Knights of Saint John Faction Document

[Elrainn]

Introduction

The Knights of Saint John are an extremely old elite organization that dates back to the days of the Sol System. Prieviously called the Knights Hospitaller, The Knights of Saint John are the remnants of the Italian Priory that was established on the planet Earth, during the Alliance-Coalition War, the Knights of Saint John, as ordered to do so by the Roman Catholic Church, fought alongside the Western Alliance, slowly each Priory was wiped out by the Coalition, until only the Italian Priory remained. Of the Italians that made it onto the Hispania Sleeper Ship, fifteen people were members of the Knights. When the Corsairs abandoned the Outcasts on the Sleeper Ship, The Knights stayed alongside their Italian Brethren. Slowly as the Sleeper Ship drifted towards Planet Malta (Which they played a key role in naming after their most familliar homeland on Earth) The So called "Spirits" Or Angels, That slowly helped them drift towards the planet, were percieved as tricks of the devil, or demons. However the majority of the people saw them as their Guardian Spirits. When they arrived on Malta, all members along with believers of the TRUE Faith, not only established the National Outcast Catholic Church, but also the newly formed order of the Knights of Saint John.

Present

Today, The Knights of Saint John is a Sprawling Millitary force that conists of about Five Thousand Men-at-arms, and about One Thousand-Four Hundred Knights. They Currently serve the Outcast Catholic Church aswell as the Outcast Commonwealth by converting non-believer's or killing the un-enlightened inhabitanats of the Sirius sector, they currently run several toll collecting operations and supply gathering operations within the Tau's near the Omicrons, the Knights of Saint John Currently own a small plantation on Planet Malta, where the slaves aen't in quite such harsh conditions, but slaves none the less. They also spread Cardamine to enlighten the populace of Sirius into the Liberty House, unlike most Outcasts, their goals don't include profit or control, but they merely wish to spread their beliefs and enlighten the populace via Cardamine. Many Knights have shown an increasing interest in the Bretonian and Kusarian Houses, Thier leader Alexial Vargas, is planning on calling in the Knights Council for a vote on whether or not they should relocate to Bretonia and assist the losing force in the protection of thier territory.

*** Before you start complaining about the fact that this is another Outcast Faction, Consider this, the SOB/BLS are and have been in-acvtive for a while now, the RoS are no longer Outcasts, the XTF are Lulwutters who shouldn't even be there, and the majority of the ESS has switched servers, the only active Outcast faction now is the 101st, now is another Outcast Faction really such a bad thing? ***
