Highguard egregore
Escon
Escon is the Highguard Egregore. Escon has three primary interests; to embody the Imperial Faith and commitment to Virtue, to promote the martial spirit of the Highborn, and to expand the knowledge of the Nation. The spirit encourages competition, but as a means to the end of promoting and encouraging Highborn in the pursuit of excellence, rather than as an end in itself. Most of all, Escon encourages the Highborn to embrace their history and pursue Virtue with every part of their being.
In all aspects Escon wears a wide sash of braided black and white cloth, and is equally likely to manifest as male or female. Escon appears very much like a priest, hooded and wearing a robe – sometimes with armour but never with a weapon. Always his (or her) hair is covered, and the lower half of her (or his) face is covered with a thin veil of fine cloth.
Escon always tries to help people make up their own minds and come to their own conclusions, through careful questioning and encouragement to examine motivations, actions and beliefs. This is not done to demonstrate intellectual superiority, but rather to encourage the Highborn to develop their own powers of deductive reasoning. Escon is quite capable of making definitive statements when the situation demands it.
