Introduction:
|
| |
The Knight is a physical combatant. He or she is concerned with the study of physical prowess (weapons, melee, swordplay, endurance) rather than over the airy magical realms. Consider the Knight profession if you are fast, quick-witted or aggressive, but keen to keep simple and effective. They are strong in combat both offensively and defensively though rely on good maintenance of weapons, armour and equipment.
The Cavaliers Guild found their home in the city of Thakria after they split with the Knights. Cavaliers, while still maintaining their firm belief in the ideals of justice and honour in battle, adopt a more direct and dominating stance than their brothers in Mercinae. A Cavalier would rather rule well by decree than inefficiently by democracy. Thus, despite their similarities, the Cavaliers have not remained on friendly terms with the Knights Guild. Cavaliers consider Knights as weaker folk, dominated by the magic users. Cavaliers are renowned the world over for their resilience in battle and their strength of character. You should not consider joining their ranks unless you feel you are up to the challenge of standing head and shoulders above the crowd in open defiance of your enemies.

Words of Palin, first guildmaster:
|
| |
The Cavaliers are indomitable, honourable, aggressive, well-trained and focussed. They never surrender, they never offer quarter. The guild was founded to lead Thakria's expansion about the land.

Steppenwolfe (5yr), current guildmaster
says the following about the guild:
|
| |
Sole minded in their quest for greatness, they are at the forefront of the defense of the City of
Miracles and are the first line of assault upon the lesser cities. Impervious to pain, they have no
pity for fools who dare to halt their charge, dispatching of them with clinical ease.
Masters of mighty steeds, swordsmanship unsurpassed, the stalwart Cavalier's dominate Avalon through strength of arms and sheer infallible determination. Spurred on by the might of their patron Lady Xanthe, Goddess of Vengeance these hate-fuelled indomitable aggressors create fear wherever they pass and inspire dread wherever they approach.
If you have a loyal heart, a Thakrian mind, and a taste for blood spilt on your blade, seek out the Cavaliers for your new home.
