The Challenges of Narnia

To reach the rank of Knight a member must complete seven tasks. Each of the tasks is based around one of the seven books of the Chronicles of Narnia. Tasks do not need to be completed in order. When a member wishes to attempt a challenge they must contact the High Commander and let them know of the attempt. The High Commander will make sure the challenge meets the spirit of the task and inform the member how to document the task. When the member has completed the challenge they should bring documentation to the High Commander, and the Council of Knights will vote on the success of the task.

To achieve the order of The Magician’s Nephew the member must perform a selfless act that benefits Narnia, Dagorhir or the community.

To expand on this the member is allowed to contribute by helping the community. They could help at a shelter, clean up parks, and so on. Donating money to the group or to a charity does not count towards this order.

The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe:

This is achieved by helping new members make contact with units, guidance in attending events, answering questions, etc. The member does not lose credit for this challenge if the prospective member(s) fail to stay with Dagorhir. The spirit is the attempt to gain members only.

The Silver Chair:

To achieve the order of The Silver Chair the member must actively assist in an official demo in the name of Dagorhir. Simply showing up and fighting does not count!

Organizing and running a demo is the best example of how to achieve this order.

The Last Battle:

To achieve the order of The Last Battle the member must attend and fight at Ragnarok. The spirit of this challenge is that the member should fight in as many battles as possible! If the member fought at Ragnarok prior to joining Narnia they must attend again!
