Squire Tasks

From BelegarthWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Squire tasks are requirements that a squire must complete prior to being knighted. They may be formalized like the listing below or they may be assigned on an ad hoc basis. Oftentimes, tasks may be assigned that identify a squire's weaknesses and how to correct them. Most squire tasks focus either on combat, service, or some combination of the two.
