Okay, I need to get to sleep. Looks like I failed to meet my quota for the Blademaster. We'll see if I can succeed tomorrow at catching up on all the grading + revising the paper. I bet I can squeeze in the Blademaster tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy this teaser of the Knight:
The Knight has seven aspects of Knightly honour, but not every Knight follows each aspects equally. Each Knight will eventually gain powers from five of the aspects, though many Knights follow all seven. Each Knight has one primary aspect (her first aspect) which helps determine what she considers most important in a moral dilemma between various aspects of honour, and Knights gain unique abilities in their primary aspect that no other Knights can gain. A Knight may choose to have a Heroic Flaw, which means they ignore one aspect of honour, giving a reasonable explanation for it (e.g. the gruff knight with no time for Courtesy, the pragmatist with no place for Piety, etc). This aspect of honour acts as if it does not exist, so she cannot be penalised for ignoring it, and it will not affect her average honour score. A Knight may choose a second aspect of honour to ignore, but in this case it is a Notorious Flaw--unlike the Heroic Flaw, failures of the Notorious Flaw are penalised as normal, but the Notorious Flaw never counts lower than 0 for the purposes of average honour, even if it goes negative. Needless to say, the Knight who chooses to take advantage of these flaws will choose the aspects that aren't among the five keyed to abilities she plans on gaining.
The names of the types of Knight and their key honour aspect are as follows:
Loyalty--Royal Knight
Justice--Knight Justiciar
Charity--Knight Hospitaler
Defense--Knight Protector
Courage--Knight Champion
Courtesy--Courtly Gallant
Piety---Knight Paladin
