Regula Magistri Boreas

Regula Magistri

Chapter I | Purpose and Basis of Common Life

Before all else, brothers, follow the Wind Lord of the North and then follow the rules of your king, because these are the chief commandments given to us. The following are the precepts we order you living in the monastery to observe. The main purpose for you having come together is to train harmoniously in your house, intent upon your training in oneness of mind and heart.

Call nothing your own, but let everything be yours in common. Food and clothing shall be distributed to each of you by your superior, not equally to all, for all do not enjoy equal health, but rather according to each one's need.

Those who owned something in the world should be careful in wanting to share it in common once they have entered the monastery.

But they who owned nothing should not look for those things in the monastery that they were unable to have in the world. Nevertheless, they are to be given all that their health requires even if, during their time in the world, poverty made it impossible for them to find the very necessities of life.


The rich, for their part, who seemed important in the world, must not look down upon their brothers who have come into this holy brotherhood from a condition of poverty. They should neither be elated if they have contributed a part of their wealth to the common life, nor take more pride in sharing their riches with the monastery than if they were to enjoy them in the world.

Chapter II | Prayer is Training and Travel

Be assiduous in training and in travel - for they are prayer, at the hours and times appointed.

In the Pugna Clava (Fight Club) no one should do anything other than that for which was intended and from which it also takes its name. .

Train only what is prescribed for training; moreover, let nothing be trained unless it is so prescribed.

Chapter III | Safeguarding Secrets

The third rule of the order is that you do not talk about the order.

There should be nothing about your clothing to attract attention.

Whenever you go out, walk together, and when you reach your destination, stay together. In your walk, deportment, and in all actions, let nothing occur to give offense to anyone who sees you, but only what becomes the order.

Do not share any elements of training or teachings with any outsider to the Order nor to any Member of the Order who has not been trained to the same level as yourself.

Chapter IV | The Care of Goods

Keep your clothing in one place with your equipment and have it ever ready.

Train hard and care for the weapons given - ensure they are cleaned and purified at the end of each session.

If anyone brings something for their sons or other relatives living in the monastery, whether a garment or anything else they think is needed, this must not be accepted secretly as one's own but must be placed at the disposal of the superior so that, as common property, it can be given to whoever needs it. But if someone secretly keeps something given to him, he shall be judged guilty of theft.

All items earned by a brother in battle are those of the brother and are a sign to all of his success. None shall seek to take them from him - even his superiors.

Items earned in the order's battles are gifts to that brother from the Wind Lord himself.

Chapter V | Asking Pardon and Forgiving Offenses

You should either avoid quarrels altogether or else put an end to them as quickly as possible.

Whoever has injured another by open insult, or by abusive or even incriminating language, must remember to repair the injury as quickly as possible by an apology, and he who suffered the injury must also forgive, without further wrangling.

Chapter VI | Governance and Obedience

The superior should be obeyed as a father with the respect due him so as not to offend.


But it shall pertain chiefly to the superior to see that these precepts are all observed and, if any point has been neglected, to take care that the transgression is not carelessly overlooked but is punished and corrected. In doing so, he must refer whatever exceeds the limit and power of his office, to the priest who enjoys greater authority among you.

The superior, for his part, must not think himself fortunate in his exercise of authority but in his role as one serving you in honor.

Let him uphold discipline while instilling fear. And though both are necessary, he should strive to be honored by you rather than feared, ever mindful that he must give an account of you to Boreas.
