Knights Mariner

The Knights Mariner is an order of templar-marines based in Marienburg, where they both guard the high temple, and protect the city and its fleets. The knights are controlled by the matriarch, through the grand master. The Knights Mariner are highly trained marines and sailors, and maintain their own sizeable fleet of warships which they use to keep the surrounding seas free from pirates and other raiders. The knights are also hired out—for a tithe—to other vessels, either sailing onboard these ships or escorting them using their own. Although they do have a few chapterhouses elsewhere in the Old World—mainly used as harbours for their ships—other nations are somewhat reluctant to make use of their services, for risk of becoming indebted or reliant on the knights, and by association, Marienburg.
