[QUOTE="Malin Genie, post: 81312, member: 1058"] To be Human is the greatest gift and greatest responsibility. On the Paladin's shoulders rests the duty of exemplifying the true virtues of humanity, and turning away from all that would debase it. A Paladin will seek to redeem those humans who struggle to maintain righteous behaviour, but mercilessly destroy those humans who unrepentantly draw others into evil. A Paladin seeks to rule over the lesser races with benevolent strictness, as the farmer rules over the animals in the field. To show disdainful arrogance and look down on other races is to be a deceitful Elf; to show closed-minded suspicion and look away from other races is to be a grasping Dwarf. To guide those of all other races wisely - but sternly - is our highest destiny. A Paladin should not forget that the lesser races were created to serve humans, and that those who rebel against that duty require just punishment. Those who advocate rebellion against humanity are taint, and as diseased cattle aare destroyed to protect the herd, so are rebels. A Paladin always acts and speaks straightforwardly. To play false is to make a mockery of Humanity. A Paladin should exemplify flexibility, as the gift that has brought human dominion over much of the world. The Toad is our symbol, who lives on earth and in water, and the Hopping Prophet the bearer of his message. "Litany of the Paladins of Wastri" [/QUOTE]
