Order of the Tower

The Order of the Tower is a knightly order within the Kingdom of Almeron, dedicated to the art of defense and the merits of an unbreakable will. Knights of the Tower must be strong and valiant, unmovable in both purpose and combat. They spend their days making themselves stronger and mentally preparing themself for the rigors of war, making even the unscarred of their ranks the equals of veterans. They are one of the few knightly orders to serve fully within the nation's standing army, their men dedicated only to valiant defense in the name of the Kingdom. When in battle the Knights of the Tower fight on foot, armed with polehammers and tower shields that make them an impenetrable bastion. They are an invaluable asset in any siege or when a line must be held, sought after by Almeronian generals who need the line held no matter what. Their strict dedication has earned them much international praise, their service as a rearguard during many battles of the Six Years' War saving countless lives at the cost of their own.
