Golden Lions
The Order of the Golden Lions was founded over a century ago. Originally founded by a Knight of Valor to protect healers who could not otherwise protect themselves, they caught the eye of the old king and were elevated to a proper Military Order.
They are specially trained to combat the Undead and are a mixed unit of Heavy & Light Infantry of exceptional valor and bravery.
The Golden Lions are known to inspire bravery in the common people. Be it the old heavily armored traditional guard or the newer members who are flashier and sometimes called swashbucklers.
To be a Golden Lion is to be brave in the face of any danger, to be first on the front lines, and to be the last out of any situation. They are well known for taking on missions that others simply would have to refuse.
The Golden Lions have had a member of their order hold the position of Lord General for over 100 years, and it is a certainty the next Lord General will come for their ranks as well.
