  Requirements 
  In order to become a Bachelor Knight one must: 
  � A Bachelor Knight must reside in Sunndi (and stay a
  resident while he is a Knight). 
  � A Bachelor Knight must have an unblemished
  reputation, and thus may not be in disfavor with the
  Crown or have been convicted for a crime against the
  King’s Law. 
  � 2 ranks in Diplomacy and Knowledge [nobility and
  royalty] 
  � One can only apply for knighthood once – if you leave
  service, you cannot ever rejoin. Hence, only those who
  have not been a squire before can join. 
  � Serve at least 1 year as a Squire. 
   
  Initial costs 
  � A Bachelor Knight should excel thrice in the eyes of his
  peers and thus gain their favor three times. A Bachelor 
  Knight spends 1influence point with his sponsor, and 2
  influence points with two different organizations or
  nobles that have a seat in the Congress of Lords. The
  Squire’s permanent influence point with his sponsor
  cannot be used for this purpose. 
  � The name of the sponsor should be noted above on the
  AR. 
   
  Recurring Costs 
  � A Bachelor Knight must follow the Code at all times. The 
  code, abbreviated, is: 
  � Love and protect Sunndi and its citizens. 
  � Be always the champion of right against injustice. 
  � Follow all feudal obligations. 
  � Treat the weak/defenseless with respect, and act as
  a defender of the downtrodden. 
  � Be generous and charitable to all. 
  � Act humbly, honorable and with courage at all
  times. 
  � Always display his alliance to his sponsor 
  � A Bachelor Knight must always give help to those in
  need, and thus spend 8 Time Units on behalf of Sunndi
  and it’s citizens. 
  � A knight who decides to end his service looses any and
  all favors with members of the Congress of Lords of
  Sunndi, with the exception of Bren. Also, with the war
  going on, stepping out of service may be seen as
  desertion (see the Sunndi Army for details). 
  Benefits 
  � A Bachelor Knight is treated as a minor noble, and
  gains the respect of most people in Sunndi, due to
  his knightly behavior and his respect for all people.
  The exact effects of this in-game, when not dictated
  by the scenario, are up to the DM. 
  � A Bachelor Knight gains the rank of lieutenant, even
  if he does not have enough military promotion points.
  A Bachelor Knight may advance to the rank of
  captain if he accumulates enough military promotion
  points and has been a lieutenant for at least 6
  months.  
  � A Bachelor Knight has a +3 circumstance bonus on
  Diplomacy check with his sponsor and his subjects,
  and +1 circumstance bonus on Diplomacy with other
  Sunndi citizen, excluding the inhabitants of
  Brennathar and the members of Bren’s Men.  
  � A Bachelor Knight has a +3 circumstance bonus on
  Intimidate to those who oppose his sponsor, and a +1
  bonus to those who are seen as enemies of the nation
  of Sunndi. This includes the Wastrians and
  bullywugs of the Vast Swamp and individuals as
  determined by the DM. Note that Ahlissans are not,
  by default, seen as enemies of the nation. 
  � As a reward for his services to King and Country, a
  Bachelor Knight can command a free rich lifestyle in
  Sunndi. 
  � A Bachelor Knight always has the ear of his Sponsor,
  granting him a permanent Influence Point with that
  sponsor. 
  � A Bachelor Knight is considered well liked, as
  described in the chapter ‘Divine Spellcasting in
  Sunndi’, by any of the non-evil resident faiths in
  Sunndi, with the exception of Olidammara (who just
  don’t care), and Sehanine Moonbow (who are rather
  discriminating). 
  � A Bachelor Knight has the right to use the honorary
  title "Sir", and to have their own heraldry. 
  � A Bachelor Knight has the right to command
  soldiers in the army of their sponsor. When in
  Sunndi, a Bachelor Knight may recruit one 1st-level
  Warrior for a mundane task, such as running errands
  or standing guard at a public occasion to ward off
  public. He cannot take this guard on an adventure or
  command the guard to fight on his behalf – only
  non-combat assignments are allowed. A recruit asked
  to fight is in his right to refuse the assignment.
