Paladin Orders
Helios is home to many orders of Paladins, but there are three major orders that stand out among the rest.
 * Order of the Sun
 * The Order of Pelor, often charged with protecting the city and serving as questing knights and ambassadors to other nations. Rarely to Order of the Sun knights travel to the wall to wage war
 * Order of the Blade
 * The order associated with Heironeous. They are the chief order of trained fighters and knights who go to the wall, they are some of the best trained and best armed fighters in all of the world. Their diety favors the bold and the strong and this order is full of individuals who are both.
 * Knights of Charity
 * The Knights of Charity are actually closer to police than knights, as they primarily focus on church offenses and rooting our cults and heretics. The Knights of Charity are trained exclusively in the cloister of the Grand Church of Helios. They often are indoctrinated very young to the church. Knights of Charity function almost outside of the law and are rarely trusted.
