''' | '''House of the Templars''', formerly known as the Paladins Guild and the Guardians of Light, 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 are devoted to the ideals of Good, Light, Righteousness and Valour, as well as the tenets of Honour, Chivalry, and Service. | ||

In recent times, Lady Nakoruru Ruadhain reduced admittance to 'Knight' Classes only, with only those of the Paladin or Runewarden Class being allowed to join. Returning to their ancient roots the House once again changed it's name and became the House of the Templars. | ||
