Difference between revisions of "House of the Templars"

'''The Guardians of Light''', formerly the [[Paladins guild|Paladins Guild]], make their home in the [[Chrysalis Basilica]]. The strong arm of the Holy [[Church]] of Achaea, their ways are mostly martial and they require at least some basic skills in combat from their members before they allow them to advance.

The Guardians have a long and rich history. Originally the '''Templars''', founded by Sir Gawain in the year 174 AF, they wielded [[bladefire]] with such strength and power that it was eventually taken away by the will of the [[Logos]], citing that such a power had proven much too powerful for mortal hands. The Templars recieved [[forging]] as a replacement and were now able to make their own [[weapons]] and [[armour]].  

The Guardians were previously composed of those of the Paladin class only. However, with the growth of [[Houses]] in the realms, Sir Lereas Sparrow opened the House to those of all non-conflicting classes on the 20th of Scarlatan, 395 AF, so that those who wished to fight for the Light could do so less alienated and as part of a closer community.

Their current [[tutor]] is [[Talarna|Lady Talarna]], who replaced [[Syvelium]]. Syvelium was lost during the incursion of [[Varian|The Other]] into Achaea.

Their house [[icon]], the '''Dragon Sceptre''', has fallen.
