The Ceremony ok Spiked Chalice (WARNING: Still to be examined by founders)
- The ceremony must be held near a waterway, deep enough to allow the aspirant to immerse himself till the waistline. In the water, the aspirant have to recite the Credo, while the running water wash away his past: all his remorses, his wishes, his bad wills, his dreams of personal glory flow away with the current, and his soul has a rebirth, reaching a new state of self-consciousness and perseverance on his devotion.
- When the aspirant ends telling the Credo, he have to wash his face FIVE times, to celebrate the five martyrs (Iestyn the Wise, Tudyr the Brave, Rheinallt the Strong, Diniol the Just, Emyr the Kind) who sacrified their lives to open the eyes of the people toward the rising Chaos in the world.
- Done this, the aspirant come out from the waterway and kneel in front of the Grand Master, or his substitute, with all the Brothers surrounding him in a circle.

- When the chalice come back to the Grand Master, he repeat the act, wounding himself and filling the cup another bit. Then he gave it to the aspirant and says:
- "You are swearing on the blood of the Brotherood.
- Drink, and may Tyr bless your path, my Brother."
