Knight Errants are sons of nobles, wether rich or poor, who join battle for glory and to gain honour and recognition. They are rich enough to own a horse as well as equipment, usually a lance, a sword, a shield, as well as a suit of chainmail or some armour of similar worth. Unlike Knights of the Realm however, they do not own any land at all, and have not sworn any kind of direct alligience to a Baron or Earl.

On the battlefield, they tend to be rather impetious and arrogant, eager to prove their worth to their superiors so that they might one day earn the title of knight, as well as a piece of land and peasants to work it.
