(Purple Dragon) Knight: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 02:55, 7 November 2017

The Knight is a paragon of martial discipline. Inspiring those around her and using her superior knowledge of tactics and strategy, she masters the battlefield.

Knightly Traditions

There are three traditions of Knight, that focus on different aspects of the class. You will be asked to select your Tradition shortly after taking your first level in Knight.

Knight Vanguard. The Knight Vanguard is the scourge of his enemies, scattering all before her.
Knight Protector. The Knight Protector is the defender of the weak, and stalwart comrade-at-arms.
Knight Valiant. The Knight Valiant inspires all around her to feats of heroism.

The Tradition of your Order will determine which Knightly abilities improve.
