Chapter 6: Equipment

áá Paladins take their equipment seriously, and seek to own the best that money can buy. Not only does their equipment reflect the honor of their station; for some it symbolizes their principles.

ò The shield represents the paladin's vow to uphold his ethos.

ò The sword represents the two constituencies he's sworn to defendùone edge of the sword represents the privileged class, the other the common people.

ò Armor represents loyalty to the state. Just as his armor protects his body, so must he protect his monarch.

ò The helmet represents loyalty to the religion. Just as his helmet protects his head, so must he protect his church.

ò Clothing, well-crafted and immaculately clean, represents purity of spirit.
