Re: Knights


I'm not really into the idea of "Evil" knights, but your proposal for the structure of the group looks pretty feasible. Mandating potential entrants to perform herald duties is a great way to promote volunteer work as well.

What about uniforms/sashes/garb?

Re: Knights


I'm seeing a potential problem this squire task for the first unit members. Who would squire under whom, and who decides? If you're not actually a knight until you join, then technically there wouldn't be any knights to squire under to start off with.

Re: Knights


You would set up a tournament for the first knight/knights.

The tournament would most likely take place at Ragnarok, and have challenges every day. These challenges would include combat, RP, Service, and Garb challenges. (or you could have challenges at certain eryndor events culminating at Ragnarok)

Anyone who wanted to become a knight could participate. (you could have requirements like, anyone with Eryndor Fighter Rank only.)

The Tournament could either be by elimination or each candidate would have to complete certain challenges. Whoever completes all the challenges Honorably becomes the first knight for which to squire under.

Re: Knights


I would say garb is based on who you are squiring under. The first knights would have to develop this.

I would suggest that for someone to be eligible to participate in the knight tournaments that they have a developed Kit. This Kit would include the following...


1. Proper heraldry - A Tabard the Knight wears and a Shield that bears their personal symbol & Colors. Also, a banner with proper colors and symbol at least 2.5 feet by 2.5 feet.
3. Well Made Dag weapons that fit their chosen styles, (minimum of 3?)
4. Garb that goes beyond minimum requirements and fits their chosen persona. Adheres to teh 10 feet rule. (looks "period" from ten feet away.
5. Service: Have served as a herald at least X times, Qualified as a Weapon tester at Ragnarok.
6. Armor: have armor that fits their persona well (if not extremely well)
7. Camp Gear: Have Feast wear & other camping gear that fits your persona. (Tents optional)
8. Have developed backstory that would show your climb to knighthood.



A cool name for this if it had good neutral and evil knights would be the Tribunal. ;p
