''By Michele Ellington [[Tawnee Darkfalcon]]''
 
−
 
−
This one is a history lesson on the award of the Lion and Warrior.
 
−
 
−
How ironic these statements are! I feel pressed to offer a little
 
−
history lesson. When we first started the club, the only order
 
−
offered for fighting was the [[Order of the Lion]]. At that time, [[knights]]
 
−
had a very definite code of conduct, which was expected of them. Not
 
−
everyone in the club wanted to be a knight. The [[Corsairs]] and a few
 
−
others recognized and freely acknowledged that this code of conduct
 
−
was not for them, and did not even solicit Orders of the Lion.
 
−
However, it quickly became clear that some of these "mavericks" were
 
−
some of our best fighters. It was clearly unfair that there was no
 
−
way to make public note of their skills. So we invented the [[Order of the Warrior]]. It was intended that a fighter who earned ten Orders of
 
−
the Warrior would become a [[Warlord]]. A Warlord was to be the
 
−
equivalent of the Knight, but not bound by the code of conduct
 
−
expected of the knights. When [[tournaments]] were conducted, the
 
−
fighters were watched for both skill and conduct, and were awarded
 
−
Warriors or Lions as was deemed appropriate by the [[Monarch]]. At this
 
−
time, there was only one form of [[Knighthood]]. [[Roses]] attributed to
 
−
titles of [[nobility]], and [[Dragons]] were simply prestige [[awards]]. Time
 
−
passed. Some confusion evolved about the intended difference between
 
−
Warriors and Lions. An odd sort of dichotomy arose, wherein Lions
 
−
were almost impossible to earn, yet Warlord was the club's most
 
−
coveted title. In my opinion, this was the result of the fact that
 
−
most of the really skilled fighters were the "maverick" types, and
 
−
the Monarchs all but forgot the existence of Lions and what they
 
−
meant. Warlord was a separate title from Knighthood, but was no
 
−
longer regarded as its effective yin/yang opposite. Warlords won
 
−
[[Crown Tourneys]] and were also knighted. The intent of the creation of
 
−
the Warrior as an Order separate from the Lion fell away. The focus
 
−
became wholly skill based, with no real evaluation of attitude
 
−
included. Monarchs came and went.
 
−
 
−
After a couple of years, the Monarch decided that Knighthood should
 
−
be broken into four belts: [[Sword]], [[Serpent]], [[Flame]], and [[Crown]]. To that
 
−
end, the Orders were all evaluated. The Order hardest hit was Lion.
 
−
The Monarch making the changes added Warriors as one of the Orders
 
−
contributive to Knighthood of the Sword. Then he broke the Order of
 
−
the Lion into Lions for combat and Griffins for chivalry. Then the
 
−
persons holding Lions were subjectively reviewed, and decisions were
 
−
made about whether they were good enough fighters to hold that number
 
−
of Lions, or if some of those awards had been given for chivalry more
 
−
than combat prowess. Some players' Lions were converted to Griffins,
 
−
and, if I recall correctly, no longer contributed towards Knighthood
 
−
of the Sword. As combat had always been the focus of the club,
 
−
deleting combat orders to make them "orders of the nice guy",
 
−
read "orders of the chump" by the much acclaimed Warlords who weren't
 
−
expected to play fair, was hardly a compliment. So now you see the
 
−
irony of your reference to Griffins as a highly sought after and
 
−
scarcely offered award.
 
−
 
−
I am sorry we lost the dichotomy between Warlords and Knights. I
 
−
think that a lot of the problems we experience today with Knights
 
−
acting in unsportsman like and un-chivalrous fashions would be
 
−
alleviated if there were another Prestige Track available to those
 
−
who aren't truly "knightly stuff". I have mixed emotions about
 
−
whether the "code of knightly conduct" should be enforceable, for
 
−
right and wrong are ever subject to interpretation. But there was a
 
−
time when those who knew themselves to prefer a less "moral" set of
 
−
expectations were able to earn prestigious titles and awards for
 
−
their skill alone. With this option available, it was certainly
 
−
easier to argue that Knights should be expected to meet certain
 
−
behavioral requirements.
