Fighters

Fighters in the world-
Champions are celebrities. They are the daring heroes who are constantly in the public eye, competing for glory and fame amongst their peers. In battle they seek out honorable duels with those they deem their equal, calling out enemy leaders to face them man-on-man, especially when a bard is watching. Champions are likely to be in the service of sponsors who give them titles, land, and money in return for representing them or their house in tournaments and war. Most knights are Champions.

Battle Masters are the military leaders of the world, planning and executing battles between houses and against foes outside the kingdom. Some are behind the scenes and some prefer to be on the frontline, but they all coordinate others in the pursuit of victory.

Eldritch Knights are members of secretive and exclusive eldritch orders who seek to create the ultimate combat discipline. These orders usually do not align themselves within politics, preferring to seek the best students from the world and disregard borders. Those who seek to become Eldritch Knights will be pushed to the limits of martial and magical techniques.
The Order of the Emerald Inferno is the only known agency acting in the region of Longreach.
