Order of the Lamp

The Order of the Lamp, sometimes called the "Lamp Knights," was an order of knights that acted as the protectors of the Mages Guild.

They were given appropriate rights to certain services of the Mages Guild. A knight's rank within the Order approximated the individual's rank within the Guild, in terms of rights and privileges. The Order only recruited those who had already demonstrated fighting skills and were in good standing with the Mages Guild. A contingent of the order was led by Vanus Galerion to confront Mannimarco and they participated in the resulting battle.
