Knights of the Cross

The Knights of the Cross embody the best traits sentient life has to offer. We are strong and unyielding against evil, honorable in word and deed, and just to all, citizens and travelers alike. We are the order in chaos, the shield against the blade of wickedness, and the shining beacon of truth in the dark sea of falsehoods.
-Lyra Demonsbane, Guildmaster and High Paladin of the Knights of the Cross.

Housing and Food
The Knights boast that they can house the most guild members in Fortress Cross. This is indeed true, one of the lower floors is devoted entirely to the barracks, where all guild recruits can live. Each recruit has their own cot, and a small bedside table and drawer to store their belongings. The barracks can house hundreds of Knights, although they don't offer much in the way of privacy. The barracks also have open communal bath, a long narrow room with a number of booths and stalls for showering or using the toilet.
One floor up is the Mess Hall, which is open during normal meal hours and serves hard military rations. All of these provisions are free of charge.
