Spears of Cuiraécen.png
The Spears of Cuiraécen are young, active, and proud. They see any business but war as unfitting to them, and expect deference and appreciation from the people. Despite their considerable pride, the order serves as an important addition to the small army of Tuornen. While they pledge military service to the Count of the province where they live, the Spears take orders from the hierarchy of the Militant Order of Cuiraécen, not the feudal hierarchy of the realm in which they dwell. They can, and do, clash with the soldiers, sheriffs, and officials of the local province. They acknowledge no law but Haelyn's and reserve the right to a trial of their own peers in the Order overseen by one of their own priests of Haelyn. Some accuse them of being a state within a state, and their proficiency at arms both defends and threatens the local order. Cuiraécen is an enemy of tyranny, and abuses by local officials or even the count can result in hot-tempered knights righting the wrongs of the unjust authorities. Despite the troubles the Spears cause to their secular hosts, their military ability is undeniable and they are the only ones to win more often than they lose when they confront Rhuobhe Manslayer.
