Oct 06, 2004 12:11:27 I was looking at the DragonLance campain book the other day and I saw that the Knights of the Crown and Rose get D10 for their hit die, but the Knight of the Sword gets a D8. Why is this?

And then added Smite Evil and Soul of the Knighthood or whatever. In my games I give the Knights of the Sword a d10, it makes sense to me. Basically the Knight of the Sword is just a cleric

The Crown order is focused upon battle almost entirely.....whereas the Sword order focuses more on the clerical aspect of the Knighthood. The Rose order goes back to the d10 likely because the focus shifts to both aspects equally.
