Background

The Janissary Regiment is formed of the Orphans, the Donated, and the Delivered. The Orphans are those recruited at a very young age from the orphanges of Funduq. The Donated are those given up by poor dhimmi parents (those of non-Islamic faith) in the inhospitable frontiers of Bourak so that they might have a better future in the cities. The Delivered are the children of infidels captured by slave traders; what the traders cannot sell on open market, they sell to Haqqislam. All alike are taken to high performance training centres secreted around Funduq and educated in the Haqqislamite Virtues and the rigours of military life. / When their training is complete, young Janissaries are solid warriors and staunch believers in their (often adopted) faith. The Janissaries are specialised in the use of tactical armoured exoskeletons and dedicated to withstanding the worst of any combat.


Janissaries are a heavy line infantry regiment, trained to an excruciating extent to fight and resist to the last man. Equipped with tactical armored exoskeletons, their mission is to withstand the worst of any combat. The Janissary Regiment is made up of the Orphaned, the Donated and the Delivered. Its members are recruited from Funduq orphanages and among children of non-Haqqislamites freely donated to the service of Haqqislam. The Government accepts these children to convert them to the one true faith and as a sign of their parents’ commitment and loyalty. In colonies located in some of the most inhospitable areas of Bourak, many dhimmi parents, followers of other religions, give one of their children away for them to have a better education in the city and, with it, better future prospects. Some of these kids are sent to high-performance training centers around Funduq, where they are educated in the Haqqislamite creed and the military life. Young Janissaries are raised into solid warriors and staunch believers who reject the faith of their biological parents, vowing instead to defend Haqqislam’s ideals to the death.

All Janissaries forgo Cubes: at the start of their training they are surgically outfitted with a temporary inhibitor that precludes any memory/personality recording. Upon being released from service, the inhibitor is removed and the former Janissaries can continue their lives as full Haqqislamite citizens. It is a way for them to prove their firm adherence to their ideals, and their commitment to a duty they will see through or die trying. They do not fear death, for their strength lies in their resolve and their faith. As disciples of Haqqislamite philosophy, some of them join advanced courses of Tebb al Nabi, the Prophet’s Medicine, and become excellent field surgeons, whose service is invaluable to the Sword of Allah. The exact same training and surgical process is applied to Orphans taken in by the State, and some say the Delivered also undergo the process. The Delivered are children of infidels captured by slave traders in their razzias. What slavers cannot sell in the private market, they sell to Haqqislam, who takes them in to save their lives and raise them into courageous warriors of the Faith.

Quotes

"This is a new world and it's full of dangers, but we'l fight them off together as we've always done; together and as they arise."
---Colonel Jalil Taghavi, 2nd JAnissaries Regiment, Resolve Base, Al-Hadiye, 1st NeoColonial War

"Evil moves swiftly when there is nobody to stop it. In darkness, evil thrives, thinking that Good slumbers. Slavers, scientists of the Siyah Sokak - our duty is to make them realize that even if all other authorities in the Sphere tolerate them, our vengeance never sleeps." --Lieutenant Laina Lalah, Janissary Corps. Master Class at the AO School in Medina.[1]
