Nasaru

Nasaru: Guard - elite bodyguards who are assigned to important, high profiled deities.

One can be named to test their value in the fierce competition to become a Nasaru, or one can name himself. Usually candidates who are sponsored by nations have a far better chance of succeeding in the course. Out of 37 Nasaru’s, only four have managed to succeed as unsponsored individuals. Despite popular belief, one does not need to belong to a military force to apply for the position. In essence, anyone can become a Nasaru, as long as he or she proves himself worthy in the eyes of gods and the World Tree.
