Chivalry
of the Kingdom of Ansteorra

 

The Order of the Chivalry is two orders, The Order of Knighthood and the Order of Mastery at Arms.

The Chivalry is the peerage of Warriors. Noble Fighters, the leaders of our kingdom on the field of Battle. These Gentles have shown not only the skill and ability of martial combat, but also the grace and nobility as befits a Peer.

The textbook difference between a Knight and a Master at Arms, is the Oath of Fealty.

Simply put Knights take the Oath of Fealty, and wear the unadorned gold chain as a symbol of that oath.

Masters at arms do not take the Oath and therefore do not wear the Chain.

The Badges of Knight hood are "A White Belt" and "A Circular Chain".

The Badge of Mastery of Arms is "A White Baldric"

Knights are Addressed as "Sir" or "Dame" while Mastery at arms confers the address form of "Master or Mistress"
