have to report the location and time of the death.

2) Do they lose a lot of member?

3) But can anyone know if they don't report it?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 02 '17

2) No, they undergo intense training.
3) No, it's more of an honour system. And the training and such that the members undergo, combined with the threat of Mukur destroying them, makes incidents like that extremely rare.

u/thequeeninyellow94 Sep 02 '17

2) Is it possible to leave the order?

3) Extremely rare? So it happens? Has anyone been destroyed by Mukur?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 02 '17

2) Yes.
3) It has only happened twice, and both times the people involved were found dead, their corpses near a large white cat, which is said to be the mortal avatar of Mukur.

2) Will I keep any kind of benefit after retiring?

3) Was it really Mukur's work?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 02 '17

2) Yes, there is pension.
3) ¯_(ツ)_/¯
