The kingdom, later empire, of [[Grannvale]] commanded as part of its armies a series of elite knight brigades. Six of these brigades are known, associated with the capital and five of the six dukedoms. Most of the brigades were specifically associated with a weapon type in which they collectively specialised. While it is probable that the dukedom of [[Edda]] also had its own knight brigade in the vein of the others, it never appeared.

==Collective history==
In the year 757, Grannvale declared war on the northern nation of [[Isaach]] after forces from Rivough attacked [[Darna]]. Under the command of Grannvale's Prince [[Kurth]], the majority of Grannvale's army set out for Isaach; among them was Duke [[Vylon]]'s Grün Ritter, Duke [[Ring]]'s Beige Ritter, and Duke [[Langobalt]]'s Grau Ritter. Following Isaach's defeat in the war, as part of a conspiracy with Dukes [[Reptor]] and (supposedly) [[Arvis]], Langobalt turned on Kurth and killed him, framing Vylon and his son [[Sigurd]] for the crime, and obliterating the Grün Ritter in his efforts to arrest Vylon; at this time, Ring's son [[Andorey]] killed his father and assumed the role of Duke of [[Jungby]] and command of the Beige Ritter. When Langobalt and Reptor led their forces to [[Agustria]] to arrest Sigurd, Sigurd instead fled to [[Silesse]] and remained in hiding there for a year, until Grannvale's forces overtook Silesse's Lubeck Castle in preparation to invade Silesse and capture him. In response, Sigurd led his army out of Silesse and defeated Langobalt and Reptor's armies, but was soon after executed by Arvis' Rot Ritter of Velthomer, an event known as the [[Battle of Belhalla]].
In the year 757, Grannvale declared war on the northern nation of [[Isaach]] after forces from Ribaut attacked [[Dahna]]. Under the command of Grannvale's Prince [[Kurth]], the majority of Grannvale's army set out for Isaach; among them was Duke [[Byron]]'s Grünritter, Duke [[Ring]]'s Beige Ritter, and Duke [[Lombard]]'s Grau Ritter. Following Isaach's defeat in the war, as part of a conspiracy with Dukes [[Reptor]] and (supposedly) [[Arvis]], Lombard turned on Kurth and killed him, framing Byron and his son [[Sigurd]] for the crime, and obliterating the Grünritter in his efforts to arrest Byron; at this time, Ring's son [[Andrey]] killed his father and assumed the role of Duke of [[Yngvi]] and command of the Beige Ritter. When Lombard and Reptor led their forces to [[Agustria]] to arrest Sigurd, Sigurd instead fled to [[Silesse]] and remained in hiding there for a year, until Grannvale's forces overtook Silesse's Lubeck Castle in preparation to invade Silesse and capture him. In response, Sigurd led his army out of Silesse and defeated Lombard and Reptor's armies, but was soon after executed by Arvis' Rot Ritter of Velthomer, an event known as the [[Battle of Belhalla]].


With the deaths of everyone opposing him, Arvis became the emperor of Grannvale, now an empire, and successfully subdued most of the [[Jugdral]] nations, placing them under Grannvaleian rule under the administration of the Grannvale noble houses. Seventeen years later, Sigurd's son [[Seliph]] formed a liberation army in the [[Dozel]]-controlled Isaach, which stormed through Isaach, the [[Manster District]] and [[Miletos]], and freed the countries from the Grannvale rule. From Miletos, he set his sights on Grannvale itself, crossing the Miletos Channel to defeat Arvis' Rot Ritter and reclaim [[Chalphy]]. With Chalphy secured, Seliph's army charged Grannvale, opposed by the Grau Ritter under [[Scopio]], the Gelb Ritter under [[Hilda]], the Beige Ritter under [[Scopio]] and the Weiss Ritter under [[Ishtar]]. All three brigades fell to Seliph's army, as did the [[Loptyr (dragon)|Loptyr]]-possessed Imperial Prince [[Julius]], and Seliph successfully reclaimed Grannvale and freed the world from its oppression.

The ({{hover|ヴァイスリッター|Vaisurittā}} ''Weiß Ritter'') was the knight brigade of [[Belhalla]], the capital of Grannvale and seat of its king/emperor.  This brigade comprised the nation's royal guard, tasked with the defense of the capital and its king.  Unlike the other brigades, it appears that Weiß Ritter was never directly led by the head of the respective house, with the task seemingly delegated to other members of the Grannvale nobility.


During the war with Isaach, [[Arvis]] of [[Velthomer]] had been entrusted with the command of the Weiß Ritter, to protect King [[Azmur]]. Twenty years later, command of the Weiß Ritter was in the hands of [[Ishtar]] of [[Freege]], fiancée to Prince [[Julius]]. At the height of the final confrontation with Seliph's liberation army, following the downfall of Freege, Ishtar led the Weiß Ritter from Belhalla to confront the enemy, but the Weiß Ritter were defeated.

The ({{hover|グラオリッター|Guraorittā}} ''Grau Ritter'') was the knight brigade of [[Dozel]], comprised of mounted [[axe]]-wielding knights. Under the leadership of Duke [[Langobalt]] during the Isaach war, the Grau Ritter were used to decimate the Chalphy Grün Ritter when Langobalt turned on Kurth and Vylon. After this, they were placed under the command of Langobalt's son [[Danan]] to subdue an uprising in Isaach following its defeat in the war, and much to Langobalt's frustration they were away too long to reinforce him against Sigurd's army at Lubeck<ref>{{Cite|Damn it.

At some point in the seventeen years afterward, the Grau Ritter were placed under the command of Danan's own son [[Burian]], and were eventually stationed in Grannvale in preparation for Seliph's approaching liberation army. Burian led the Grau Ritter in a charge against Chalphy Castle following Seliph's reclamation of Edda, a charge which failed and resulted in the defeat of the Grau Ritter.

The ({{hover|バイゲリッター|Baigerittā}} ''Beige Ritter'') was the knight brigade of [[Jungby]], comprised of elite [[Bow (weapon)|mounted archers]]. In the war with Isaach, the Beige Ritter were led by then-Duke [[Ring]]. Following Ring's murder, command of the Beige Ritter was assumed by his son [[Andorey]], the murderer. Andorey led the Beige Ritter first to [[Silesse]] to assist [[Daccar]] in attempting to overthrow Queen [[Rahna]], and the brigade was responsible for killing [[Mahnya]] of the [[Four Angelic Knights]]; once Silesse Castle had been seized for Daccar, the Beige Ritter pulled out of Silesse. Shortly afterward, the Beige Ritter assisted Langobalt in defending Lubeck Castle from Sigurd's return to Grannvale, but were annihilated.

In the war with Isaach, the Beige Ritter were led by then-Duke [[Ring]]. Following Ring's murder, command of the Beige Ritter was assumed by his son [[Andrey]], the murderer.

Shortly afterward, the Beige Ritter assisted Lombard in defending Lubeck Castle from Sigurd's return to Grannvale, but were annihilated.


By [[The Final Holy War|eighteen years later]], the Beige Ritter had been reformed, now serving Andorey's son [[Scopio]]. In the final confrontation with Seliph's revolution army, Scopio was tasked by Hilda with ambushing the army from its rear while it travelled to Freege. In this attempt, Seliph's army fought back and the Beige Ritter was again annihilated.
By [[End of the Holy War|eighteen years later]], the Beige Ritter had been reformed, now serving Andrey's son [[Scipio]]. In the final confrontation with Seliph's revolution army, Scipio was tasked by Hilda with ambushing the army from its rear while it travelled to Friege. In this attempt, Seliph's army fought back and the Beige Ritter was again annihilated.

The katakana transcription of ''{{lang|de|beige}}'' is inaccurate to the actual German pronunciation; the German word is pronounced irregularly (due to imitating the French pronunciation), but the Japanese name of this knight brigade transcribes ''{{lang|de|beige}}'' into katakana as if it were pronounced as spelled.
