I'm thinking of making an LE Order of the Lion cavalier as a PC or NPC.
From a Golarion setting perspective, is there any reason why I can't pick Queen Abrogail Thrune II as my sovereign?
Here's the Order of the Lion edict:
"The cavalier must protect the life and lands of his sovereign at all costs. He must obey the commands of his sovereign without question. He must strive to expand the power and prestige of his realm."
1) What would "protecting the lands of his sovereign" mean in this case? Just opposing anyone who threatens the sovereignty or stability of Cheliax?
2) What would be the standing orders of Abrogail be? Would he just be pledged to obey the hierarchy of Cheliax and any orders from House Thrune?
3) How could one "expand the power and prestige" of Cheliax?
4) Any tips for making my cavalier seem nasty, oppressive or hellish?
