They are lead by Wynn Flashond. He does not run Med Corp but rather is the leader of the Knights of the Silver Dragon. He is not generally considered the ruler of Tacoma, but it is clear that he has a significant influence over the manner in which the city is run. With the rise of Corporatocracy, they used a corporation (Med Corp) that one of their members (Eadric Archer) owned to lay claim to Tacoma. Med Corp has been controlled by the Archer family since it was established. The founder of the company was named Eadric Archer and after taking control of Tacoma, he established the tradition of naming the first born son Eadric Archer and passing the company to them. Members of the Knighthood are dedicated body and soul to the cause of good and protecting the innocent.Moderate DC 15
During the Dark Ages, the Knights of the Silver Dragon was an order of monks in Ireland. In the Middle Ages, it was a knightly order in France. During the Enlightenment, it was a Masonic brotherhood in England. In the American colonies, it was a band of rebels on the frontier. The Knights are organized into cells, each responsible for reporting back to Wynn about current goings on in their local Shadow communities. There are cells established all over the United States.Hard DC 20
During The Era Of Anarchy, they were an elite unit of soldiers that protected the people and ensured that they were provided for. They worked primarily within the Tacoma area.

In The Democratic Era, it was a secret organization that knew all about the ways of Shadow and has sworn to protect all innocent and good creatures no matter where they come from.
