Gameplay
The Order has three subfactions: the Shieldbearers, who form the bulk of the Order's military strength; the Swordbearers, who act as supernatural peacekeepers; and the Librarians, who often handle investigations.
[Order Shieldbearers]:
The largest military group within the Order, the Shieldbearers are responsible for the protection of others. They may protect humans from supernatural threats, or supernaturals from humans or other supers. Sometimes their work is overt, other times less so. It's common for many important humans to have covert Shieldbearers placed in their staff to combat any attempts to kill or manipulate them with supernatural means.
