Chivalric Order

There are many individuals and organizations associated with knights and knighthood, but the Chivalric Order claims to be the knightly order across all existence. They are a league of True Knights, people dedicated to upholding and maintaining the chivalric traditions of historical knighthood.
Membership in the Chivalric Order is not exclusive. The True Knights actually encourage membership in other Chapters associated with historical knighthood (Knights Templar, Knights of the Round, Eagles of the North, etc.).
== Facts: ==
-The Chivalric Order is open to Adepts who can prove themselves in trials designed to test their fighting ability, their cunning, and their honor. And their knowledge of the history of knighthood.
-The Chivalric Order is an elite Chapter of professional fighters. They are very popular with the Order of Warriors and other Military Orders. Adepts who complete the trials and are accepted will be awarded respect by the Military Orders.
-The Ecclesiastical Orders will also look upon a member of the Chivalric Order with respect too. Remember that the medieval Church had as much a hand in the development of knighthood as any king or noble! 
-Membership in the Chivalric Order often brings with it certain symbols of station and honor, especially in the form of a personal crest and usually something like a special ring, garter, etc. And swords, don't forget specially made swords!
-You can find the Chivalric Orders in several places, some of which are quite surprising. They are popular among professional military types, noble families, dedicated history buffs, weapons enthusiasts and even historical reenactors (Renaissance Faires are a good place to find some of them too).
== Modern Day Knights: ==
While the idea of knights might seem outdated in the age of the gun and other long-range firearms, the Chivalric Order does believe in adapting to changing times. Modern members of the Chivalric Order are expected to be competent with sword, shield and other 'traditional' weapons.
But they are also expected to be fully competent with modern weapons, especially if they come from professional military or paramilitary backgrounds.
Remember, it isn't the swords, armor and shield that truly make a knight. It's adherence to the Chivalric Code.
