The Dragoon Knights are a knightly order headquartered in Yitur, the capital city of Wemther. It is said that Bendash himself instructed the first knights on his legendary battle tactics and on the companionship of dragons. The knights revere Bendash and follow his teachings. The officers of the order ride bravely into battle on dragons and learn to use esoteric fighting skills.
There is a tale told throughout the realms that goes like this:
- Wherever there is danger untold
- or evils too vile to behold,
- there they fight with valor
- the Dragoons of divine power.
The group was founded 500 years ago by its current leader, Relahnia Dragonblood.
History
Relahnia founded the order after a vision involving Bendash. As she relays the story, Bendash had to gather a force that could oppose the growing power of his evil sister Deniss. As Deniss began to exert more of her power in the world, Bendash saw fit to keep balance maintained with a force of his own. Resultantly, with the aid of a small number of dragons who either served with Bendash or were their descendants, Relahnia gathered an offensive of brave and talented soldiers soldiers and all were instructed by the dragons.
