The nobility that does join often comprises young Knights who have nothing to their name, or those whose family’s fortune had long been lost. Even lowborn commoners are accepted into their ranks – a scandalous decision that significantly damaged the Legion’s popularity and reputation among the Banner Lords themselves. Still, Legionaries draw on the lore and traditions of old and seek to live a life of humble piety. Unlike the Templars and other servants of the Sacred Order, however, they do not forsake the vows of feudal fealty and continue serving the King of Kaerok. Much like Sacred Order that had in ages past been formed from Kaerokan Knights, the Legion is an Order of warriors dedicated to the service of Lumaya. However, some of these groups are gathered for genuine and honourable purposes, such as protecting the vast lands of Kaerok from various foes that threaten the King’s realm. It is said the Banner Lords of the Kingdom of Kaerok are very fond of creating societies and fraternities among their number it allows the nobles to distinguish themselves in the eyes of their peers, raises their social status – if the ‘secret’ society garners enough influence and prestige – and keeps bored Knights entertained.
