Very true.

Assuming I haven't misread the political situation, a large part of their day to day operations might involve fending off raids from neighboring kingdoms - those were quite common back in le medieval era.

Not quiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite how knighthood worked back then, but that's fair enough.

Obvs up to GM to decide, just figured I'd help a little.

And depends on what you consider wrong :P
@AtomicNut

Don't think thees and thous are required, thankfully, I just figured I'd mention it in case if you do decide to work out how and why a talented slacker would go about getting knighted.

And I wasn't actually wondering, no need to be so snippy, just trying to help >.>
@AtomicNut

You might want to read some of the Ooc, friend. Generally speaking, your character should be a knight - obviously with exceptions such as in my case.
@knighthawk

Actually, a rapier would have a considerably longer blade than that first one there, it's a weapon designed for maximum reach and thrusting, that there looks more like a sidesword. Terminology nitpick, sorry.

As to which one to choose, I would say that having a longsword that grows would make much more sense - the rapier isn't a battlefield weapon, and it uses a style of fighting that would differ massively from that of a standard european arming sword.
@VitaVitaAR

A'ight then, fair enough.
@VitaVitaAR

I was wondering about that myself.

Could I have a little more info on gender in the world and whatnot, if that's okay?

Was talking with Merlin and he said he'd be willing to have Garrett take her on as a part of his personal entourage.

Thanks! I'll get started on a CS.

Hi, uh, sorry it took me this long to get back.

Um... avoiding that previous shitstorm, I was wondering if it would be possible for mercenary lady to join the order not as a full knight, but as a retainer of sorts to another knight? Part of a personal entourage, perhaps? Knightly orders historically wouldn't have been 100% full knights, there's a lot of support network required and such - and that's where she would come in. Instead of charging valiantly into battle to slay great foes, she's simply part of the personal guard of one of the knights of the order or somesuch - or simply a woman-at-arms kept around as extra muscle? Or, alternatively, would it perhaps be possible for her to be a "squire" or somesuch to a full knight, however reluctantly?

I can't think of how she would've earned knighthood, unfortunately, but it might be interesting to show the interactions between someone from the lower social order with those of the full knighthood?

Dunno really, but if you have any suggestions or feedback on the idea I'd be glad to listen!
