[edit] Armor Disciples
Armor Disciples follow the fighting style of the ancient hero Hughes. They use their armor, shield, and lance for maximum effect. They are sometimes described as moving walls of iron and steel.
Armor Disciples have become heavily incorporated into the court of Chrade; nearly all the body-guards of important nobles are followers of this discipline.

Armor Ordeal: An Armor Disciple is one with his armor; All Armor Disciples help craft their own plate armor, which they will use as long as they are armor Knights.
This Special Armor Provides +8 to AC, and -4 Armor Penalty. It covers the body completely, from head to toe. This Armor does not reduce move, but reduces Dex Modifier to 0.
The Armor Disciple only gains his damage reduction ability while wearing this armor. If it is somehow destroyed, he must spend one undisturbed week crafting another.
Defensive Stance: As Knight Protector (Complete Warrior) Skill.
Lances +1: Any lance the Earth Disciple uses is treated as having at least a +1 bonus; this however, doesn't stack with any magical bonuses the weapon may actually have.
Inspiring Fortitude:
Allies within 20 feet of the Armor Disciple gain a +2 inspiration bonus on Fortitude Checks. The Armor Disciple also gains this bonus, at all times.
Improved Armor: The AC Bonus from the Armor Disciples special Armor increases to +10
Great Armor: The AC Bonus from the Armor Disciples special Armor increases to +12
