Oath of the Pack

Oath of The Pack

Paladins who follow this oath have transformed themselves, or have come in contact with a werewolf, that has changed them forever. They use their new found power and form packs that they lead. Other paladin orders see them as cursed beings, but those who have chosen to follow this oath see it as a blessing of the night, and lead those who fight alongside them to victory.

Tenets of the Pack

A paladin who takes on the Oath of the pack swears to lead his pack to victory.

  • Lead. Show those who fight besides you how to achieve victory in battle, lead them by example,

  • Strength in Numbers. Never fight alone, a pack is strong together. A lone wolf often finds themselves slain by those who hunt them.

  • Perseverance. You are only as strong as your willingness to survive, never give up, never falter.
