Knights

In England the idea of knighthood was introduced by the Normans in 1066.

Knighthoods are still bestowed today

Yes. It is completely Free to play, although paying for aspects of the game does allow for quicker progression and certain other benefits, otherwise you can access all of the game's core material without paying. For some side-'goodies', some payment MAY be required.

Otherwise, F2P.

Knights were landed gentry of the dark ages who were rewarded for their service to the king by land. That land contained villains (commoners) who were tithed (servents of) to the knight of the manor. The villains worked on the land for the knight and the sale of the crops made the Knight money.

Also during times of war they were allowed by the king to take bounty from the victories that they were instrumental in.

Members of the royalty and nobility often became knights, but they were not the only ones. In fact, most knights were commoners.

Remember, however that most members of the nobility were commoners. Anyone who was not royal, a peer, or the heir apparent of a peer was a commoner, so the younger son of a duke was a commoner. Since anyone who had a manorial estate, or in the family of such a person, was considered a member of the nobility, there were many commoners who were of the nobility. Knighthood itself was a rank of nobility.

Most knights were the younger sons of nobility, trained over a long period by a knight. But the business of choosing who was to be trained was up to the knight, and no one was technically excluded on the basis of class. There were a number of boys who were accepted to be pages and squires who were sons of merchants or scholars. There was no law I am aware of, aside from custom, that prevented a knight from accepting the son of a serf as a page. In fact, the word knight derives from a Germanic word meaning boy or servant.

Additionally, the creation of a knight was discretionary on the part of a monarch. Knighthood could be conferred on a person who was not trained to be a knight at all. There are many instances recorded of such practice, and there were orders of knighthood made up of people who were chosen entirely on the basis of performance in battle or even on the basis of acts of mercy not connected with military situations.

One order of knighthood in Catalonia, called the Order of the Hatchet, was made up entirely of women who had fought in a battle, regardless of rank. The women had all the privileges of knights.

The serfs would serve the knights which were given a land along with it's population in exchange for their military service. It's a medieval system known as Feudalism.

You would have to attend Knight school which is ironically during the day

Being knight-like or helping a lady.

The husband and wife first realize the presence of the two strangers only when they enter and speak.

The queen/king has to knight you.

Well, this would be dependent on a few things, some of these include...

1. Who made it? If it was one of the more note worthy smiths, then it would have tended to be much more expensve

2. Where were the materials from? The better quality materials to make the armour would usually lead to a price increase

3. Who was buying it? If they were buying from a family member, vassal, or etc, then the price might be considerably cheaper.

All of that considered, really only the noble classes were able to afford full suits of plate armour, someone of a lower class could work their entire life and save what they could, and still probably not be able to afford it.

Off topic, but in case you're curious, lower classes would usually use mail, which was cheaper to buy.

Further off topic, a suit of plate armour today would cost you anywhere between 3K and 16K

Only a knight may engage another knight in one to one combat (on the field of battle);

Chevalier is the French word for "knight". Knights were usually aristocrats, and it was pretty common for the Norman aristocracy in England to speak French.

You'll note a certain similarity to the words "chivalry" and "cavalry".

In the olden days it was used for entertainment.

Arms were registered so that no two people would have the same arms.

* Humility
* Honor

I'm guessing it's the spacing between the panels of his armour.

Arrows and pointy blades could get trough there easily.

most medieval armor was made from iron, wood, copper, steel, and leather. the main metal armor was made from steel and iron. sometimes the shields were made of wood and coated with metal.
