[QUOTE="CleverName, post: 214215, member: 2591"] FYI Logos gave St. Stephen, the archangel archer, the dominion of air so that he could monitor the forces of Atavis and watch over the Church. His power over winds has made him a favorite of farmers and sailors — as both are concerned with favorable weather. Archangel Stephen is said to be able to calm storms as well as call them in Logo’s name. His raiment is of pale blue, silver and white and always carries an ivory bow with arrows made of lightning bolts. One of the few martial orders sponsored by the Domenicans, the Knights of St. Stephen are charged be vigilant for the forces of Atavis (devils and their cultists) and to help those plagued by foul weather, etc. Due to their connection with St. Domenica, the Knights are also pledged to aid the sick and healer-priests of the Domenican order. These Knights are sometimes called Stevelites, or Stephanites. The Knights of St. Steven are a small and poor order, often labeled mendicant knights by the nobility — although they are well thought of by the peasantry. (The martially inclined nobility certainly respect their skill with bows.) Some attach themselves to the way houses of the Knights of St. Domenica, others have been known to work with the Knights of St. Uriah (Knights of the Chalice). Some choose to wander the empire in search of the evil forces that assail the church and humanity. [/QUOTE]
