The Order of the Moon

The Order of the Moon, an organization in the service of Moonspear, are warriors dedicated to the extermination of vampires, devils, demons and other fiends. They are all master fighters and powerful mages that are trained to destroy these powerful creatures, and as a result they have developed a few spells to help their cause. One of their most famous spells lets them make moonlight and starlight as deadly to fiends as the rays of the sun.

The knights all have their weapons blessed and forged in the sacred spring water at the Shaith Temple. This makes the weapons dangerous to any creature of the hells. They call Rillaria their home, but they trek out to many lands to see their missions through.

Most of the warriors have a very strong, almost religious devotion to the Order and each other.

Recruiting

New recruits are taken in between the ages of ten and sixteen, though recruiters generally try to get them as young as possible. All recruits must posses strong magic, and members that have powers useful against demons and undead are highly sought after. All members are sword and spear trained, though it's not uncommon for them to study more exotic weapons as well.

The knights are often hired through the High Lord of Moonspear to take care of monsters that plague villages or cities. The Order of the Moon is known for its lack of mercy to demons and undead, though they are always careful to minimize innocent casualties. Their first priority is protecting the lives of innocents and after that is the extermination of the demons.

Style

It is customary for members to keep their necks covered, often with thick leather collars, so as to protect them from bites. Most of them, regardless of gender, wear pants. All knights wear the symbol of their order somewhere on them, as can be seen here.
