[[Thomas Aquinas]] was - and in my opinion still is - the pre-eminent [[Catholic]] [[theologian]]. If you've got a persona that would even be vaguely interested in such things, a brief look at the Summa on topics like [http://www.newadvent.org/summa/304001.htm Just War and Tournaments] is probably in order.

Anyone interested in [[Knight]]hood (or for that matter, any of the [[Peer]]ages) could in my view do worse than have a look through the Second Part of the Second Part of the Summa, and see what Aquinas had to say about various virtues and vices.
