The Holy Order of the Armored Goats is the defense force used by the Pentheral State of Athlon. It operates under the direct command of the Pentheros of the Dozan Bovic Church. Practically, however, it is limited to ceremonial and coastal patrol duties most of the time. It was originally founded prior to 1530 as the personal guard of Nathan Waffel-Paine, who used the private army to invade Lovelian Psycotia now the islands of Athlon during the War of Matbaic Liberation, without requiring Natopian oversight. The Naval Phalanx of the Holy Order also served with distinction during the Euran War, where Neoptolemus endured martyrdom whilst engaged against the Jing fleet, and contributed to the defense of Naya Island during the War of Lost Brothers.
Pentheral Militia
The Pentheral Militia is the primary armed land force of the State. As an armed force, it operates mainly within Athlon. Outside of Athlon its members provide security for Church leaders. Elements of the Guard are assigned to the Naval Phalanx as marines during expeditionary missions.
The Naval Phalanx consists of several surplus vessels and aircraft purchased from Natopia. It provides coastal defense and support, but can operate as a blue-water navy when sufficiently mobilized.
