The Holy Templar of Alenthyl

== Chapters ==
The Holy Templar are made up of a variety of sects, called Chapters, each led by their own Chapter leader who are somtimes given a seat upon the Grandmaster's council to represent that Chapter. The most notable are listed as follows:
=== The Radiant Conclave ===
The upper echelon of the Templar, the High Command. Includes the currently reigning Grandmaster Paramount, their chosen council, and a selected few Chapter leaders.
=== The Grey Clergy ===
Priests of the cloth who join the Templar and vow to a clerical life, donning grey robes. All Chapters are assigned at least one to act as a preacher and advisory to the leaders. Those who are not sent away as missionaries are chosen to join the Templar’s domestic research initiatives.
=== Le Croix Pateé Rouge, “The Templar” ===
The largest Chapter of the Order. Bearing the signature Red Cross of Saint François from which they take their name, they make up most of the Order’s ranks and fulfill a variety of duties across Alenthyl and even have footholds in a few other nations. 
They are the most well-known of the Chapters and act as the face of the Order. The Croix are filled with an assortment of soldiers, labourers, and craftsmen. Most members of the Templar begin here until they gain the experience needed to join another Chapter.
=== The Silver Legion ===
The steel fist of the Templar, the Silver Legion is composed of elite shock troopers who are chosen selectively from the Templar’s ranks based upon combat merit and conditioning.
=== Socora’s Hand ===
The Inquisition of the Order. A group of dedicated few who seek out corruption within and without the Templar, often traveling and working alone to further their goals.
=== The Scions of Saint Constantine, “The Blackwatch” ===
An ancient, elite, and zealous pack of trained paladins who pursue dark mages across Aevonhold and lock them away in their labyrinthian prison known as ‘The Tombs’. Colloquially known as ‘The Blackwatch’ due to the predominantly black-and-white color scheme emblazoned upon their uniforms.
=== The White Dawn ===
Established by Dame Gwyneviere Rhoswen of Novania, The White Dawn was a fledgling chapter of the Templar. Shortly after her mysterious death on the 17th of Deep Cold, 3E 1190, The White Dawn disbanded, leaving ties to The Holy Templar of Alenthyl in Novania without direction.
The White Dawn was a branch seeking establishment in the kingdom of Novania. Planned to become a missionary and faithful establishment operating out of Leighland Abbey dedicated to the training of new paladins and the safeguarding of Deurlyth from dark threats.
