Knight Lieutenant

A Knight Lieutenant was a Seated Knight selected by the Captain of his/her Company to become the captain's assistant and second in command.

Overview
The Knight Lieutenant managed the day to day affairs of the captain and ensured that matters of importance came to his attention. In return, the Knight Captain finalized the Knight Lieutenant's training and prepared him for taking the the role of Knight Captain. If a Knight Captain was killed or otherwise unable to fulfill his duties, it would fall to the Lieutenant to act in the captain's stead.
