Order of the Red Falcon

[Kaizer7]

This thread is just to garner interest and approval/disapproval from the DM's/devs.

For those of you who don't know, the Order of the Red Falcon is an order of fighters and paladins who dedicate their service to the Red Knight. More importantly, it is a canon organisation that is based just north of Baldur's Gate.

This wiki page doesn't give you much information much more than I have already written:

Responses please.

Might want to put this on hold as the Order weren't established until after the Time of Troubles, at this point in time they were still Lady Katlin's adventuring band, the Company of the Red Falcon. Albeit adding the Citadel is always a option as during all that the citadel was plundered, etc and could follow the same route as the temple of Bhaal/Friendly Arms approach.

Edit:

Here's a nice chuck of lore on the Citadel of Strategic Militancy (from Powers and Pantheons)

The Citadel of Strategic Militancy has arisen as the center of the Red Knight's faith outside of the aegis of the church of Tempus. Located at the juncture of the Coast Way and Thundar's Ride, approximately 40 miles northeast of Baldur's Gate, this small castle was the hold of the Bloodhawk clan, part of the minor, self-styled nobility scattered throughout the region encompassing the Fields of the Dead. The castle was built by Taric Bloodhawk over a century ago with money he plundered from an orc chieftain's secret horde during the battles of the Year of the Lost Lady (1241 DR).

During the night of the Fall of the Gods, Lady Kaitlin Tindall Bloodhawk, sole heir of Lord Ronlar Bloodhawk, was exploring the ruins enveloping the village of Tempus's Tears with the rest of her adventuring band, the Company of the Red Falcon. During the night, she was possessed by the Lady of Strategy to serve as her avatar host. The Red Knight forged the Company of the Red Falcon into a small, but powerful, mercenary company. She led the band south where the group was single-handedly responible for eradicating an army of monsters that swarmed out of the Forest of Tethir and threatened to overrun the northeastern quarter of beleaguered Tethyr. The strategic genius of the Red Knight enabled the Company to triumph against overwhelming odds and forever earned them a place in Tethyr's history.

When Lady Kaitlin returned to her ancestral home at the conclusion of the Godswar, however, she found the lands pillaged, the castle a smoking ruin, and all of the inhabitants put to the sword. Broken-hearted, she vowed revenge, but she could never discover the perpetrators of the foul deed. In her family's memory, she rebuilt the castle and dedicated it as a temple to the Red Knight.
Today the Citadel of Strategic Militancy is a bastion of military might and serves as the home of the newly founded Red War College. This school caters to military officers throughout the Realms who are sponsored by their lieges to study strategy and planning. The Citadel's walls are checkered with red and white marble, and a blood red dome tops the central keep. The central chapel is a giant lanceboard on which the priesthood engages in strategic battles during religious ceremonies. Farmlands in a 20-mile radius are worked by peasants who gladly embrace the Citadel's expanding hegemony. The havrested land serves as a training field in the cold winter months. High Lady Bloodhawk admnisters the burgeoning complex in the name of her liege, the Red Knight, and serves as First Lady Knight of the Red Standard (high priestess) of the faith.

What he said. The future citadel right now is the holding of the Bloodhawk clan, with Lady Kaitlin (heir or family member of the clan) being the leader of an adventuring company that will later form the order you describe.

I would really like to see the citadel added someday, and Red Knight has always been my favorite FR god.. but with our timeframe the Red Knight's importance is minimal as a demigod and her followers are likely fairly rare.
