Order of the Dragons Flame:
Colors - Blue and White
Symbol - Dragon breathing fire
Kings Charter - the order was founded at the request of Kristof and High King Andrell by the Companions Jotham and Courtney to provide the Temples of Rama and the Sisters of Life a formal means of protection.
Although initially funded from the coffers of Andrell, the order is entirely self supporting now, relying on it's members, private contributions and an unknown source of wealth controlled by the head of the order.
The Ways of the Order
Within the order itself are two different philosophies that work well together in accomplishing the King's Charter. Both ways follow the teachings of Rama, and members of both ways live together, eat together and worship together. All of the order are known as Brothers (no matter man or woman), and addressed as “Brother Knight” or “Brother Monk”
The Way of the Dragon
Jotham’s branch of the order, those of this way are known as “Knights”. They are usually in full armor and many are trained as heavy cavalry, complete with lances. Like a dragon, their way emphasizes ceremony and strength. They are responsible for the security of the Raman Temples and the order's monasteries.
The Way of the Flame
Courtney’s branch of the order, those of this way are known as “Monks”. As fully trained in combat techniques as those of the Dragon, their way shuns armor, preferring stealth and speed in combat. Like the flame, their way strives to be untouchable and yet, still burn. Because they don't carry the full regalia of armor and weapons that the Dragon's do, they are the preferred bodyguards of the Sisters of Life.
