The Holy Order of St. Everard

The Palatine Guard

“The Holy Order of Saint Everard protecting the High Pontiff and the public during an execution.” 

The Holy Order of St. Everard was founded in the city of Vuillermoz during the month of Harren’s Folly in 1760. It was founded by Holy Ser Johan Vuiller on behalf of High Pontiff James II, Cardinal Bram, Cardinal Wilhelm, and Cardinal Rodrigo.

The Order is stationed in Vuillermoz and initially served as the city’s military. When Vuillermoz was named the Holy State, the Holy Order combined its forces with the Pious Brother of St. Peter and they became the official Palatine Guard.

The ranks of the order are Munifex - - > Footman - - > Avocati - - > Armiger - - > Legate - - > Supreme Legate - - > Holy Knight → Grand Master of the Holy Knights  & Lord Marshal → Knight Regent

As the order grew, Knight-Regent Johan found it necessary to appoint a second-in-command, and thus Philip de Beamont was consecrated as a Holy Knight and Lord Marshal. His dear friend Bjornolf Stjorn was also assigned to this task.

Not long after as the Order grow and people proved themselves both as skilled fighters but also to be pure in heart and true believers in the canonist church.

They were therefore given the rank of a Holy Knight and took their oath to serve the canonist church and its people.

The Oaths of the Holy Knights.

Do you swear to never falter, to obey and guard the laws of GOD, who is the one true Creator?

Do you swear to be the sword and shield of the Church of the Canon and her faithful, to fight for them when they cannot protect themselves?

Do you swear to resist the temptations of Iblees and strike down those who have fallen under his dark rule?

Finally, do you swear to keep your post as Holy Knight until death takes you from this realm into the next?

Then rise [Name] and join your brothers as Holy Ser [Name and Epithet]. You are a Holy Knight under this land and all the lands of the Church of the Canon, sworn to protect the people of the Canonist faith.

You shall be fair and just, defending the innocent no matter their rank, beggar and bishop alike.

Each Holy Knight is also to take a acolyte under their wing and train them and prepare them to one day become Holy Knights.
