Elite Knight

Class Overview

The title of @Elite Knight is not earned through birthright or mere training, but through oaths, blood, and unquestionable service to one’s sovereign. These warriors stand as the physical embodiment of their kingdom’s power and ideals—whether it be @Highfrost iron discipline, @Durnarch savage might, @Marcaya gilded cunning, or @Maharlikha loyal innovation.

Lore

To be chosen as an @Elite Knight is to transcend the rank of ordinary soldiery. Each kingdom appoints only a handful, tested by campaigns, duels, and unwavering loyalty. Their armor is distinct, their banners carried with reverence, and their word seen as an extension of the monarch’s will.

@Highfrost : Elite Knights are the Frostbound Guard, drilled in relentless formations and clad in steel meant to weather the cold and the clash of war.

@Durnarch : Known as the Bloodforged, these knights wield oversized weapons and wear scarred armor, each piece a trophy from conquered foes.

@Marcaya : Called the Gilded Blades, they wear elegant yet deadly arms, serving as symbols of prestige as much as lethal enforcers of the queen’s schemes.

@Maharlikha : The youngest order, the Vanguard of the Rising Sun, are defined not by tradition but by vision—loyalists to Chocode, blending adaptability with iron devotion.

Requirements

Must swear fealty to a recognized sovereign (or their appointed general).

Must complete a campaign or feat that proves both valor and loyalty.

Promotion is not requested, but bestowed.

Role in the Realm

@Elite Knight command respect wherever they march. They are more than warriors; they are political symbols. Their presence can sway diplomacy, inspire armies, or strike fear into enemy lines. To see the crest of an Elite Knight across the battlefield is to know the kingdom itself is watching.
