Oath of Knowledge

Few are those brave, honourable and wise enough to fully devout themselves to the pursuit of knowledge. These paladins take a holy oath to seek knowledge wherever it may be, to never deny others the knowledge they have acquired and to always use their knowledge for the betterment of the world, and all it’s citizens. You will find paladins of the oath of knowledge in the deepest and deadliest pits of the world, where not even the most valiant of sages dare venture. In ancient tombs home to mummies thousands of years old, in caverns home to powerful nagas, in long forgotten castles where dragons or giants lair and in the most hazardous ruins in the deepest reaches of the jungle, there is where you will find paladins who have sworn the oath of knowledge. For they believe that it is their holy duty to travel to those places and find the knowledge that no one else dare seek, so that the knowledge hidden there will not be lost to the world.
