Sovereign Military and Hospitaler Order of the Crossroads

An order originally founded in Liminal, the Hospitalers have since spread throughout most of the known world. Their distinctive arms (a simple field of white with a red X on it) are known as the mark of healers and defenders of the weak and sick. Their members are made up of all manner of folk, unified under the goals of the Order: to heal the sick and injured, to give succor to the hopeless and protection to the helpless. They maintain small hospitals, called Crossroads Houses, that are places of healing and charity for those in need. Their primary headquarters, Crossroads Keep, is located in the beseiged Empyros neighborhood of Liminal. They also used to maintain three other Crossroads Houses in the Hellsward, the upper Warrens and the Workman's Quintan, but these have all fallen.
