Symbol: The Sisters of Battle are part of the Stratos Empire, and therefore use the empire's flag.
Background: The Sisters of Battle were created via prince Alex's attempt to get more females into the military. He decided that since lots of girls show up for the horse festivals and seem to enjoy riding horses, to attempt to train them as cavalry units. Since then the Sisters have grown into one of the deadliest parts of the empire, using their legendary "Fuurinkazan" attacks to rout entire legions of foot soldiers, and then continue to rout the units behind them.
Type: Fighting Company
Scale: 10
Affiliation Score Criteria: The Sisters of Battle were created to get more females into the military, so only females are allowed to join. In addition due to using mainly horses, people may get rejected if they are too heavy to use as effective mounted units.

4-14: Younger Sisters: Receives 100 gp a month as pay. May be deployed into battle.
15-22: Middle Sisters: Receives Ride by attack as a bonus feat, if you already have this feat you may take another feat related to mounted combat (usually trample)

30: Fuurinkazan: If you drop an opponent with a ride-by-attack, you may continue your charge and attack again assuming another opponent is within reach. This attack uses the same bonuses and penalties as the attack that dropped the first opponent.

Any suggestions and comments are welcome.

Edit: This really should be in homebrew now that I think about it. Can I get this moved?
