LORE: Ebon Spurs Reform

It is believed that the Order of the Ebon Spur, the Noble Order of Zahir Knights, will be reformed ahead of the creation of the Order of the Imperial Crown. Known in history for the unusual "two rapier" style that their first Knight-Captain adopted, and for their long-running fued with the 'young upstarts' within the Darkwater Fleet, the Order of the Ebon Spur was disbanded in 557 ATA after the Empire - and, indeed, House Zahir - no longer had need for an expensive Knightly Order. They will be reformed in an effort to ensure that House Zahir has a distinctive presence within the Imperial Order. It is said that the name is derived from House Zahir often being thorns in the side of their foes, and - though this lore in unconfirmed by scholars - because they are often attributed as being the first "Knights" to adopt Obsidian Armor as their officially sanctioned uniform.
