The Red Knight was worshiped by generals, tacticians, lawful-minded warriors and paladins alike.Ĭlerics of the Red Knight, or “holy strategists,” prayed for their spells at night before sleeping to prepare for the next day. Her symbol was a red ‘knight’ chess piece with stars for eyes.
Her dogma dictated the use of careful tactics in battle to achieve victory, under the belief that sound strategy was the best way to win a battle with the most favorable outcome. The Red Knight, or the Lady of Strategy, was the Faerûnian deity of strategy and battle tactics and an exarch of Tempus.
