17.14 The skill of Chivalry.

Chivalry is the Knightly ability in weapons, armour and combat. It is a specialist combat skill, involving the use of multiple weapons, the repairing of ones own armour, speed of combat and combat positions, and also a number of special abilities as you rise in Competence. Chivalry bestows not a growing range of pivotal knightly abilities but augments many of the melee skills (such as Swordplay and Fisticuffs and Defence) as mastery of the skill grows.
