Oaths
Oaths are trials voluntarily undertaken—or, in the case of punishment, imposed—to test and develop a warrior. They should contribute to character development and a warrior's saga rather than function solely as a method of acquiring Saga Points.
OATHS
Oaths are for those who seek to build their Sagas and prove their loyalty to the Great Company. Seek out Wolf Priests to undergo the Oaths, which will build up your Saga.
