~ The Knights Code ~

PROWESS - To seek excellence in all endeavors expected of a knight, martial and otherwise, seeking strength to be used in the service of justice, rather than in personal aggrandizement.

JUSTICE - Seek always the path of 'right', unencumbered by bias or personal interest. Recognise that the sword of justice can be a terrible thing, so it must be tempered by humanity and mercy. If the 'right' you see rings true, agrees with others, and you seek it out without bending to the temptation for expediency, then you will earn renown beyond measure.

LOYALTY - Be known for unwavering commitment to the people and ideals you choose to live by. There are many places where compromise is expected, loyalty is not amongst them.

DEFENCE - The ideal knight was sworn by oath to defend his commander and those who depend upon him. Seek always to defend your nation, your family, and those whom you believe worthy of loyalty.

COURAGE - Being a knight often means choosing the more difficult path, the personally expensive one. Be prepared to make personal sacrifices in service of the ideas and people you value. At the same time, a knight should seek wisdom to see that stupidity and courage are cousins. Courage also means taking the side of truth in matters, rather than seeking the expedient lie. Seek the truth whenever possible, remember to temper justice with mercy, or the pure truth can bring grief.

FAITH - A knight must have faith in his beliefs, for faith roots him and gives hope against the despair that human failings create.

HUMILITY - Value first the contributions of others, do not boast of your own accomplishments, let others do this for you. Tell the deeds of others before your own, according them the renown rightfully earned through virtuous deeds. In this way service of a knight is well done and glorified, helping not only the gentle spoken, but also all who call themselves warriors.

LARGESSE - Be generous in so far as your resources allow, largesse used in this way counters gluttony. It also makes the path of mercy easier to discern when a difficult decision of justice is required.

NOBILITY - Seek great stature of character by holding to the virtues and duties of a knight, realising that though the ideals cannot be reached, the quality of striving towards them ennobles the spirit, growing the character from dust towards the heavens. Nobility also has the tendency to influence others, offering a compelling example what can be done in the service of rightness.

FRANCHISE - Seek to emulate everything I have spoken of as sincerely as possible, not for the reason of personal gain but because it is right. Do not restrict your exploration to a small world, but seek to infuse every aspect of your life with these qualities. Should you succeed in even a tiny measure then you will be well remembered for your quality and virtue.
