The Zodiac Knights were knights sworn to Chronos. Trained on Earth to assist in the holding of the Surrounding, they swore to monuments on Zodiac outposts, the Zodiac Castle, or the Surrounding itself. They were charged with the protection of Sol System, in partnership with the Zodiac Guard, who were their equals. The powers granted by their Wonders related to growth, change and protection; their uniforms tended to resemble Eastern-European or Turkish monks in shades of white, rose-gold, pink or green.
The Knights originated from Earth, but were all descendants of Zodiac populations; they were sent essentially as both tribute and support. Earth did not take in any of the Zodiac's disenfranchised people, but they contributed to the defense of the Surrounding by providing extra manpower. Knights who went to the Surrounding tended to be more pious than most knights, due to the Surrounding's status as a religious pilgrimage; they went into their assignments knowing that they would have hard battles to fight, with a smaller society than most knights, and only a small chance to go home unless an assignment brought them back to Earth. The cultures and morals of the society which these knights found themselves in depended heavily upon the Outpost to which they were assigned.
Zodiac Knights were established at the same time as the Surrounding, meaning that there were three generations of them before the end of the Silver Millennium. Unlike their senshi counterparts, Zodiac Knights do not get an instant memory download from their past life; if they are reincarnations of the Knight who served in the Silver Millennium, they must hunt down their memories just as any other Knight-reincarnated must!
Monuments for Zodiac Knights could be on any of the outposts or out in the Surrounding proper! Their names should be something to do with barriers or guardians or something. Here are some lists of good names:
Roman Portae
Specific examples: Midgard Knight, Hadrian Knight
