The Oath

The Oath was a declaration of an aspiring initiate’s intention of joining Legacy. It was arguably the most important part of The Initiation, as it cemented the recruit’s place as a member of Legacy. It was written by Nico589 during the second Valianthero era, though the original oath’s use has seen a steady decline of usage in the Initiation ceremony.

Words of The Oath
I swear to uphold the ancient laws of this faction

I swear to raise myself as a shield, and to risk my own life to protect the innocent

I swear to avoid unnecessary violence, and to seek peace, at all costs

I swear to remain loyalty to this faction, no matter what adversities or obstacles may come to pass

Thus swears I, N.

If accepted, the Initiator would then declare. “Welcome, brother. You are now one of us.” The Oath has been revised numerous times; the original Oath’s true words have been lost to time.

Oathbreakers Members of Legacy who take the Oath and violate it at some future point are branded as Oathbreakers, and are either cast out of the faction, or leave of their own volition. Oathbreakers are regarded as pariahs, and most are universally hated by their former comrades.

Notable Oathbreakers Include:

Frumentarii: An alternate account controlled by ThePhantom24601, Frumentarii revealed the locations of two of Legacy’s primary bases.

Axl433: A former faction moderator, and disciple of Eiries. Axl left and joined the Assassins, much to the dismay of Cappuccinorush. A special enchanted sword, the Oathkeeper, was forged by Nico589 for the purpose of slaying him.

Dues_Ex_Machinima: A former member of the (now fallen) Templars. Dues was allowed membership into Legacy due to her past connections with ShroudedRebirth. She deserted Legacy after being offered membership with the Assassins.
