• When you join the cult of an Imperial Muse, you swear a vow.
• As a Paladin of the Rod, pick one vow from below:

• I will never heal another.
• I will never back down from a fight.
• I will never use diplomacy as my first method of solving a problem.

• You should roleplay this vow accordingly.
• This vow allows you to use Might to perform the Acts below.
• If you ever feel as though you have violated your vow, let the GM know:
• You will lose all your Might for the adventure.

• Each Act costs 1 Might to perform.
• Might is restored between encounters.
• Each Paladin begins with 2 Might.
• Your maximum Might can be increased by purchasing the 'Might' Paladin Skill.

• You must purchase Acts with XP as you would normal skills.

• You may call STAGGER on your next blow.

• You may call WOUND on your next melee blow.

• You may call REPEL on your next melee blow.

• You drive someone down into the earth.
• Call WOUND BOTH LEGS by melee blow.

• You may call BREAK on your next melee blow.

• Not even death can halt your rampage.
• When you enter your death count, use this Act:
• For the first 10 seconds of your death count you may stay up and fighting.

• Concentrate for 15s,
• Then use this Act:
• Call a MASS STAGGER.

• You may call WOUND 15 on your next melee blow.

• You may call VANISH on your next melee blow.
• The enemy calls DISAPPERARING. The enemy calls REAPPEARING in the same spot in 10s and calls a MASS STAGGER.
• If this is used on ally, they may relocate themselves within the encounter.

• You may call REPEL 20 on your next melee blow.

• As you strike the ground a shockwave ripples out.
• Call MASS WOUND BOTH LEGS.

• Concentrate for 5s
• During this period of time you should roleplay winding up for a massive blow.
• Then, use this Act:
• You may call QUINT by melee.

• You have made an icon to the Muse you follow.
• Twice per adventure you may use this to attempt to divine the Muse's opinion on a matter.
• The responses, if they arrive are generally cryptic.
• Icons are hard to lose or break.
• If either occurs, they will likely find there way back to the paladin, restored, after a couple of encounters.

• For paladins of the Rod their icon is virtually always a weapon of some description.
• Whilst your icon is on your person, every time you reduce an opponent to 0 hits, take a HEAL 1.
• In addition, your icon is IMMUNE to BREAK.

• You may if you wish turn your every effort towards destroying something during your downtime.
• Unless the object in question is particularly potent or protected in some way it is destroyed.

• Once per adventure you may perform a great feat within your Muse's purview.
• For example, you could perform an act of overwhelming destruction.

Pre-req: Icon

• So long as you are on two or more hits, any call which would drop you to 0 hits drops you to 1 hit, instead.

• If you are on two or less hits, you are IMMUNE to mental effect calls.

Pre-req: Icon Attunement

• For one encounter per adventure, the first three times you drop an enemy to 0 hits, gain a Might.
