Base Class: Paladin
We someone becomes a watcher they leave behind friends, bloodlines, and even what they are. Taking the oath of the watcher is not a small task, before you become a full member a watcher must spend 3 years alone, traveling, helping and keeping the balance. once completing the 3 year pilgrimage, they take a new name, only one. A watcher does take a last name to show they're cutting off all ties as well as not passing on any linage. The watchers walk the line between Order and Chaos, choosing the path keeps the realm falling to far to either side. Believing to be beyond good or evil.
The witching hour chimes, and now my duty begins. It shall not end until my last breath.
I shall take no love, hold no lands, pass no name. I shall hold no thrones nor conquest for glory.
I shall live and die a watcher. I am the shield of equilibrium. I am the guardian in the shadows.
I am the sword that brings balance the realms of men. I pledge my life and faith to the Watchers of Ordro on this day and all the days to come.
