Oath of the Villainous

The Oath of the Villainous is taken by those who embrace the power of domination, tyranny, and unrelenting ambition. These Holy Crusaders see power as the only true law and impose their will upon the weak.

Tenets of the Villainous

Power is Everything: The strong rule, and the weak exist to serve.

Fear is Strength: A ruler must be feared to maintain control.

Crush All Opposition: Mercy is weakness; destroy those who stand in your way.
