The Duchal Army of Virovenes Elite(DAVE)

Created by the Ruler of Virovene, Kaiser Cato De La Fere, after Virovene's secession from Springdale, DAVE is a reincarnation of Springdale/Duchal Army of Muspelheims Elite or DAME. It is Virovene's only army, and as Virovene is only a small realm, it is more then enough protection the realm needs.

A notable feature of DAVE is the DAVE Strike-Force (D-SF). Considered an elite wing of DAVE, it never has more then 4 members, including the D-SF Commander. Under the command of the Vice-Marshal , D-SF allows far more flexability, allowing a few select nobles to split from the main army and complete orders for which a mesure of independence is required.

(All Awards earned whilst a noble was a member of DAME are carried over to DAVE)
