Oath of the Eternal Flame

The Oath of the Eternal Flame binds paladins to the unending passion that burns within them, a fervent fire that fuels their actions and creations. These paladins are artisans of the forge, creators of inspiration, and wielders of a relentless will. They stride into battle with the vigor of a blazing inferno, and their purpose is to bring balance and restoration to a world torn by chaos and destruction.

Tenets of the Eternal Flame

• Personal Justice: I am the arbiter of my own moral code, guided by an inner compass of righteousness. I act justly not for the sake of external judgment but to align with the values I hold dear.
• Boundless Legacy: I forge my mark upon the world, leaving behind a legacy of self-made greatness. My influence is not guided by the favor of distant deities, but by the strength of my character and deeds.
• Pride: I embrace my heritage and my personal identity, weaving them into an unbreakable tapestry of pride. My uniqueness empowers me, and I honor the strength that flows through my veins.
• Self-Emancipation: I break free from the chains of dependency, rejecting the notion of gods as puppet masters. I alone hold the reins of my destiny, liberated from the control of higher powers.
