 One of the oldest monastic orders, The Children of Geofon are widespread across the Western Shores, with small monasteries to be found wherever there is poverty and suffering. The Children devote their lives to helping the poor, providing minimal food and temporary accomodation for the most needy in society. One of the oldest monastic orders, The Children of Geofon are widespread across the Western Shores, with small monasteries to be found wherever there is poverty and suffering.

 The Eddas Skalds are the official historians and lorekeepers of the Western Shores' church. Another mixed order, the Skalds are quite a small sect, mostly centred around the great libraries they maintain in each capital city. Skalds also go on pilgrimage, attaching themselves to great leaders in times of war or invasion, in order to ensure that accurate records are kept. The Eddas Skalds are the official historians and lorekeepers of the Western Shores' church.

 The Shields are a unique martial order. For a start, they accept female members as well as male, and their best actual fighters are all female (Freyr's Shieldmaidens, a sub-group within the order). They also have no lay members, and their emphasis is on the art and science of warfare rather than the practice. (though Freyr's shieldmaidens are remarkably good at the practice) The Shields are a unique martial order.

 The Swords formed originally in Daria, though they have since spread across most of the Western Shores. Swords are quite distinct from Hammers on the field, with blue tabards and shields emblazoned with a white sword and Teiwaz rune (in black). The shields are very similar to the Hammers, though they lack a lot of the popularity the Hammers enjoy amongst commoners, and they tend to be far more responsive to direction by the Hand of Odin and Yggdrasil. The Swords formed originally in Daria, though they have since spread across most of the Western Shores.
