    Default Re: A Paladin's Code

    I think my ideal paladin's code would look like something like this:

    Truth:Seek the truth in all things. Do not fall prey to preconceptions, convenient explanations or simple narratives.
    Justice: Protect the innocent. Prevent those that would harm others from doing so.
    Mercy: Never cause more than you must and spare all those that you can.
    Tenacity: Maintain your resolve in the face of the insurmountable. Have courage in the face of fear. Never lose sight of hope.
    Prudence: Do not be given to recklessness or allow your actions to be driven by zeal. Keep sight of your goals and focus on the proper path to them.
    Fairness: Treat others with respect and kindness. Never benefit your self at cost to another. Conduct yourself with honesty and transparency. Avoid deception.
    Humility:Recognize your limitations. Appreciate the contributions of others. Accept help as readily as you give it.
    Industry: Avoid Idleness. Find purpose for your every moment.

    Granted that's a rough sketch but I think those are more/less what I'd want as core values.
