Joining Information
Runehand says, "You're interested, too, eh? Me too. First, let me tell you a little about the Equites, so you can make an informed decision." in Anglic. Runehand says, "Serpentina, as you know, was our patron sorceress. She had quite a storied history, but decided to devote well over a century to building and protecting Corna, here. She was very mysterious -- even up to the moment of her disappearance. I only had the chance to study with her for a few months; I was her last apprentice. Almost everything I know how to do I learned from her." in Anglic. Runehand says, "Part of her researches was devoted to finding magicks to help better defend ourselves. She knew a few powerful spells of the sort that would fry someone where they stood, but mostly she was interested in enchantment. The Dragonsabre of Serpente was one result of those enchantments. Staves of the elements were another. But her most useful invention -- yes, even more useful than the Dragonsabre -- was discovering an enchantment that imparted a faculty for horse-bonding upon its bearer." in Anglic. Runehand says, "This bond is similar to those employed by the daanan, and some of the witches of the northeast. But she honed it specifically for her purposes. She needed competent agents and military leaders to help her stave off the threats of her time. So she shaped the bond for horses, and not just any horses, but a kind of horse that she herself helped to breed: warhorses of an exceptionally powerful stock." in Anglic. Runehand says, "She had an entire private cavalry of men augmented in their logistical and military prowess by her own magicks. They became enormously competent, and formed a sort of inner circle of advisors for her. But when she vanished, they disbanded. In fact, heh, most of them went insane. Anyway..." in Anglic. Runehand says, "The point being! I have rediscovered her technique! Her technique for enchanting persons with the ability to bond our warhorses. I've been using it on a select few of our Steel Serpents. I learned it by reading a scroll of hers, a scroll so potent that I can still detect some of her magickal essence within it. So I've been calling the method of bonding "Serpentina's echo"." in Anglic. Runehand asks you, "So that's basically it. In exchange for more of a commitment to aiding Corna, I am willing to give you the ability to bond one of our war-horses, and become an unmatched rider. What do you think?" in Anglic.
Joining Requirements

If you want to become an Equite, you'll be spending a lot of time defending the people here. Indeed, you may even give your life to defend them. It's better for Corna and better for you if you familiarize yourself with the concerns of the townsfolk." to you

Runehand says, "Seems like you're up to par! Okay then." Runehand cracks his knuckles and then closes his eyes in concentration for a long moment. You feel a strange new desire beginning to stir deep within your psyche. Runehand says, "Right! Head to the Steel Serpents' barracks and pick yourself out a horse. Just pet the one you like best.

You sense a new emotional need opening up within you -- an incompleteness you never fully grasped, the need for a true soulmate of some kind -- along with the desire and ability to fulfill that need and to complete yourself.

Empathic bond to Warhorse
The horse they bond to are known as Cornan Des Triers. Or more commonly known as warhorses or chargers. They seem a little more sturdy than regular horse bonds and have sovereignty over the other horse races (excluding the pegasus I believe). They provide the following charms:
