The Order of the Silver Rose

The Order of the Silver Rose is a religious order in Delos'Nordan, dedicated to service towards Nes. While it is not exclusive to the High Elves, few non-High Elves exist within its ranks, and humans, as well as other elves, are unofficially banned, except in Revansgar, where the Order also operates.   In some ways, the Silver Rose is akin to the Witch-Hunters, though it is more overtly dedicated to worship (whereas some chapters of the Witch-Hunters hunt undead without higher motives), and it has less of the structural issues associated with the varied chapter-houses. The Order also tends to be more disciplined and uniform in belief, due to its centralized nature, and any member of the Order is guaranteed to be working towards the same goals, the same of which cannot be said of the Witch-Hunters.   The Order is also more exclusive in its membership than others dedicated to Nes. Its members occupy all manner of scribes and crusaders, but all are expected to have both martial and intellectual prowess to best combat the threat of undeath. This requirement is also a result of the Silver Rose's associations with the Delos'Nordanian military, in which they have historically occupied an elite position in times of war; in the unfortunate situation of another crisis, the Silver Rose would undoubtedly be conscripted into service, where they'll need both advanced tactical awareness and fighting capabilities in order to be competent.
