The Order of the Gauntlet stands as one of the Sword Coast's most aggressive forces for good. Founded in 1484 DR, this coalition of paladins, clerics, and holy warriors believes evil must be opposed immediately and decisively—no debates, no delays, just righteousness and steel.
What You'll Learn:
• The Order's founding in Elturel and their philosophy of action over deliberation
• Key figures: Ontharr Frume (dwarf paladin of Torm) and Leosin Erlanthar (half-elf monk)
• Their campaign against the Cult of the Dragon
• How they differ from the Harpers, Lords' Alliance, and other factions
• Their structure, operations, and the famous Pair of Black Antlers tavern
• Why they refuse to wait for evil to act first
Core Philosophy: Faith without action is just philosophy—and philosophy doesn't stop blades.
The Order operates through decentralized chapters across the Sword Coast, from their base in Elturel to outposts like Hawk's Nest in the Silver Marches. They venerate deities of justice and protection: Torm, Helm, Tyr, and Hoar.
Perfect for D&D players looking to join the Order of the Gauntlet in campaigns like Hoard of the Dragon Queen, Rise of Tiamat, Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus, or any Sword Coast adventure.
