. . . Yes. Necromancer and cavalier is the traditional partnership. Typically, a necromancer is powerless without thanergy to fuel their power. A cavalier fights with physical combat, and opens sources of death for the necromancer to use. A necromancer like myself, who is heir to one of the nine houses, would be aided by my House's cavalier primary. A position of historical prestige and honour.
Well, yes. That too, certainly. Though my cavalier lacked the 'shield' portion quite decisively. For the Ninth, the prestige of the post truly was only a historical matter.
