SQUIRES
The squires guild is not really a true guild to be joined. It is an intermediate stage of development that a paladin to be character takes. About halfway through their paladin training, the character gets the opportunity to do a quest which upgrades them to the squires guild. This gives them extra skills. The choice in skills is such that if they fail in their endevour to become a paladin, there are no skills that they have that the rangers or fighters guild do not have. So there is no need to remove any hard trained skills from them.
