“There will come a day when you are the only thing standing between that which you cherish and total annihilation. I am here to break you, tear you down, crush you. So that when that day comes, you will be strong enough to shoulder such a burden.”
~ Tykan DeMal, Croix Noire Master-at-Arms
Cavaliers stand to defend the vulnerable, relying on their durability and skill with shields and armor to outlast their enemies. A Cavalier is a fierce protector more than capable of guarding their allies against harm. The trademarks of the Cavalier include deflecting Ranged Attacks, providing cover for nearby comrades, and forging a bond with a valiant Steed. A Cavalier often chooses to wrap themselves in a noble cause, typically as a town sentry, a brave knight, or a dedicated bodyguard. Cavaliers can be enduring, convincing, and protective companions, making them gravitate toward leadership roles in Companies.
Guard
A Cavalier is driven to safeguard their allies from danger and harm. The Cavalier carefully studies their opponents, seeking ways to thwart their offensive efforts and mitigate the impact of any potential threats. They accomplish this by steeling themselves against specific types of Damage, bolstering the defenses of their allies, or placing themselves directly in harm's way. The Cavalier is staunch and unmovable against the tides of fate. They stand as a bulwark to shield their more fragile Company members from the intense pressures of the world. The Cavalier is often the backbone of a group, taking the initiative to ensure everyone they care about makes it out alive. Losses weigh heavily in their hearts.
Glory
Just as they are physically unshakable, so too is the spirit of a Cavalier controlled and collected. The Cavalier is fueled by more than the will to survive. Cavaliers live to adorn themselves in the glory of righteousness. Natural commanders, the Cavalier rallies their allies to decisive action in the pursuit of victory. They are skilled at controlling the flow of the battlefield and maneuvering into superior tactical positioning, even while under heavy fire. At the core of every Cavalier is the urge to deliver kindness unto the world, service enshrined as a guardian of the vulnerable or punisher of the wicked.

From Cavalier Rank One (1), the Cavalier can utilize an equipped Shield to deflect incoming Ranged Attacks as a Parry Reaction.

If the Cavalier’s Attack roll meets or exceeds the Ranged Attack roll, the Attack is negated.
Steed
Starting at Cavalier Rank Five (5), the Cavalier can form an inseparable bond with a Large creature to serve as their loyal Mount. The Cavalier can summon their Steed to their side as a Full Action, provided the Steed is reasonably able to reach the Cavalier’s location. The Steed is not typically suited for traversing indoor environments.
During Combat, the Steed shares an Initiative with the Cavalier, acting in tandem during the Cavalier’s turn.

The Steed is only able to attempt Power-based and Skill-based Ability Checks. The Cavalier does not need to make a Drive Ability Checks when issuing commands or Fast Mounting their Steed. The Steed does not have Action Points, instead draining directly from the Cavalier’s pool of Action Points. A Cavalier can only have a single Steed at a time.
Steed Bonding
Prerequisite: Cavalier
Action Type: Ritual (1 hour)
As a Ritual the Cavalier spends one (1) hour during Downtime bonding with their Steed to upgrade their statistics to match the Cavalier’s experience.

The Steed’s statistics also include any of the Cavalier’s persistent passive effects, like Equipment bonuses from Training or Class Features, such as the Armor Bonus from Provide Cover, but do not extend to any temporary effects.
Utilize the following formula to calculate the Steed’s total Hit Points:
