-'''Standard bearer''' is an [[Knowledge Points|amateur]]-status [[Sage Ability|sage ability]] in the studies of [[Empowerment (sage study)|Empowerment]] and [[Heraldry, Signs & Sigils (sage study)|Heraldry, Signs & Sigils]], that empowers the bearer of a military standard to increase the [[Attacking in Combat|attack die]] of other allied combatants by +1 [[Roll to Hit|to hit]], so long as they're within 60 ft., or 12 [[Combat Hex|combat hexes]], of the bearer.
+'''Standard Bearer''' is an [[Knowledge Points|amateur]]-status [[Sage Ability|sage ability]] within the [[Empowerment (sage study)|Empowerment]] and [[Heraldry, Signs & Sigils (sage study)|Heraldry, Signs & Sigils]] studies. This ability grants the bearer of a military standard the power to bolster their allies in combat, both physically and mentally. While the standard is raised, all friendly combatants within 60 feet (12 [[Combat Hex|combat hexes]]) gain a +1 bonus to their [[Attacking in Combat|attack die]], improving their chance to strike their enemies.
-The standard also provides a +1 morale to any allies, who see the standard and take it as a sign that their side is holding firm in a fight.  Armies often have dozens of standard bearers for this purpose.
+A standard bearer's role is demanding. While they are free to wear [[Armour Class|armour]], they must dedicate both hands to holding and waving the standard in battle. In addition, they must continuously shout encouragement to their allies, preventing them from engaging in other speech or actions beyond forward movement. If mounted, the bearer must control their horse one-handed, requiring significant [[Horse Handling I (sage ability)|riding skill]] to maintain balance and effectiveness.
-== Responsibilities ==
+Should the standard bearer falter, the benefits granted by the standard are immediately lost. If the bearer retreats or is pushed back, the morale and attack bonuses vanish until they are able to stop and re-establish their ground. Because of this, standard bearers must be resilient, determined and willing to stand firm even in the face of danger.
-If a standard bearer retreats or gives ground against an enemy, benefits offered by the standard to others are lost, until the standard bearer stops again and hold his or her ground.
+== Strategy Against ==
