The [[Mantoni|Mantonian]] Royal Orders were formed from the twelve great armies that defended the town of [[Great Heldmar|Heldmar]] during the [[Battle of the Stars]].

Although Mantoni is a kingdom, its [[King of Mantoni|King]] is essentially just a figurehead - with the true power lying with the [[Royal Council]]. Each of the Royal Orders nominates a single [[Sorcerer Adventurer|Sorcerer]] to sit on the council, with the [[Royal Order of the Crown]] represented by the king. Although the king chairs the council, he does not have a vote unless the issue is tied.

Each of the Royal Orders maintains a [[Royal Citadels|citadel]] within Great Heldmar and, in addition, controls various territories throughout the rest of Mantoni. The various [[Noble Orders]] each owe alliegance to one or more of the Royal Orders and it is common for [[Warrior Adventurer]]s from these lesser orders to support their royal brethren.

With the obvious exception of the Order of the Crown, the Royal Orders are not based around any concept of inherant nobility and are entirely meritocratic, at least in theory. Any Mantonian may apply to join any order and their acceptance and eventual promotion is based entirely on their skill and judgement.

[[Ranks]] within the Royal Orders are the same as for Noble or [[Common Orders]], but membership of a Royal Order lends greater note to that rank.
