Order of the Horse

The Order of the Horse is a knightly order within the Kingdom of Almeron. Highly decorated, its members are renowned cavalrymen who almost never tire and were practically born in the saddle. This expertise from horseback is what brings fame to the Order of the Horse, each man and woman within its ranks respected for their talent. Knights of the Horse form strong bonds with their steed and each is given a unique name. The death of a Knight's steed is considered as tragic as the death of the Knight themselves, and to desert one's companion or even their corpse in battle is seen as unacceptable. The Knight's talents make them exceptionally useful in battle, though they are more prudent than most in battle and will not risk the lives of their steeds needlessly. This ensures they are not foolhardy by any means, but rather cautious in where and how they strike.

They are identifiable by the unique, largely ceremonial spurs on their greaves.
