Hoplites are magi who, for whatever personal motivation, dedicate themselves to the enforcement of the Code of Hermes. Hoplites are not necessarily quaesitores; rather, they either support the latter, or operate completely independently. While quaesitores are usually (though not necessarily) members of House Guernicus, a practicing hoplite may belong to any House. However, since the enforcement of the Code matter-of-factly requires considerable feats of assertiveness and martial prowess (magical and/or otherwise), members of the more straight-forward Houses, such as House Flambeau, form the majority of the hoplites' ranks. Some hoplites make a name for themselves by readily taking part in Marches against renegade wizards.
