The reasons a Noble Lord might take up the mantle of a crusade are many and varied, ranging from the practical to the spiritual, but the end results are often the same: a loyal noble in charge of an armed host at the disposal of the church to wield against its sanctioned enemies without infringing upon the ancient laws that still bind the church. These warriors take up the mantle of the devout and strike fear into the hearts of their foe who know no action is forbidden to them in pursuit of the Churches enemies.
