The Valiant Faith is widespread and diverse. With each denomination and leader there are rites and traditions.
However, all of these faiths are united by the common belief in their recognition of Valiant's divinity and that
they are all a part of the Holy Valiant Phalanx. These individual denominations are led by their own leaders but
they all follow the unifying codified beliefs of Valiant as taught by His chosen Blessed.

The Sons of Valor {Aegis}
Led by Uriel Valhart. The Sons of Valor is a religiously inclined Warrior's Lodge that welcomes all
who value honour and battle. Housed on the island of Aegis, the Sons of Valor are known for their
siding with Archon during the Stasis and for the canonisation of the Court of Conflict.
The Valiant Order {Blackrush}
Led by a council of the chosen. The Valiant Order is the legacy of the Lady Raalvara Edelmonte. The
Valiant Order is left largely autonomous to rule over Blackrush Crossing and to act as the Faithful of
Valiant should bid. There are links with the Sons of Valor, through joint memberships and alliances.
The Earkfaith {Bol'nathar}
Led in faith by the efforts of Kam Hakiaz and Jerr'co, the Earkfaith is a mystical, spiritual endeavour
largely left to develop on its own out of respect of the Eark. There is, however, a connection between
the Sons of Valor and the Earkfaith that maintains their links in faith and brotherhood.
The Reichskirche {Kaltstadt}
Led in faith by the joint efforts of Uriel Valhart and Podric Flanders, the Reichskirche is the first such
organisation of its kind to be seen in Altera for a long time. Akin to the ancient Church of Might, this
Reichskirche is not dedicated wholly to Valiant, but is instead a joint-faith church with the faithful of
Ignis Synnove found within the Kaltstadt.

Positions within the Faith
Commander of the Faith - Uriel Valhart
The Commander of the Faith is a title granted by Valiant, often to the highest ranking blessed,
as a means to set them apart as the commanding cleric. The holder of this rank is the leader of
the Holy Valiant Phalanx and is tasked with the upkeep of the faith as a whole and the choosing
of Wardens to delegate their responsibilities to.
Wardens - Eren Abel, Jorvun Aersvar
The Wardens are those individuals of the blessed who are chosen by the Commander of the Faith
to oversee the cultivation and health of the faith in a certain area. Currently, Eren Abel is the Warden
of the Southern faith and Jorvun Aersvar is the Warden of the Riverlands' faith. They are expected to
oversee the teaching of new faithful and the upkeep of the temples within their domain. This is a rank
that offers more duties than it does power, as it is these Wardens that are tasked with knowing the
rites of their constituency and executing them perfectly. So far, the two Wardens have been granted
gifts by a Valiant messenger, to assist with their duties.
Sect Leaders - Rowley Durandal, Uriel Valhart
These are the leaders of the various sects within the faith. They are tasked with the more personal
mentoring and teaching of the members of their sects and personal temples. They are under the purview
of the Wardens' teaching and are expected to follow their call in directions of the Faith. So far, only
two such leaders exist but a potential third is being trained to oversee the Earkfaith and its rites.
Blessed - Uriel Valhart, Eren Abel, Jorvun Aersvar, Rowley Durandal
These are those who, through extraordianary faith, are granted the blessings of Valiant. Their power
varies, but beyond the aforementioned ranks, they are largely considered equal in power and in their say.
The blessed are tasked with upkeeping the tenets and maintaining a reputation of being the epitome of
the faith.
