Ranks and Paths of Magna Carta

In Magna Carta, every warrior embarks on a journey. From their first step onto the field—clad in steel, driven by resolve—they begin a path that may one day see them knighted or rise to command others. Here, glory is not inherited. It is earned.

The Five Ranks

Our ranking system is built upon five ascending titles, each reflecting a fighter’s growing experience, prowess, and commitment:

  • Novice
  • Man-at-Arms
  • Squire
  • Knight
  • Commander

These ranks are not mere decorations. They are honors forged in battle, duty, and dedication—earned through one of the four distinct Paths of Magna Carta.

The Four Paths

Every member of Magna Carta has a road to walk. Some find meaning in long service and camaraderie. Others seek triumph in personal combat. Some step forward to lead, while others empower the Order in less visible but equally vital ways.

Whatever your strengths—endurance, skill, leadership, or loyalty—there is a path for you:

  • Path of the Warrior — for those who return to the field again and again, serving with persistence and honor.
  • Path of Valor — for duelists and champions who carve their name in steel.
  • Path of Leadership — for those who guide others and build the Order’s future.
  • Honorary Path — for those who strengthen Magna Carta through support, alliance, and dedication off the field.

Each path is a reflection of a fighter’s values and focus. Some will find their calling in the clash of halberds, others in the fire of single combat, the burden of command, or the loyalty of service. No path is superior—each contributes to the strength and spirit of Magna Carta.
