Dragon Knights
Requires Level 3 Easterling Garrison
Strong vs. Monsters, Cavalry, and Heroes
The Dragon Knights are an order of Easterling warriors who travel the land and serving whichever warlord is willing to pay their considerable retainer. The final rite of passage a prospective Dragon Knight must endure is to travel high into distant mountains and seek out a hoarding fire-drake and retrieve a gemstone - whether through wit, strength, or flattery.
