Oath Of The Elders

The Oath of the Great Old Ones call to all that seek the Ancient Eldritch Lords. Dark lords forgotten through time those who seek power through servitude to these Ancient beings they may grant power they will always hunger power they will never receive from their benevolent masters. Paladins who swear this Oath stand against all those who deny them and their master this power and their servitude. Such Paladins believe power over anything but the Ancients over all. These Paladins can often be found trying to do whatever they can to please their Lords from knowledge, power, wealth, domain and servitude. They answer the call of the old ones to regain dominion over this realm they had so long ago.
