Praetoria

Effectively the opposite side of the Templars, in a manner of speaking. While the Templars serve the Madgod unflinchingly, the Praetoria serve Kyna Vance with a similar amount of zealousy, albeit to a lesser severity.



They have a bit of a subculture all their own, heavily resembling a Gothic aesthetic, with an emphasis on the color purple. (Which represents the element of shadow). They are based on a summoned Isle of Karmajia, which has a few bridges connecting to it.

The Praetoria themselves were once the catch-all term for Kyna's personal bodyguards, but they have become a small army in their own right, and the term is not used to encompass all the warriors who serve Kyna and Shadowcrest. Their armor is dark, thin (but powerful), and they tend to wield Halberds are their weapon of choice, and there is heavy training in such long spear-like weaponry.
