Ordo Gloriosus Sol
From Wessexwiki
The Ordo Gloriosus Sol is one of the major Ordos of The Holy Orders of the Hyperion's Church. Meaning Order of the Glorious Sun in its literal translation from Old Riadan, the Ordo Gloriosus Sol is tasked with the most dangerous responsibility of investigating and destroying the physical manifestations of Darkness throughout the Hyperion Domain.
The members of the Ordo Gloriosus Sol are the greatest men and women of the age - able to stare into the Twilight Empire and know their foe without succumbing to madness and heresy.
They shall be My Sword, the sword in My hand, the gauntlet about My fist, the bane of My foes and woes of the treacherous. When no others may stand beside them, they shall fight. Only the greatest shall enter their ranks, for unto them do I entrust stewardship over the Gates of the Shadelands.
Military Forces
The armies of the Ordo Gloriosus Sol are extremely small, as only a precious few number of individuals can be trusted with the full knowledge of Darkness. Strike forces are largely comprised of the Bishop himself, a retinue, and as many Church Knights as can be spared.
In battle, the greatest advantage rests upon the specialized and consecrated weaponry of the Ordo Gloriosus Sol, the Lightbringer. The greatest Aurans ever born, trained and taught to fight, they alone bear the full knowledge of Darkness and the multitude of evil besieging the Hyperion Kingdom. The most powerful force the Bishop of Wessex might deploy. Only the words of a Sol Grandmaster carries enough authority to unleash them, for the life of a Justicar is an infinitely precious resource.
Issued with the best equipment in the Kingdom, the Justicars are called upon to face the Prince of Greed in holy combat - with the souls of all Hyperion servants as the victor's prize. The faith of Justicars, coiled around their powerful divine talents, is so pure as to be is repellent and blinding. Armed with thrice-blessed Lightbringers, there is very little a Justicar cannot achieve.
