Order of the Gauntlet

The Order of the Gauntlet is composed of faithful and vigilant seekers of justice who protect others from the depredations of evildoers. The organisation is Honorable, vigilant, and zealous. Clerics, monks, and paladins of good (and often lawful good) alignments are commonly drawn to the Order of the Gauntlet.
Goals • Be armed and vigilant against evil. • Identify evil threats such as secretive power groups and inherently evil creatures. • Enforce justice. • Enact retribution against evil actions—do not strike preemptively. Beliefs • Faith is the greatest weapon against evil—faith in one’s god, one’s friends, and one’s self. • Battling evil is an extraordinary task that requires extraordinary strength and bravery. • Punishing an evil act is just. Punishing an evil thought is not.
Member Traits The Order of the Gauntlet is a dedicated, tightly knit group of like-minded individuals driven by religious zeal or a finely-honed sense of justice and honor. Friendship and camaraderie are important to members of the order, and they share a trust and a bond normally reserved for siblings. Like highly motivated soldiers, members of the Order of the Gauntlet seek to become the best at what they do and look forward to testing their mettle. There are few, if any, “lone wolves” in this organization.
