Sir Logan Stasov is a Temple Knight of Saradomin and former Cavalry Officer of the Asgarnian Military played by the user Blade Cairan. He holds the rank of Captan and is currently serving as the Commanding Officer of Team Sabre. Sir Logan had started his military career with the White Knights at the age of eighteen and was promoted to an Initiate after his mandatory three months of squireship. After three and a half years of serving with the White Knights, Logan was then recruited into the Temple Knights as an Initiate in which he spent four years. From there, he was transfered to the Asgarnian Military to serve in the Wryven Knights underneath King Varis the Second which eventually led to him being a Commanding Officer of a troop sized Cavalry unit. After some time with his Cavalry troop, he returned to the Temple Knights to continue his service to Saradomin. Apart from his Military career, Logan is an adept carpenter and a less-than-professional practitioner of medicine, formerly making him a combat medic within the Knights. He has a sister who is currently married to an Ardougnese banker living in Ardougne, and is of Morytanian descent.

Early Life[]

Sir Logan was born in the year 151 of the 5th age in the city of Falador. He was second born into his family of four, only having one other sibling named Fiona who later started to study medicine to become a physician. Logan's father, Artyom, was a former member of the Myreque. His mother Polina was also a Morytanian but never had held a profession. Logan grew up with two supportive parents and got along well with his sister. He was intrigued by his father's stories of the Myreque and their tight situations. Logan and Fiona were both educated by Polina and eventually Logan got a job as an apprentice carpenter while his sister took up being a nurse at a local hospital. Logan learned a lot about medicine from his sister and developed an interest in it, but never took it up as a profession despite what his sister insisted.

Enlistment[]

Around Logan's eighteenth birthday, when he was promoted to a journeyman carpenter, he took it upon himself to enlist into the White Knights. Both of his parents and his sister supported his decision and off he went to talk to a local recruiter about enlisting. After he signed a few scrolls and was scheduled for a physician check, he was told that he was not allowed to join due to a medical issue pertaining to having flat feet. Extremely upset, Logan had his sister Fiona vouch for him saying that his feet were not to be an issue in serving and that he would be able to perform like anyone else despite having flat feet. It took the Knights a few months to decide, but eventually they accepted the waiver and took him in as a squire.

The White Knights[]

Squirehood[]

Logan began his squirehood about two months after initially enlisting, taking those two months of waiting to visit his family over in Varrock. Most of Logan's family were actually still in Morytania according to his father, but some immigrated across the salve with Logan's parents and resided in Varrock. During his short vacation in Varrock, Logan met a reporter working for the Gielinor Times and was briefly interviewed about the White Knights and the enlistment process. Logan's time in Varrock with his family was short lived for he had to return to Falador to report to the castle and his first duties as a squire.

Logan's time as a squire was uneventful, and he never really made any connections with the other squires among his class. He hopped around the Knights quite a bit. He was first assigned to the White Knight group Bravo Company for a couple of weeks but quickly learned that this was not the group he'd wish to be assigned to for most of Bravo Company's roster were former criminals and mercenaries. A little while after his request, he was transferred over to the Leonid Chapter, which was a little more professional but seemed to be having quite a lack of active Knights. Logan was promised to be assigned to a Knight as a squire but it seemed that he kept getting forgot about, eventually to a point where he wasn't even learning any thing else than cleaning and moving boxes. Eventually, Logan requested yet another transfer during his nineteenth birthday, and was moved to the long standing White Knights of Falador that was formed by former White Knight Commander Sir Tain Def many years ago. It was here where he met his friend, another squire, Lianna. Lianna was just starting her squire days as Logan was about to graduate a week after. Finally, after three long months of serving as a squire to multiple companies of White Knights, Logan was finally knighted as an Initiate by Commander Khotland in the White Knights of Falador.

Initiate[]

Logan was stationed at the White Knight Castle; Most of his time off duty was spent at the Rising Sun Inn outside the castle in Falador. His first few months as an Initiate were ill spent, not doing much more than patrolling, training the guard, and general janitorial duties. There isn't much to do for infantry when there aren't any wars to fight! Occasionally he'd shoot the shit with some of his other Knight friends, or Lianna the squire. But other than that he either did his work or drank while off duty because there really wasn't much else to do.

A Temple Knight named Nikolai who befriended Logan during his squireship met Logan in a bar one night and the two talked for a bit, before Logan noticed an armored man at the end of the bar try to steal a woman's staff. Although off duty, Logan thought it was his duty to advise the man of his wrong doing and demand he give the staff up. The man complied, but ended up agressive and wanting to start a fight with Logan. Logan denied, but other patrons in the bar went at it. Nikolai, likely angered, went to arrest the man and ordered Logan to assist. However, Logan thought it was wrong to arrest the man. So Nikolai got angry and went to slam Logan's head against the table, where Logan retaliated and went to punch him across the face. Nikolai dropped Logan to the ground before he regained his cool and requested for the two to go for a walk to the castle. They talked a bit as they walked, and the two apologized and made up.

One day, while returning from a patrol in the city, Logan found Lianna in the kitchen acting strange, as if she were hiding something. He didn't think much of it at first until he realized there was something in the cupboard with Lianna not wanting him to see. Curious and persistent, Logan kept pursuing what she was hiding until she was found in the armory harboring a cat. He thought it was a little ridiculous that she was hiding a cat, but never the less he told her he'd look the other way whenever anyone was suspicious. Logan occasionally took Lianna out for patrols.

A few days later Logan, Lieutenant Scott Land, and Lianna were chilling out in the castle barracks when these two plant like people came walking in, demanding for Logan. They denied to give him up and a little fight pursued. Logan himself didn't fight, but rather Lianna got him out of there white Lieutenant Land fought off the plant people until they left. Lieutenant Land was hurt in the shoulder by a vine spike and Lianna was burned by scolding hot water on the torso. After this affair, Logan volunteered to become a combat medic within the Knights. His request was accepted, and most of his time off duty was now spent studying medicine and exchanging notes with his sister.

After he was named combat medic, his duties changed a bit. It was full of less patrols and more patient treating in the castle infirmary. Wasn't as boring, but very tedious. Not a few days later, Lieutenant Land was wounded in the neck during a spar and required Logan's immediate medical assistance, in which case he responded and successfully stopped the bleeding and treated the wound.

The next day, Logan and Lianna were out on another uneventful patrol. When they returned to the castle, a man who was visiting that was prior service named Sir Ozan came into the room, in which case Lianna didn't trust for some reason. Long story short, Sir Ozan explained to the two why he was missing one eye and offered them tea. Logan declined, and Lianna was unresponsive to him so the man decided to make himself and her tea. It seemed he slipped Lianna some sleep potion in her tea, for she was very fatigued after taking a few sips. This worried Logan, and caused him not to trust Ozan. It turned out Lianna was alright, but Logan did not get very much sleep that night. Sir Ozan was a shady character.

About a week later, Logan experienced his first real taste of chaos. Late one night Logan was doing a training session with the guard, when fighting was heard from the Rising Sun Inn. Logan went to investigate. Inside, he found many patrons fighting with weapons and wrestling. He tried his best to gather everyone's' attention, but it seemed that poor Logan was simply ignored. There wasn't much he could do but observe and wait, since he would've been overpowered if he decided to partake in the fighting. Eventually the fighting subsided, and all the belligerents left excluding one man who was impaled by a spear from a goblin, and a red haired kid who ran like the wind. Logan immediately went to assist the man who was impaled by giving him medical attention, but the man refused. And so did the man's friend. His friend advised Logan to back off. Despite Logan's intention and best wishes, he complied and watched the man teleport his friend and himself away. Logan thought it so weird, how fast fighting can start and stop here, and found it sad that he was basically doing a lazy guardsman' job. Huh.

The next day wasn't any better. Just as Logan was about to go off duty, Lt. Land came out of the castle in full battle gear looking to spar some one. The shady character, Sir Ozan, who was also outside decided to accept the challenge and spar Lt. Land. Logan and Lianna watched the two spar, and as fate had it, Lt. Land hurt himself gravely once again in a spar. This time, it was for death. He hit his head into the ground causing his helmet to dent in and damage his brain, instantly killing him. Logan and a few other medics responded. They tried their best to revive Lt. Land but unfortunately it was too late, as he was already a goner. They carried Lt. Land's body away on the stretcher as Logan watched, while Lianna and Sir Ozan went back inside. Logan wasn't so much as sad since he didn't know the LT very well as much as he was shocked. He's never seen a dead body before, and never thought he'd see one in the castle. Logan returned to the barracks and spotted Lianna and Ozan once again, who seemed to be angry at each other. Logan gave them the grave news, and just as he did a Temple Knight Captain walked in and questioned the three about the event that just went down. At the end of the day, it was decided that Lt Land's death would be investigated.

Logan was out on a four day field exercise the day after. His unit tasked him with scouting around a few clicks east of their camps location during the second evening. As Logan was scouting around, he spotted a little black amulet on the ground in the middle of a clearing in the forest. Curiously, Logan approached it and examined it. It appeared to have a Zarosian symbol on it's black face, with the skull of a dead animal picture as well and what appeared to be an optical illusion on the back that swirled the more he looked at it. He assumed it to be something of witchcraft but thought it to be a neat trinket, so he kept it on him as he went to walk back to the camp, keeping it to himself. Two days later, just as Logan returned to the castle and went off duty to enjoy a nice weekend, he wanted to investigate about the amulet. He walked into the castle library after hours to study a little bit, and found a strange zarosian book matching the amulet he possessed. He assumed it to belong to one of the Temple Knights who probably forgot to take it out of the library, and decided to check the book out. At first, it appeared to be just a bunch of rabbling and gibberish, but eventually it started to oddly come together in his head. He didn't understand, but it did. He decided that he should seek a historian's help during his free time, whenever that was, and left the library taking a risk by keeping both the book and amulet with him.

The weeks following were filled with uneventful patrols and janitorial duty, until a promotion ceremony hit. Logan's squire friend Lianna was finally knighted as an Initiate in the order, and Logan himself was promoted to Proselyte with a nice pay raise!

Proselyte[]

Logan's promotion to Proselyte meant better pay and more respect from his peers and superiors. However, his duties still stayed relatively the same as they were being an Initiate. Immediately following his promotion, a Temple Knight Captain named Ellie Sharp approached Logan and asked if he was interested in joining the Temple Knight Order. As esthatic as ever, he told her he'd like to join. Therefore, she made him fill out a scroll and she told him they'd contact him down the road.

Another month passed with no action before the White Knights received a message from the Temple Knights, explaining that there was a journal out in Varrock that described the location of an ancient text that held more of the White Knight Order's history written down. They tasked some of the White Knights, including Logan, Sir Ozan, Lady Lianna, Captain Stone, Commander Vye, and Commander Kohtland, to retrieve the journal and find out where the text was located. The week following, the Knights that were tasked took a two day march to Varrock. This was Logan's first real mission, and he was excited. The whole march there, his adrenaline was pumping. As soon as they arrived in Varrock, they explained their mission to Varrock authorities and the Guard escorted them through the castle into the library, where the journal was supposedly located. The Knights searched the library for a little while before finding the journal, saying that the scroll was located somewhere around the Lumbridge area. Figuring they should stay the night in the Varrock area and head out the next morning, the Knights traveled to the Jolly Boar Inn and rented three

rooms where they relaxed for the evening. While they were relaxing down stairs, it seemed a Kinshra Black Knight was watching them from across the Inn. Logan thought it weird that a Kinshra was this far outside of Asgarnia, but didn't think much of it. He just wanted to relax. Lianna however didn't seem so keen with the idea of letting the Kinshra stay, so she continued to watch before he left and the Knights went to bed. The following morning, bright and early, the Knights once again set out south to Lumbridge. It took them a day to walk south before actually reaching Lumbridge, where Commander Kohtland searched for the General Store for some reason. Logan saw the Lumbridge Crater and the monument as he waited for the Commander. Eventually, The Commander found the store, came out, and told them they were headed to Al-Kharid for some reason. Logan, at this point, had no idea why they were walking now. Wasn't the scroll in Lumbridge? Never the less, Commander Kohtland led them half a day's walk to Al-Kharid where they were to meet a banker at the bank. Logan didn't like Al-Kharid too much, the people smelled and were very rude to them. They spent some time in the bank after locating it, with Commander Kohtland arguing with the banker. After some time, Commander Kohtland said they had to head across the Lumbridge Swamp to the Wizards' Tower. So once again, they walked across into the swamp where they camped for the night, and in the morning came upon the Wizards' Tower. They entered the Wizards' Tower, and Commander Kohtland & Captain Stone went upstairs while Sir Ozan, Lianna, and Logan stayed downstairs. Ozan started to act a little strange, not wanting to enter the tower. Eventually he did, and somehow showed a great deal of pain as he did. Logan thought he was playing a prank. The Commander and the Captain came back town with the scroll they were looking for and said it was time to head back to Falador, so off they went, taking three and a half days through Edgeville into Falador. The Knights were welcomed home with a ready warm meal.

The first thing Logan did when he returned home from the mission was take a drink at the Rising Sun Inn. While he was enjoying his mind bomb, his friend Lianna came in. The two talked for a bit before a Fremennik man came by and challenged Logan to a drinking contest. Although Logan really wanted to accept, Lianna advised him not to and got a little angry at him. Logan eventually declined the challenge much to the Fremennik's dismay, and apologised to Lianna. She accepted the apology, and eventually the two went back to the castle to enjoy a two day weekend after getting played with by the Fremennik and his owl.

A few days later, Logan and Lianna were on bridge guard duty went a man named Cralix and his goblin came, requesting access to the castle. Lianna acted a little rude to the man, but Logan quickly apologised for the Initiate's attitude and let them go into the castle after they explained themselves. Shortly afterwards, they came out and tried to tell the two that they bought the castle. Of course Logan and Lianna didn't believe them, but eventually they got hostile and started to attack the Knights. Lianna was knocked out fairly quickly, but Logan held up a fight against the two before he also was knocked out. Logan awoke in the castle infirmary, as angry as ever.

Later that day, Lianna introduced Logan to man named Rokrim from Draynor who wished to join the Knights. Although there was no recruiter around, Logan saw that the man came from far away and decided to help him join, letting him sign a paper and skip the recruiter process. Logan and Lianna gave the new squire a tour of the castle and situated him in, letting him know his duty starts the next day.

The next day, Logan assisted yet another White Knight hopeful into enlisting into the White Knights named Katrina. This one was a special case, however. While Logan was guarding the gate, a woman in fine but ragged looking clothes came asking to enlist into the Knights. Logan told her he'd assist, and led her inside to the west tower. To their surprise, the King of Falador himself, King Varian I was there in the tower! It shocked Logan; He politely addressed the King and informed him of the new arrival. He told Logan to carry on, so Logan took a recruitment paper and took the woman to the barracks where he briefed the woman. He gave her the same deal he gave Rokrim the other day. The woman informed Logan that she was royalty, soon to be Queen, on the run from her Kingdom of Albion and that men from Varrock were after her. She requested he hide her status from the other Knights and that she sign under the alias of "Mary". Logan didn't really believe her, and even if she was telling the truth he wasn't very keen on letting her in. But she eventually talked him into letting her join. Just as she was getting situated as a squire, a man came in, who ended up to be the Duke of Albion. He asked for the woman and told them that the King was on his way to retrieve her. She ran off into the castle, leaving Logan alone to see the King. The Duke walked Logan out to the courtyard, where the King of Albion arrived. The King greeted Logan and was very friendly. Logan explained to him the situation, and the King requested an alliance between the Knights and Albion, but Logan said that he was not the man to talk to- and that he should speak to Commander Kohtland. The King agreed and asked Logan to take him for a tour around the city, in which he did. At the end of the day, Logan split ways with the King and Duke of Albion and went back to the castle. Logan still wasn't sure if they were the real deal or not.

A week later, Logan decided to research more about the book and amulet he found a few weeks prior in his free time. During one weekend, he searched for a historian in Falador, where he explained the names, the book, and the amulet to the historian. The Historian suggested three people to search for- A Nun, a Druidess, and priest of a tribal religion. Logan achknowledged the Historian with many thanks and traveled half a day south to Rimmington, where he was to start his research with the nun. When Logan arrived in Rimmington, he asked the local townspeople where this particular nun, Sister Harriet Payne, might be located. They all pointed to the local hospital. So Logan walked to the hospital, where he was greeted by a Sister Hope. Sister Hope told Logan that Sister Harriet Payne was upstairs, so Logan went to meet her. Sister Harriet Payne was obviously a little coocoo, but she was full of knowledge about this subject. She mentioned to Logan that his was a dark force, called The Darkness, and that it has noticed Logan and was hungry for his knowledge. She advised Logan to seek out the Druidess in Taverly. Logan thanked her and went downstairs to check out with Sister Hope. Sister Hope offered Logan a teleport to Taverly. Logan accepted although never teleporting before. So, he teleported off- finding himself nauseous and started to puke as he landed. But, he was in Taverly. So he began searching for the Druidess, eventually to find her near the stone circle to the north. This Druidess turned out to be Lady Natalie Renderra herself. She assisted Logan by telling her of how her ancestors fought off a similar 'Darkness' before, and how there are four groups that worship him- being, Oavatos of the North, Leone Fearghal of the South, Abdul-Qadir of the East, and the removed Marcato of the West. However, she mentioned that they were all sort of removed, and that there are Goblins in captivity that might know about the amulet. Ultimately she suggested Logan seek help before going any further, else he may find his sanity slip. He agreed, and she suggested to ask around the Saradominist Church. Logan thanked her and went to walk back to Falador, soon to seek assistance.

Weeks go by, patrols happen, patients treated, guard duties on and off- with no action. The interest in staying with the Knights was starting to dwindle with Logan. It isn't really what he thought it would be like. But he continued to stay in hopes the Temple Knights would contact him again. Of course they didn't, but he still thought it a chance. Early one afternoon, a noble wedding was to be had between some Temple Knight and the Princess of Asgarnia. Logan was given the special assignment of guarding the bridge with a man named Tyrael. Logan and Tyrael got along fairly easily and made sure everyone who was attending the wedding was legitamate. They were told not to let any from Camelot inside, aside from the king himself, King Sennis. Everything was going smoothly until one masked man tried to forcefully gain access by spraying an orb of pepper spray down near Logan and trying to climb up the castle wall. Logan was stunned, but thankfully the archers on the rooftop halted the man from gaining any ground, so he had to run away. Logan was a little angry but alas was relieved no one was hurt. Among some of the guests that came through were the Queen of Ardougne, Princess of Yanille, Duke of Witchhaven, and the Duke of Lumbridge. Eventually, Logan and Tyrael were relieved from duty and decided to enjoy some of the festivities inside. Just as Logan and Tyrael entered the castle, the King of Camelot, King Sennis, was literally backstabbed by the Duke of Witchaven in the Temple Knight-to-be-married's arms. The King and Groom teleported away due to the King's ring of life, and chaos started to go down in the castle while the Duke of Witchaven made his escape. Tyrael told Logan to keep the patrons safe as he and Princes Isla teleported off somewhere- Logan assumed to safety. Logan tried to gain control of the situation just as things cooled down, but it seemed the Queen of Asgarnia, Queen Zara (who was pregnant), started giving birth to the baby. The Duke of Lumbridge helped the Queen upstairs as the other Queen of Ardougne followed. Logan decided to follow as well and offer any assistance, considering most of the other medical staff in the castle were away in the field on training. Confusing, I know, so I'll skip to the end. The Queen gave birth to a baby with the help of Logan, the Queen of Ardougne, and the Duke of Lumbridge. Logan thought that was enough shit for one day and decided to go off duty early and rest in the barracks while everyone calmed down in the castle. He wasn't payed enough for this crap!

A weekend later, Logan was resting in the bar when he met a magician by the name of Onave. The magician and Logan talked for a bit before a woman by the name of Niah came in to join the

Squad pic — Logan on the far left with a squad of Knights during a mission.

chat. They talked for a little while, and the woman Niah described that she was a sellsword who lost her weapon somewhere in the wild outside of the city. Logan offered to help, but she declined and said she'll search for it herself. She left the bar, as did Onave, only to return an hour later asking Logan to spar. Logan agreed to the spar and told her that he needed to retrieve his gear before hand. She said she'd find a spot to spar and they'll meet back in the bar when they are both ready. So, Logan went to the castle, retrieved his gear, and went back to the bar. Niah lead Logan out into the wild. Truthfully, Logan didn't really trust her at first. He thought this could've been a Kinshra ambush. But that was paranoia talking, as he found she was genuine in her spar. They sparred for a bit, and Logan nearly had her. But she fooled him and managed to topple him right before he was to win. He yielded, and she had won. Then, out of nowhere, she kissed Logan. This caught him totally off guard. For one, he's never kissed a girl before, and two, she was actually quite pretty. She was sat atop his breastplate as the two talked for quite a bit, before she kissed him once more and ran off into the woods. Logan wondered if he would ever see her again.

One day while Logan was on duty, he noticed the King and part of the royal family were out in the courtyard about to execute a prisoner. Logan observed, taking a break from his duties, and watched as the King went from going to kill him, to going to Knight him. He Knighted the prisoner and released him from the stocks, with everyone clapping and cheering. Just then, the King daringly sliced the prisoner-king's head clean off. Chaos abrupted in the courtyard, and Logan could only watch as the King fought off his own two sons and daughter. Eventually, one of his sons came out of nowhere and starting stabbing the King like mad! King Varian fell, and Logan watched the family gather round and mourn. This was all happening too fast for Logan, and all he could do was observe in shock. Logan recorded the time and date of the King's death just as a man, Sir Arthur, ordered Logan to retrieve people to take the body away and prepare a casket. Logan did just that and winded the day down with a quiet drink in the bar, listening to the townspeople talk of the slain King. Logan already knew it all. He was there.

The next day, Commander Kohtland introduced a new squire to Sir Logan just before he was getting ready to go off duty. Her name was Squire Ory'Hara. Commander Kohtland took the two up to the woods north of Falador and performed the duty of clearing the roadway from fallen trees. Afterwards, they rested by a fire and a lone traveler came by asking to speak to Commander Kohtland. She followed them back to the castle, where she spoke to the commander and Ory'Hara and Logan went off duty and chatted before sleeping.

Another mission for Logan, the next day Captain Stone and Logan were assigned to assist a group of TSG monks led by Lord Dion Magnan himself in retrieving a crystal ball stolen from the Wizards Tower. Captain Stone and Logan traveled south to St. Rimmington's Church where they met up with the monks who were just about to depart by ship from Port Sarim. Logan and Captain Stone went with them and endured a two day boat ride to a port in the Kingdom of Kandarin near the city of Ardougne. Logan had never been in Kandarin before and thought it to be a gloomy place- Probably because it was near Wintumber, so the snow was bound to fall soon. Lord Dion led the group through the outskirts of the city towards a tower about a kilometer out where the crystal orb was believed to be held. The more time Logan spent with this group of monks, the more he felt awkward. They almost acted as if they were automatons rather than humans- obeying every word Lord Dion said. Soon enough, after a quick camp outside the tower, the monks & Captain Stone and Logan busted in and confronted a single Zamorakian looking mage with a crystal orb. Lord Dion and the monks accused him of being the man that stole the crystal, but of course the man declined. They followed the man all the way to the top of the tower before they found he had jumped off in an attempt to commit suicide? Logan did not understand the reasoning, but never the less went down back outside the tower to check the man. He seemed to be still alive, and the orb was now in the monk's possesion. They returned to the port they came from and took another two day journey home, bringing the Zamorakian with them. In the end, when they returned to the church, they planned to execute the man. Logan objected, as did some of the other monks. But a few insisted along with Lord Dion, where they decapitated the Zamorakian and returned the orb to the Wizards' Tower. Logan thought it a barbaric act to kill the poor Zamorakian, especially so close to Wintumber. He couldn't help but feel bad for him as he and Captain Stone made their way back to Falador to call it an end of a mission.

One day while Logan was writing Wintumber cards in the barracks and Lianna was relaxing, Commander Kohtland came in telling them that he wanted them to attend a meeting with him. As they were getting ready, Commander Kohtland recieved word of a rouge Kinshra Captain attacking citizens and guards in Port Sarim. Commander Kohtland dispatched Logan and Lianna to fight the Kinshra Captain. This would be Logan's first real taste of combat. Logan and Lianna got ready in the barracks and then mounted horses prepared by squires in the courtyard. They rode a couple of hours to Port Sarim, where the Kinshra Captain was located. The town looked to be a ghost town, minus the many bodies lying around the streets and docks. Logan and Lianna searched for the Kinshra Captain, to eventually find him sharpening his sword on a bench on the docks. As Logan went to confront the Kinshra, he surprised Logan and shot a crossbow bolt directly for him. The bolt caught Logan off guard and pierced right through his upper arm, fortunately not damaging bone or severing any tendons. But it still hurt Logan quite a lot. However, the adrenaline nulled out a lot of the pain for the duration of the fight. Logan and Lianna fought off the Kinshra Captain who turned out to be quite a fight for their lives. He was obviously very trained, and heavily armored- as Logan's halberd failed to pierce through his armor with most blows. Eventually, they cornered the Kinshra Captain and he fell off the docks into the water where he started to drown. Logan decided to save the Kinshra much to Lianna's disapproval, and started to unstrip some of his armor. He went to dive into the water, but by the time he got to the Kinshra Captain he was unconcious. Never the less, Logan used the tide to assist pull him to shore. Once he was pulled to shore, Logan and Lianna began to undress the Kinshra Captain's armor. Logan began performing CPR, and succesfully revived the Kinshra Captain. As Lianna went to tie and secure the unconcious captain with Logan pointing a dagger to his throat, the Captain jump up to both of their surprise and forcefully used Logan's dagger to stab himself in throat, rendering him dead. This broke Logan for a little while as he just stared at the Kinshra Captain's body go lifeless. Logan had unintentionally ended a life. Lianna was enfuriated that Logan allowed him to die like that, but the growls and anger from Lianna was all drowned out to Logan. It felt as if time stopped, was quite a weird feeling... He didn't know what to think... But, eventually, Logan got up and retrieved his armor while Lianna cooled down. Logan's crossbow wound started to hurt more and more. Just as they were about to leave, and the Port Sarim Guard came to clean up, Commander Kohtland came to survery the damage. Logan reported the situation to Kohtland, and Kohtland helped ease Logan's mind pertaining to the killing. Lianna however did not like how they allowed him to die like a martyr. At the end of the day, Commander Kohtland led Logan and Lianna back to the castle in a cold rainstorm, and Logan recieved prompt medical attention pertaining to the crossbow bolt wound in his upper arm. The wound was succesfully treated with no complications, but it left quite a large scar. A scar to remind him of this day.

A week later, during an awards ceremony, Logan was promoted from Proselyte to Acolyte with yet another pay raise. He was now considered an Non-Commisioned Officer. He was also awarded the 'Asgarnian Defense Metal' for serving during an official state of war, 'Saradomin's Cuiricass' for being wounded in combat from the crossbow bolt to the arm the other week, and the 'Red Herald' for showing bravery in battle against the Kinshra Captain. He now officially considered himself a respectable Knight, as he finally earned his 'Red Herald' that prooved he had served in battle, despite it just being against one foe.

Acolyte[]

Soon after his promotion to Acolyte, the chapter of Knights was assigned another mission. This time, it was assigned by the Temple Knights to slay multiple Blue Dragons threatening travelers near Taverly out of the dungeon, and also to potentially pick up some blue hides for archer armor. Logan first thought the Commander was kidding. Like, seriously. They were never trained to take down dragons. To Logan's dismay, he found the Commander wasn't kidding and that they were really going to slay dragons. The Commander assured Logan that it wasn't quite as hard as it once was considering anti-dragonsheilds and potions now coming through. As long as they were to work as a team they should be alright. Commander Kohtlund gathered a Partisan, Comannder Vye, Logan, and Lianna. They were equipped with anti-dragonfire shields and potions, and off they went to march the two days to Taverly. The march was rather uneventful and only really consisted of walking and talking. Upon arrival to Taverly, the Druids greeted the five Knights and led them to the entrance of the dungeon, wishing them luck while granting a protection spell to provide better luck. They decsended down into the dark dungeon knowing the dangers they may face and valiantly navigated their way through towards the dragons. There was a little bit of fighting against skeletons and ghosts through the dark and twisted tunnels in the dungeon, but it was nothing they couldn't handle. Logan himself took down two skeletons. Along the way, a Skeleton came and ambushed the group, splitting Lianna and Logan up from the other three. Logan and Lianna killed the skeleton, but were lost in the dungeon as they were left behind. It was quite scary, and took them a litle while, but eventually they regrouped with the other three after making a few lucky guesses during twists and turns and listening for their comrade's movements. They continued their march towards the Blue Dragons to eventually find the lair. They charged the dragons at Commander Kohtlund's command, and a heavy fight ensued. Logan fought valiantly alongside his fellow knights, and after thirty minutes of destruction the Knights had to fall back out since the dragons were too strong. They regrouped outside the alcove with about eight hides, and most of the larger dragons slain which were three. Two still remained, but it was determined that they wouldn't cause much of a problem to travelers any longer. And they recieved the necessary amount of blue dragon hides the Temple Knights contracted them to retrieve. Although Logan did not have any glory moments and didn't really slay any dragons himself, only assisted- They took no casualties and made their way out of the dungeon. Once they emerged out of the dungeon, they marched their way back to Falador to call it the end of a mission.

Over the next few days at the Castle, Logan couldn't help but keep overhearing some of the officers and fellow enlisted speak word of a possible Crusade that's going to happen against the Menaphites in the Kharidian desert. Every once in a while he'd read about something of the sort in a Gielinor Times newspaper, but he didn't really think much of it. At least, he assumed that the White Knights wouldn't get involved. They weren't approached about it or anything as far as Logan knew. He did wonder, however. What have the Menaphites in the desert done wrong against Saradomin? Why would it need a Crusade? The more Logan thought about it, the more he got paranoid about it. By the end of a week, he was already hoping they weren't contacted to march to the Kharid.

Some time later, Logan was sent to the Rising Sun Inn to deal with a disturbance caused by two carolers. As he walked in, he noticed a broken bar tap and two masked men singing a muffled carol with a bell. Logan approached the two men and informed them that they were not allowed to carol in the Inn. However, the calmly responded saying that they had an official permit. Logan accepted that, however informed them that they need to mind the patrons, and if they do not wish to hear the carols then they must cease their singing. Afterwards, they left the bar in a hurry. Just as they left, it seemed piece by piece, the Inn was falling apart. Tables suddenly started to collapse, and a statue up on the second story balcony fell down to the grass. Logan first blamed it on Emily for failing to inspect the Inn, however she claimed it was refirbished not one week ago for Wintumber. Curiously, Logan pressed more into the issue just as a man in full red plate armor approached Logan, advising him that it was not safe in the bar. Logan informed the man that he was there to ensure the safety of the patrons. The man understood and offered to assist Logan, and Logan happily agreed. They've concluded after a table suddenly lashed out to them that the Inn was haunted. Logan told the red man that he was not equipped in banishing spirits. Fortunately, the man was. So the man took a gem and performed a very quick ritual which ultimately banished the spirit from the bar. Emily herself was a bit angry with Logan that he accused her, but Logan apologised and said his thanks to the man. He gave the red warrior his name, however the warrior claimed he had no name. So Logan called him Nameless Red Warrior, and told Emily that the damage would be payed for by the government. Logan returned to the castle after that situation was settled, telling the nameless red warrior that perhaps they meet again, they share a drink.

Temple Knights[]

Candidate[]

Late one night, a week before Wintumber, Logan was informed that his transfer into the Temple Knights finally went through and that he was to report to the Temple Knight's main compound

Logan's TK — Logan's knighting from White Knight to Temple Knight.

outside of Falador the following morning for a Knighting. It was all short notice, but Logan was more than eager to accept the knighting. He told his commanding officers, and they didn't seem happy. But no one was going to question the authority of the Temple Knights! So they signed Logan off the morning of and Logan went towards the Temple Knight compound in his formal uniform, where he was instructed to head to the chapel. Upon arrival to the chapel, three of the famous Temple Knight Commanders were standing in waiting. Commander Shaw Guiney, Commander Hayley Spears, and Commander Lux Lungwitz. He was addressed by Commander Hayley Spears herself to approach the altar, where he kneeled. Commander Spears, to his surprise, did the very knighting herself. It was a dream come true, to be knighted by one of his idols, as a Temple Knight. When he rose, the Commander seemed to show a little bit of emotion as she placed her hand onto his pauldron and started to tear up. He didn't know how to respond, so he just stood waiting to be dismissed. He was given a box of his new set of armor and was told to report to one of the scribe's offices, where he was to fill out a whole lot of scrollwork. He was told the date of his Temple Knight training as a Candidate would happen a day after Wintumber. The training, Logan knew, was extremely difficult with a 90% washout rate. He's talked to other Knights before that have went to the training and failed, so he knew what he was up for. Afterwards he was assigned his temporary lodging as a candidate within the compound, he was given a week off for Wintumber where he was to spend time with his family before being sent to Temple Knight training.

During Logan's time off, before he went to Temple Knight training, Logan met a man clad in dark armor in the Rising Sun. The man and Logan got along easily, ultimately becoming friends. Logan got to know the man as Drakarn, and Drakarn explained to Logan that he was a former Knight of Falador and the Round Table but retired after getting hurt during the Battle of Lumbridge. He claimed himself to be an adventurer and spent his time fulfilling bounties for local lords. He then offered to take Logan out to handle a bounty of the city of Falador in removing a new goblin camp that was dangerously close to the city. Logan figured he could use some training and action during his time off, so he agreed to tag along. Drakarn informed Logan that they were to deal with it the next morning, so Logan went home to catch a good night's sleep. The next morning, Logan went to where his lodging was at the Temple Knight Compound to retrieve his White Armor. He came back to the Rising Sun and met with Drakarn, where the two walked a few kilometers north to where the new village was located. Upon arrival to the village, Logan and Drakarn tried talking to the tribe leaders. Unfortunately, the tribe leaders could not be seen to be made for reason and the goblins started to attack the duo. Fortunately for Logan and Drakarn, their plate armor was superior to the goblins' weak and rusty weapons. Logan and Drakarn dealt with the goblins until most were either killed or ran away. Logan himself had slain four goblins. After the battle, and the village was cleared, Drakarn told Logan that he'd give most of the bounty to him as an early Wintumber present. Logan accepted it, and the two walked back to Falador where they departed, hoping to meet again one day.

The week up to Wintumber was filled with merryment and feast for Logan, celebrating Wintumber with both friends and family. Of course, due to his orders, he knew he had to attend the first day of Temple Knight selection the day of. So, Wintumber came and went. Logan had laid back on the alcohol that night, and the next morning he got up early, said his good-bye to his family once more, and went out towards the Temple Knight Compound where he was aquainted with the rest of his Candidate Class. His class of Temple Knight candidates was full with about 150 members, all Temple Knight hopefuls- most of which had plenty of White Knight experience. Logan got along with a couple of them during the first few days of processing, where most of it was just scrollwork, medical checks, background checks, and smoking from the soon-to-be drill instructors. Finally, at the end of the first week, after the new year, selection had officially started for Logan's Candidate Class. They were transported down towards the Southern Asgarnian wilderness where the first and second phase was held. Just on the first day, twenty of Logan's fellow candidates had dropped out. Logan, at times, felt as if he was ready to drop out too. He knew that the selection and training was hard, but he didn't know that it was nigh impossible. Day by day, Logan took the selection one step at a time. He knew it was only going to last for a few short months. The only break time Logan and the other candidates have really ever gotten was during mealtime, prayer, and rest. Which wasn't very often unless it was Sunday, in which case most of the day was spent for prayer. As the days went by, less and less candidates were showing up for training. A few got hurt, but the large majority dropped out by choice. Logan started to keep to himself, and whenever thoughts of quitting came to mind he simply flooded himself with prayers of Saradomin to get him through. He desparately wanted to become a Temple Knight, and he wouldn't let this selection process hinder his advancement. All in all, the selection consisted of three phases. Phases 1 & 2 focused on personal courage, land navigation, survival in the wilderness, teamwork, and general toughness. Logan knew this was just to weed out the weak and unworthy. By the time Logan reached phase 3, only 40 candidates remained including Logan. Phase 3 took place up in North Asgarnia and it's primary focus was cold weather survival and rough terrain through hilly and mountainous environments. All in all, selection took a total of three months. Three grueling and agonizing pain filled months that truly tested one's devotion to Saradomin and one's strength. It was the test to weed out the men from boys, women from girls. Logan had made it through the selection process with 31 others, and out of the 31 that made it through, only 25 including Logan were selected to begin their actual Temple Knight training. Logan, candidate #94, was awarded his golden trimmed white armor, officially promoted to Initiate, and began his career as a Temple Knight. His family watched him graduate from Temple Knight selection, and never had he seen his father so proud in his life. He felt like he's truly done something good, not only for his family and his lord Saradomin, but for Gielinor as a whole.
