Oath of the Leader

some paladins swear an oath to lead others to victory. these paladins are selfless commanders willing to sacrifice themselves to save their own men if needed but they should not be in those situations if they are to be a good leader

Tenets of The Leader

Lead your men to victory or sacrifice yourself to let them survive: as a leader of others you must be willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to let those less fortunate survive no matter the cost to yourself. but you also must not let this happen and lead others to victory over their foes through strategy and skill unmatched.

Here I stand: you must never abandon those less fortunate and stand to defend everyone who is in need of it even if they are mindless beasts or evil aligned. if they are not deserving of their fate then you must protect them.

One being do not mean all: as a leader you can not judge others on what they are. everyone has a chance to prove themselves and to lead a good life so you must not judge them for their religion or others of their kind. treat everyone like they are your ally until proven wrong.
