Order of the Broken Lance

The Order of the Broken Lance is a secular order of knights. The original Fairshire Lancers spent their final glorious moments in unrelenting assault upon the Horde at Arathi Highlands, suffering grievous losses including the entire regimental officer corps. Those survivors were inducted into a new order upon their return home in honor of their sacrifice. Members of the order are therefore known for their fearless frontal charges against impossible odds. Their heraldry is a sanguine broken lance upon a sable field, and members often tie red strips of cloth to their lances sewn with the names of fallen brethren before they ride into battle. Order membership is by invitation only, and they do not willingly share what qualifications are sought.

Lord Raymon de Saul is the current Grandmaster of the Order of the Broken Lance. When the officer corps perished and the Fairshire Lancers began to waver at Arathi, Sir Raymon raised the fallen banner and held it high to ride at the enemy one last time. With his brothers alongside, he lead the Lancers to victory through twenty-two more grueling charges. For his peerless bravery and leadership, he was unanimously elected to Grandmaster and raised to lordship.
