The cavalier tradition stems originally from the Myrrish, and has since spread all over the world. The arvek took it swiftly into their own ranks, favoring flavors of the Knights of Peace or the Lost Crown, and the oruch the Cockitrace, among others. Cavalier orders are not exclusive to cavaliers alone. An established order features a number of members, from bards to record deeds of heroism to priests of appropriate faiths to tend wounds and offer guidance and wisdom. Cavaliers will also strike out on their own frequently, particularly some orders, in an effort to spread good deeds and heroism. Others are in service to various, minor nobility, and the "roving sons" of places such as Selentia are near infamous.

Below are founding orders of the Cavalier. All of these are available for play. If your character is not from Myrddion, likely he or she is from a smaller, spinoff tradition, which is left for you to define its details. The only things we require is that the the edicts must remain the same, and not to use the PRD names. This is because we want to avoid roleplay confusion from: the oruch Glaive-Reaver clan's Order of the Lion, and the arvek nar's Blar-based Order of the Lion, etc.
