Base Class: Paladin
Tenets of the Flamebearer:
- Ignite the Mind – Knowledge is the true fire. Seek wisdom, spread truth, and challenge ignorance wherever it is found.
- Defy Tyranny – No king, god, or force shall shackle the mind or body. Stand against oppression and fight for those who cannot fight for themselves.
- Sacrifice for the Future – True progress often requires suffering. Be willing to endure hardship so that others may thrive.
- Share the Fire – Hoarding power leads to corruption. Use your gifts to uplift others, not to control them.
