Oath of Lore Keeping (TESTING)

The Oath of Lore Keeping is taken by paladins who devote their lives to keeping the weave in check and the use of magic in order. Known as tome knights or wizards bane, paladins who swear this oath swear to protect the order of the weave by insuring powerful magics are in the hands of those who will use them for the betterment of man or sealed away. These paladins will seek out magical items for safe keeping or target wizards they believe to be a threat. This order usually decorates themselves in runes and tattoos of texts. 

Tenets of Lore Keeping

• Responsibility of Magic: Magic is a supernatural force that gives us legendary abilities; it must be used responsibly and only for good.  Magic must never be used to hurt the innocent.
• Unveil The Arcane: The more you understand about how magic works, the better. Make every effort to uncover and protect the mysteries of the weave.
• For the betterment of man: Magic shouldn't be used for selfish needs but for the betterment of society, hording magics under selfish precedents will lead to the downfall of man.
