The Code Of Chivalry      Thou shalt defend the innocent   Thou shalt repsect all weaknessess and thou shalt constitute thyself the defender of them   Thou shalt love the country in which thou was born   Thou shalt not recoil before thine enemy   Thou shalt act honourably by Clan and Kin   Thou shalt never lie and remain faithful to thy pledged word   Thou shalt be generous and give largesse to everyone   Thou shalt be everywhere and always the champion of the Right and Good and the foe of injustice and evil                   The Path to Nobility   Courage - One must know when to choose the more difficult, and more personally expensive path.  Be ready to make personal sacrifices in order to serve the ideals and people that you cherish. It involves choosing to uphold truth at all costs, rather than allowing a lie to pass. Courage does not mean being stupidly arrogant, but having the will to do what is right.   Humility - Be the first to tell of another's deeds before your own, giving them the honor they deserved from their good deeds. By this, you in turn champion Justice honourably. Justice - In courageously seeking the truth, and the path of righteousness, one strives to escape  bias or personal gain. Justice untempered by mercy brings grief, therefore compassion  should always be at hand. Loyalty - Be  unbending in your commitments, those one can stand with honour and integrity. Prowess - Seek to be the master of your mind and body, and thus seek excellence in matters mental and martial. From this prowess springs the ability to champion those in need.     This information has been generously donated to Betwixt ~ compliments of ~ Odomin @ Odo's Corner
