==Overview==
To the noble Knights of Hawkshroud, honour is the single most important virtue of all. So essential to their way of life is the esteem and reputation of their house that Hawkshroud’s Knights will honour any call to arms from those that have earned their loyalty or respect. It is for this reason that, at any given time, almost all of House Hawkshroud’s Knights are away on campaigns to uphold past alliances. Though he would never admit it, the ruler of House Hawkshroud, [[Viscount]] [[Tudon]], fears the day that his home world of [[Krastellan]] comes under attack. With so many Knights scattered across the [[galaxy]], his skeleton force would need significant support to defend Krastellan against a determined enemy.{{Fn|1}}
Unlike many other knightly houses, Hawkshroud’s Knights often
bear campaign markings, army badges and other such emblems
demonstrating loyalty to those they have sworn to aid. These serve
as a sign of dedication to the cause of their allies, and also act to
strengthen the bonds of brotherhood between the Knights and
those they fight alongside. After all, House Hawkshroud is proud
to stand by those that have stood by them in the past.{{Fn|6}}
