Chivalry was the code of honor among the nobility in the late Middle Ages, and today the code of chivalry is closely linked with knighthood. Medieval notions of "chivalry" had some important differences from how we think of "chivalry" today, though. For instance, chief among the medieval tenants of chivalry was loyalty to one's liege-lord (this was essential to the feudal system in medieval society), but some of the more romantic notions, such as a man draping his cloak over a mud puddle for a lady to walk over, were unheard of and would have been considered totally absurd back then.

The hero code was very similar between all three. All of them believed they were to help others and kill those that were considered evil or bad people.
