Grounds for Removal/Dismissal

Death is the only way to leave this rank.

History

This rank has been in effect since the founding of the Kingdom of Merkan. It was one of honor. Unfortunately, for the person who now holds this title, they must send their fellow Defenders out among a population that fears them.

Cultural Significance

Telepathy
All telepaths wear purple. These Defenders can read minds. Currently the two strongest telepaths are Lann, and Eagan. Bryce is a unique telepath, who must catch the scent of a person to know their thoughts, but he has no way to block them.
