Thayan knight

Thayan knights are the generals of the thayan armies, and protectors of The Red Wizards of Thay. They act as defenders of thayan enclaves all over Faerun, and personal bodyguards to Red Wizards. They are knights only by name, as they do not have any code of conduct. The only rule which they adhere to is that their life is of no importance, compared to the safety of the Red Wizards, whom they are sworn to protect.(Page 64 Lords of Darkness)
