Doomguard Knights

History
Doomguard knights were an elite battalion of knights in the Doombraze war, the General Doombraze ran this group of elite knights against the Defilers from the years 945 to 957 before his death in the assault on Amon Wrath. The Doomguard knights continued on until their last knight was slain in 961 in the fall of the capital Savior just 4 years after the death of General Doombraze.

Appearance
Doomguard knights had black ebonstone and steel plate mail that protected the wearer thoroughly in combat. in addition they had large claymores or longswords and shields. The recon units the Doomguard Lightfoots wielded longbows and light leather armor outfitted with specially enchanted cloaks to blend into the terrain.

Battle Tactics
The Doomguard knights never worked alone and was usually outfitted with 1-2 other simple Norvanstein battalions. These extra men usually were paired with a Doomguard with small pods of 8-10 men each. The main general in battle which in most cases was Doombraze had a group of 25 men one of which was a Elixir Manipulator with a soul purpose of warding the general and to protect them from any enemy magicians. General Doombraze himself in combat usually charged forward into battle wielding his heavily infused magical weapons: The most famous of course was the Gorginoth war glaive which Doombraze used to break ranks of large defilers and to take out the captains of the enemy. In some battles such as the Skirmish on Crag Rock, General Doombraze would use Elixir bombs to take out the enemy archers who would perch on high up cliffs.
