-'''The Third Knight''' - The Third Knight was formerly held by Aleksei of the River, currently vacant.  The Third Knight is the lead of the College of Science and Magic.  This role is primarily a research and development role, the Third being charged with finding new ways of dealing with magical threats.  Often, the Third is called upon to venture out and deal with them first hand, since their role is mostly administrative in nature.  Aleksei of the River was trained by Marton Noon's Sun.  Both were host to Madora a Solar Celestial, and wielders of Morganna, the Resonance.

 '''The Fourth Knight''' - The Fourth is less Knight, and more Assassin.  Known as the velvet glove of the King, he is only rumored and feared.  Currently, this is Lysiath.  Lysiath has no surname, unlike the others.  Little is known about him (or her) save Lysiath has bound some form of Shadow Demon and wields a pair of daggers know as Fang and Claw.  Lysiath is one of the Elders, though no one knows if Lysiath is a member of the original or not.  Lysiath has been off the Isle more than any other member of the Knights.

-The Isle of Rodel is settled in the southern sea.  It is far enough south to be considered temperate in climate, with pine and other hard wood trees that would be common to the Myrken area. Of course, the trees are mildly different, but the overall picture is the same.  The island itself is surrounded almost completely by mountains.  The range is called the Shield of Blood.  The tops of the mountains have a strange effect that causes the snow to appear red in the winter months.  It had neer been discribed, but legend says is the the mourning of the land for the countless lives that had been sacrificed by the Blood King during his reign.  More likely is it is a strange property of the dirt and rock interacting with moisture from the snow.

 The center of the island is a valley streaching from the coast to each foothill.  Cutting down the center of the island, running from the northeast to the bay (more below) is the great River.  The River is offically called Tamahariel, but is more often just call the River.  In some places it is over seven hundred feet deep, and a half mile wide.  This area is called Losh Tamahariel.  (Note:  Tahamariel can be translated as 'Life Giver, or Bringer of Life.  Losh Tamahariel can be translated as the Cradle of the Life Giver, or the Birthplace of Life.)

 The military of Rodel is not in the strength of its numbers, but rather in the kind of military it has.  All magically active humans are required to be either in the military or priesthood.
-====Mundane====
+====The Mundane====
 The mundane force of Rodel is a basic phalanx style infantry.  Numbering a scant thousand in peace time, they are little more than a police force, charged with keeping the peace and dealing with what little crime exists on Rodel.  Nominally, they are under the First Knight (The General), but realistically they report to the Sixth Knight (The Magistrate).  During wartime or the threat of invasion, the numbers can swell to roughly five thousand, or more.  All men above the age of 15 are trained in moderate weapon use.  During the year, all men over the age of 22 and under the age of 31 are required to attend one month of military drilling and training.  The exact timing depends on the trade of the person in question, and exceptions are made if there would be undue hardship placed on the family or if the person has a medical condition preventing this.

 The Knights are the elite force of Rodel.  Charged with not only working as part of the government, they are responsible for the defense of the Realm from threats beyond the scope of the army, and enforcement of the Will of the King.  Not including the King himself, there are twelve Knights of Rodel, each with a different scope.
