Lucius AgathosElectus Maximus of the Knights Solaire(e6b519)Appearance:At 74 years old, age has taken its clear toll on Lucius. He is losing what remains of his vision, and no longer has the stamina of younger men. However, he has taken huge pains in order to keep himself in shape, and he is still as strong as - if not stronger than - a soldier 40 years younger than him. Standing at 6'0", he has a solidly built body and a strong face accented by fading blue eyes. It is clear that in the past, he was quite a handsome man, although he was never known to have been in a relationship.
Personality:Lucius is considered incredibly conservative in his religious and political beliefs. As the Knights Solaire becomes increasingly radical, he remains as the most influential person who still believes in the old ways of the order, namely: non-partisanship, and peace over war.
As a person, he is known to be one of the most honorable people to have walked the lands of Trevast. If he makes a promise, he will do anything and everything in his power to fulfil said promise. In addition, he demands the utmost discipline of those around him, and will punish those who disobey his orders personally.
A Brief History: Lucius was the fourth child of the head of House Agathos during the time of his birth. As he grew up, he and those around him found that he had a knack for fighting that his brothers and sisters did not have. Thus, he honed it up until it was time for 'The Discovery', upon which he set out to explore the world with nothing but clothes, some supplies, and an Elari greatsword.
Soon after, Lucius found and joined the order. He quickly rose in influence and respect once he was knighted. Displaying his leadership in numerous raids (on both the attacking and defending sides), he was one of the youngest members to have ever become an Electo Electi - a Chosen amongst the Chosen.
Eventually, he was voted by his fellow Knights to become the Electus Secundo of Rjilland. A position in which he thrived. Upon the sudden death of the prior Electus Maximus, he was eventually voted in by his fellow Electi as his successor.
During his time as the Electus Maximus, he has watched as the Knights Solaire has grown more and more radical in their beliefs, with the current majority supporting policies that are, in his opinion, fundamentally against the standings of the Knights Solaire. Thus, he has done his utmost to reign in his men and attempt to teach them the importance of their values.
Nothing majorly bad has happened under his command, but nothing significant has either. He wishes to change that in the near future, before his inevitable death.

Arradel Agathos Captain of the Golden Company, of the Golden Legion
Appearance:
At 30 years old, Arradel stands tall at 6'1". She has a rough, angular face and bleached shoulder-length hair that she normally keeps tied in a small bun. Her fingers are calloused from years of handling weaponry and she has numerous scars from old wounds littered across her body. She commonly wears a once-golden armor that has lost its glimmer through the years of her service in the Golden Legion. Personality:Although raised as nobility, the flowing mannerisms and polite speech that Arradel was taught to use in her youth have given way to a harsh brusqueness and commanding aura. While she cares for those around her, she will never take no for an answer while she is in command and any dissent is harshly punished. Unfortunately, her directness also carries over into her everyday life, and she often accidentally comes across as rude. A Brief History:Arradel was born as the third child of the Brenin of the Elari Unireta, Elar Agathos. Being the daughter of such a man meant that Arradel was afforded only the best when it came to her education, and she was trained in the tradition that all Elari Astorosi were. Thus, she developed a knack for command and warfare second only to Lucius Agathos, her grand uncle who was legendary for his skill in combat during his youth.
Thus, when she went on 'The Discovery', she was naturally drawn to the fortunes of war. At the time, the Rjilland-Alendron war was in full swing, and opportunities were abound for mercenaries and soldiers alike. Thus, she decided to join the Alendron military as an officer. Due to her being from a noble house of Alendron, she was readily accepted. She served with distinction during the war, and was well liked by the rank and file due to the fact that her "noble sensibilities" were slowly being replaced with a terse but caring front. Eventually, she was placed as an overseer for the Golden Legion, an elite mercenary company. While initially she and the mercenaries clashed over strategies and methodologies, after a few operations together they began to respect each other for their skill.
When the war ended, the Golden Legion, seeking to recuperate the considerable losses they suffered over the course of the war, offered her an extremely well paying job as the Captain of the Golden Company - a new and somewhat independent contingent of 500 handpicked soldiers that would be placed under Arradel's command. She decided to take up their offer over Alendron's own offer of reenlistment.
