Knights of Magilone

The very first Knights of Magilone were born as rams but were later turned into men by the god Veldex to fight against Phykrell and his allies towards the end of the Second War of Fate.

They were one hundred in number and Magilone was the bravest of them all. Each wore an Amulet of Veldex which gave him powers that no man was ever been born with. These amulets were passed down from one generation to the next: they choose their own bearers from people of all races and backgrounds, and anyone chosen by one of the amulets was destined to become a Knight of Magilone. The Order of Magilone also included many other knights who followed the code of the order without bearing one of the amulets.

The Knights of Magilone had many enemies, but they were particularly hated by the followers of Phykrell and of Tilsman. Under pressure from the Church of the Shroud, they were outlawed in Greystone many years ago by the Rickheart ruling dynasty and were subsequently forced into hiding. The knights became very active in the resistance against the Church of the Shroud. They moved their headquarters to the Temple of Veldex in the halfling village of Hapamet in the Witchwood where they were welcomed with open arms.

Taking advantage of the civil war within the Church of the Shroud, the knights re-established themselves openly and had a large outpost near Falgoon Gap and fought a difficult campaign against the trolls of Murkbriar; many members of the Yeoman's Auxiliary were once footsoldiers in their armies.

The Order of Magilone was the toughest of all professional guilds to join and prospective candidates must have spent at least four seasons as a paladin.
