Knight Errant Conclave (5e Subclass)

Knight Errant Conclave

Ranger Conclave

Toussaint Knight-Errant by Marta Dettlaff

Wandering trough the world, riding a horse and clad in armor, the figure of a errant knight is a popular one in myths and legends. There are many tales of these wandering warriors, devoted to protect the innocent, rescue princess from high towers, and risking their lives to face powerful witches and wrathful dragons. Rangers who join the conclave of the errant knights sworn a vow to protect their realms from the threats imposed by monsters of all natures - including those who enact villainy in mundane manners, such as ravaging hordes of barbarians, tyrants and corrupt nobleman.

Errant knights follow a strict code of honor, and value truthfulness, honesty and courage above all things. They are often mistaken as paladins, due to their strict moral code and fearless nature, but they resort to honed instincts and careful research and training on the beasts they oppose, instead of using devotion as the source of their strength. Fortress devoted to the training of errant knights often double as libraries and schools, devoted to teach both morals, the art of war and the details on the monsters behavior, weaknesses and powers.

Some of them are religious, although this is hardly a hard requirement, but it is not uncommon that those rangers bear the symbols of gods of heroism and goodness, such as Heirouneous and Kord. The devotion to Bahamut is also very common, and some say that this ranger conclave was first created by a priest of the Platinum Dragon, a silver dragon disguised as a human, who first created this conclave specifically to protect villages tormented by chromatic dragons. Others follow a more secular devotion, motivated by a sense of duty towards their realms or their conclave.
