Thousand Lances
More actions
The Thousand Lances are a knight-order from the nation of Kaaz.
Overview
The Thousand Lances is an ancient order,[1] and considered to be the greatest knight-order in the world. As the name implies, there are a thousand members, some of whom who were inducted from other orders like the Order of Seasons, or former Named Adventurers.[2] All members have high-quality enchanted equipment as standard gear.[3] The top 100 members are over Level 40, and many other members may be as well.[4] The highest-levelled members are part of the King's personal bodyguards.[5]
The noble families of Kaaz, dubbed the Lords and Ladies of the Lance, are responsible for members, ensuring that they want for nothing. Due to their prestige, they don't usually train [Squires], though some members choose to be mentors. There's an internal ranking in the order.[4]
The Thousand Lances maily keep peace in Terandria and are rarely called to war. In fact, other nations are incentivised to have their knights join the order so that other members do not act against them, to prevent infighting within the Thousand Lances between knights from warring kingdoms.[3]
