Candidates for any branch of the sergeantry are tested in all the skills of knighthood: arts, sciences, warfare, courtly manners, dancing, heraldry, bardic, and games.
They are generally in direct fealty (devotion and loyalty) to the Baroness of the branch for which they tested. Some Baronies have them in fealty to both the Baron and Baroness, and others have select categories (eg: Courtier) in fealty to the Baron.
- Sergeants : specializing in heavy weapon fighting.
- Gallants : specializing in rapier skills
- Yeomen : specializing in war/missile/archery skills
- Lancers : specializing in equestrian skills
- Courtiers : specializing in courtly/arts & science skills
In some Baronies, such as Adiantum, those who specialize in courtly, arts & science, or service skills are called Cohorts rather than Courtiers, and are in fealty to the Baron, rather than the Baroness. In Lions Gate, the Courtiers are a separate Order, sworn to the Baron. In Seagirt the equivalent order, specializing in arts & sciences, and sworn to the Baron, are called Scholars.
