Core Ideology
Tenets & Beliefs
Tenet I — Brotherhood
Stay Your Blade
Never harm an innocent. The Brotherhood serves to protect those who cannot protect themselves.
Tenet II — Brotherhood
Be Discreet
Never compromise the Brotherhood. Work in the shadows, revealing yourself only when necessary.
Tenet III — Brotherhood
Never Compromise
Always place the Brotherhood above personal gain. The creed survives only through unity.
Philosophy — Brotherhood
Free Will
Humanity must choose its own path. Freedom — even to make mistakes — is the highest ideal worth fighting for.
Tenet I — Order
Peace Through Control
True peace requires order. Humanity must be guided — not given the freedom to destroy itself.
Tenet II — Order
Unity Above All
A single, unified vision is stronger than divided freedoms. The Order must act as one body, one will.
Tenet III — Order
The Greater Good
Individual sacrifice is acceptable if it ensures the survival and prosperity of the many. The ends justify the means.
Philosophy — Order
Order & Guidance
Humanity is flawed. Without the Order's influence, civilization will always collapse into chaos and self-destruction.
