Would you be comfortable allowing a person you have never met to manage your accounts? Roar! can only comment, saying that such practices seem very suspicious. They undergo a “background†check: “freshers can only be considered for Nos Tuendorum if they have attended Public School, Independent School or a top UK Grammar School.†Each member can then submit up to five nominations, with clear knowledge that these are picked through sports and societies, from known members in rowing and hockey, as well as the political societies at King’s.Īlthough there is no membership fee for the society, there is a sole accountant for each year group, who ensures the members pay for their meals and drinks. When Roar! acquired a copy of the Nos Tuendorum handbook, it held some controversial knowledge on how the freshers are picked. It involves the Speaker at a meeting starting the chant of “hang them, hang them†and the criminal being forced to down a pint whilst being held upside down. He explained to Roar! what would happen if his identity was revealed, stating that he would receive “a hangingâ€, which is known in Nos Tuendorum as the most extreme form of punishment.
He then revealed how it was important that he had to travel there alone to gain the next information on his future tasks. He described how the society were already privy to his personal details and invited him to a central London park in the middle of the night so that he could retrieve a letter. One member, who wanted to remain anonymous, spoke of his first encounter with the society. The potential members are put through these long-winded games in order to be allowed into the society. These situations have been met with shock whilst resembling scenes from The Da Vinci Code. Once there, he then had to climb “The Tower of All Hallows Stainingâ€. He claimed that at one such stage, a note was left telling the candidate to “remove your underwear, attach your name tag to your underwear using the pin provided and place in a container†and to make sure this was done “immediately… without entering a building or drawing attention to yourself.†These peculiar tasks are monitored by one of the current members at locations that have appeared as highly inventive, with one member having to travel to a church on Mark Lane.

Speaking exclusively to Roar!, he revealed that the invitee has to complete four stages of a ‘human monopoly board’ with success granting him full membership. The source (who we have chosen to keep anonymous) has consequently revealed to Roar! the bizarre tasks that invitees have to carry out in order to become part of the Nos Tuendorum club. We also managed to acquire an invitation into the heavily hidden “elite men’s dining societyâ€, named Nos Tuendorum, which translates as “We will keep you safeâ€.
