From what I've understood out of the meaning to be a DRK, I know they can have mentors or people who can teach them more of the dark arts. What I was curious though was, can they have someone they serve or swear their sword to without it conflicting the purpose of a DRK?
So, dark knight's I understand are just like batman. They serve justice to the highest authority that's supposed to protect in the first place. A punisher to the punishers so to speak. They are beholden to no titles or ranks, or etc, and simply serve justice through their own heart or at least what they deem as justice through their own morality. When I thought about this, I questioned if one could serve as a bodyguard or as someone's personal knight to some degree? The only loop I find around this is if the person they're working for has the same conviction they do and they would pledge to it for a greater good (or at least, what they think would be for the greater good). Otherwise, I'm having trouble seeing another way around the idea for a dark knight to serve a higher authority when they're self proclaimed to be their own.
