Chivalry (skill)

Chivalry is a skill that may be thought of as having three distinct parts. The first part, Falconry, involves the raising, training, and use of falcons. To gain a falcon, go to a hatchery and type FALCON REQUEST. The second part of Chivalry is archery. By gaining the abilities to assess wind direction and speed and use different kinds of bows (longbows, crossbows, hornbows) you may attack from afar, or shoot at a cowardly opponent who has fled to the skies. The final part of Chivalry involves an assortment of aggressive abilities ranging from howling a Battlecry to Disemboweling your unlucky opponent.
