Tenets of Faith

Have a plan or strategy for every scenario, no matter how unlikely. Give thought to every scenario, and never be caught unprepared.
 
Protect and defend the defenseless and those in need regardless of your bias or opinion. Every creature has a right to be defended and protected.
 
Never give into anger or fury, and never go on a reckless offensive. Be brave and step boldly into danger but temper it with a cool head.
 
Defend what is right, do what is honorable, and be a figure who engenders great respect in others. Keep your agreements and fulfill your obligations.
 
Better yourself with study, and reinforce your mind with the knowledge of the architecture and mathematics of warfare. Knowledge is the greatest weapon of war.
 
Ensure no creature who dies does so in vain. Never allow yourself or another creature to take their own life.
