Order of Rekkenmark

For almost a thousand years, the best military officers in Galifar graduated from Karrnath’s Rekkenmark Academy and joined the Order of Rekkenmark. During the Last War, members of the Order led Karrnath’s armies to victory time and again, often against daunting odds. Even in a time of peace, the opal ring that marks a member of the Order earns more respect from veteran soldiers than a dozen medals.
The vast majority of warlords and officers in the various Karrnathi armies graduated with honors from the Rekkenmark Academy and earned a place in the Order of Rekkenmark. But both King Kaius and the Karrnathi warlords sometimes bestow membership in the Order on those who excel on the battlefield or in other service to Karrnath. Joining the order in such a way is not unlike earning an honorary degree from a university or a battlefield commission. It’s recognition of skills and accomplishments equivalent to those who did excel at the academy.
