Oath of the Priest Gears

Great warriors who have fallen in combat and retrieved by Gear Priests and are laid before the P.R.I.M.U.S. Thanks to a small semblance of power, the warrior is restructured and given powerful mechanical gauntlets to aid the P.R.I.M.U.S. in "repairing" Erenel.

Paladins who swear an oath to the PRIMUS devote themselves to the following tenets. 

Defend the PRIMUS

The resting place of the sentient construct, PRIMUS is constantly threatened by denizens of this plane and others. Strive to help those who protect the otherworldly construct until it can fully reawaken.

Await the Truth

All who server the PRIMUS await its reawakening to learn its secrets from beyond the stars. Gear priests must not jump to conclusions and suspend all judgement until they have uncovered the sentient beings truth

The Gods are Liars

The revelation of the PRIMUS has shown you that the deities of Erenel are false prophets. You will never accept a religion founded upon their lies.
