Oath of Pride

The oath of Pride calls to the prideful paladins, the ones who do not want to be tied down to one pathetic God. Those who seek complete domination of their enemies, these paladins do not wish to stop at just setting up order like the oath of the conqueror. They must crush anyone who stands in their way on the path to becoming the greatest. Sometimes called Dark Templars or Devil knights. These paladins do not gather to orders or under gods instead they prefer to stay away from those weak philosophies.
