Oath of the Breaker (HB)

The Oath of the Breaker is sometimes seen in the same light as the Paladins of Conquest, Armored Knights of Forge Deities who use the blessings of their Gods to dominate the battlefield with control over flame and metal. Sometimes known as Iron Breakers they have a reputation of being a cleansing flame that no steel can stand against. 

Paladin's which begin their path usually hail from the fortress monasteries and churches of gods like Moradin and Gond, Wearing armour crafted in the halls of their gods and wielding carbon scorched blades that perpetually glow with embers. Legends say that Iron Breakers will ritualistically collect the metal equipment of fallen foes to be reforged into trophies of past battles, the memories of their fallen foes forged into their ongoing legend.

TENETS OF THE BREAKER

The Tenents of the Breaker are typically forged into their Arms and Armor for all to see.

Be the Ashen Wake. You are a weapon, forged and tempered. None shall stand in your way.

If they Stood, They are Sacred. Having the strength to lift the sword is a scared act, and deserves respect.

Virtue is a Wall of Brass. The Breakers will always stand by their Morals, Cracked steel is no longer strong.
