~The Founding Story~ The Beginning
As a child groomed by both mother and father to be a great leader, his father taught him tolerance and knighthood, while his mother having fallen from a strange place taught him of the right to rule a great herd one day. He was born to a mystic herd. Both his parents had great expectations and he refused to disappoint either of them.
Lost one day he met Keira a witch of sorts who lived in the forests nearby. She saw great potential in him, and lead him home instead of letting him remained lost. Some time latter finding the mare again to thank her, he spoke to her of his ideas for a herd. Keira spoke to him in return of a stallion that could guide the colt to a homeland he sought. He offered her to come with him as his councilor.
She accepted, and the journey began to find the stallion who could guide them to this fertile land.
The Journey
(WIP)
The Arrival and Foundation
(WIP)
~Territory~
The herd would have a large expanse of land containing most types of terrain in a temperate zone, forests, lakes, rivers, mountains. the lands are beautiful and plentiful with the resources to support a large and continually growing herd. Magic is thick in this location, though no one is sure quite as to why. Protected by the knights each knight would be assigned his or her own domain to protect and the people living in that area would also be under their protection. It is a poor knight who protects the land over its inhabitants.

~Culture~ Knight's Code
A knight was expected to have not only the strength and skills to face combat in the violent Middle Ages but was also expected to temper this aggressive side of a knight with a chivalrous side to his nature. There was not an authentic Knights Code of Chivalry as such - it was a moral system which went beyond rules of combat and introduced the concept of Chivalrous conduct - qualities idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward mares.
The Knights Code of Chivalry and the vows of Knighthood
The Knights Code of Chivalry described in the Song of Roland and an excellent representation of the Knights Codes of Chivalry are as follows:
To serve the liege lord in valor and faith
To protect the weak and defenseless
To give succor to widows and orphans
To refrain from the wanton giving of offence
To live by honor and for glory
To despise pecuniary reward
To fight for the welfare of all
To obey those placed in authority
To guard the honor of fellow knights
To eschew unfairness, meanness and deceit
To keep faith
At all times to speak the truth
To persevere to the end in any enterprise begun
To respect the honour of Mares
Never to refuse a challenge from an equal
Never to turn the back upon a foe
Of the seventeen entries in the Knights Codes of Chivalry, according to the Song of Roland, at least 12 relate to acts of chivalry as opposed to combat.~Traditions~ Knighthood - Every time a new knight is sworn in there is a grandiose ceremony in which the herd participates.
Right of Passage - Young Pages and squires go through rights of passages as they grow and advance to the next rank. There is a celebration when a page becomes a Squire and a squire to a knight
Tournaments - The kind had the idea with other herds and within the herd itself to hold tournaments of sort to unite all the herds even the distant ones.
Celtic Style Bardic Traditions - these are actually far more influential than Christianity at this time and so have more weight within the culture of the herd.
