==Overview==
The Knights of House Griffith are a fierce and proud warrior caste who value courage and skill at arms above all else. Duels of honour are commonplace amongst Griffith’s hot-headed Knights. A regular jousting tourney, the Field of Adamantium, dictates the standings of each family in society; a Knight can be preeminent one day, but overshadowed the next, should one of his rivals emerge triumphant.{{Fn|1a1b}}
The Knights of House Griffith use [[Knight Errant|Errant armour]] almost exclusively, the exo-suit’s powerful [[thermal cannon]] befitting these close range specialists. Such is their aggressive nature, however, that many of Griffith’s Knights eschew the use of ranged weaponry in battle unless absolutely necessary, preferring instead to charge forwards and strike down their foes with reaper [[chainsword]]s in glorious combat.{{Fn|1a1b}}
Its Knights are also known to serve within the [[Padah March]] alliance of [[Knight House]]s and [[Freeblades]].{{Fn|11a}}
