| Some warriors fight for glory. Some for coin. You fight for conviction. Whether bound to a holy order, sworn to a sacred duty, or driven by personal belief, you blend arms and faith into one. A Templar is both sword and sanctuary---a bulwark against corruption, a judge in armour, a healer with a blade. Your strength is not just in your swing, but in the resolve behind it. | Some warriors fight for glory. Some for coin. You fight for conviction.

| - | {{ : | + | The Templar's path is as diverse as the faiths and philosophies they follow. You may be part of a long-standing order, a protector of holy relics or ancient secrets, or even a wandering zealot driven by divine revelation. Whatever the source of your conviction, your martial prowess is inseparable from your devotion. You do not simply wield weapons---you wield the power of your faith, and with each strike or prayer, you channel that force to protect the innocent, punish the wicked, and stand resolute in the face of overwhelming odds. |
| - | Templars are not mere soldiers; they are champions of their beliefs. While many wield their weapons to defend the sacred, others take the role of enforcers, tasked with rooting out corruption and eradicating evil where they find it. You are equally at home in the heat of battle, using your weapon to protect your allies, as you are calling down divine or mystical powers to heal wounds, smite foes, or shield the weak. The same strength that drives your sword strikes also strengthens your resolve, allowing you to face dangers that would break others without faltering. | + | {{ : |
| - | Templars are often seen as figures of authority, their presence commanding respect. Whether leading armies, offering counsel, or making difficult moral decisions, your role is one of both power and responsibility. It is not a role you chose lightly; the Templar’s path is paved with trials that test both your physical might and spiritual resilience. As a templar, you are a living embodiment of your faith’s principles, someone others can look to in times of crisis. You offer both guidance and judgment, wielding the sword as a symbol of your devotion, and the divine as a tool of justice. | + | Templars are often seen as figures of authority, their presence commanding respect.
