Usually in Atlantia if someone is wearing a gold chain and a white belt, they
are most likely a Knight. I think the belts are a white leather but I think
woven white belts are fine because I think the knight belts have a gold tip
on the end. I have a gold chain that has a medallion and no one seems to have
a problem with that.
