The Lance Defenders were the core of Tymanther military forces, a highly trained army of dragonborn soldiers gathered from every clan, who were specialized in fighting with lances and other weapons, both on foot and in aerial combat, mounted on giant bats. Their primary task was to defend Djerad Thymar from dragon attacks, and, because of that, the Lance Barracks, their headquarters, was located in the highest place of the City-Bastion along with the Lance Roost that served as the giant bat stables.

  • The Lance Defenders were the core of Tymanther military forces, a highly trained army of dragonborn soldiers gathered from every clan, who were specialized in fighting with lances and other weapons, both on foot and in aerial combat, mounted on giant bats. Their primary task was to defend Djerad Thymar from dragon attacks, and, because of that, the Lance Barracks, their headquarters, was located in the highest place of the City-Bastion along with the Lance Roost that served as the giant bat stables. Although few thymari dragonborn had a knack for spellcasting, the Lance Defenders maintained a number of spellcasters among their ranks. Most dragonborn served in the Lance Defenders for two years, but only a small percentage remained after that period and became permanent soldiers. If a Lance Defender was able to get enough promotions, there was the possibility that he or she was deemed fit to be elected as a Vanquisher. Their giant bats were highly prized by the dragonborn, and only members of the Lance Defenders or important guests were permitted to use them, though they were exclusively for use of the Lance Defenders in wartime. Even though the giant bats were nocturnal creatures, they were also able to operate in daytime. A minority of Lance Defenders were selected to become Lance Scouts. As elite members of the military, the Lance Scouts were trained to work as part of small groups or alone and were tasked to travel beyond Tymanther's borders and learn more about Faerûn. Lance Scouts were also expected to track movements of potentially dangerous dragons around the realms.
