recruit, campaign, gather (contributions), enlist, grow violent

Mnemonic

A massive sunflower towers in the village square, serving as a beacon to recruit warriors. Only those with raw power—who can rip the sunflower from the earth and hoist it overhead—prove worthy. Each new recruit marches off carrying a golden petal as proof of strength.
Additional thoughts
Imagine the sunflower as both a recruiting poster and a strength test. Uprooting it is the entrance exam. Golden petals become badges of acceptance for every new warrior enlisted.
Quick recall
Rip the sunflower from the ground with brute power to be recruited.
