The Knights of Solamnia

The Knights of Solamnia are one of the greatest fighting forces on Krynn. They have existed for over 2,000 years (founded in 1,775 PC). During that time the ranks of the Knights have both swelled to great numbers and depleted to almost nothing. So, to further the cause of the Knighthood, I shall supply all possible info and ease the process of joining the ranks.
