The Code of Chivalry
1) To Live Live to serve King and Country. Live to defend Crown and Country and all it holds dear. Live one's life so that it is worthy of respect an honor. Live for freedom, justice, and all that is good. 2) Fair Play Never attack an unarmed foe. Never use a weapon on an opponent not equal to the attack. Never charge an unhorsed opponent. Never attack from behind. Avoid lying to your fellow man. Avoid cheating. Avoid torture. 3) Nobility Obey the laws of king, country and chivalry. Administer justice. Administer mercy. Protect the innocent. Exhibit self control. Show respect to authority. Respect women. 4) Valor Exhibit courage in word and deed. Defend the weak and innocent. Destroy evil in all its monstrous forms. Crush the monsters that steal our land and rob our people. Fight with honor Avenge the wronged. Never abandon a friend, ally, or noble cause. Fight for the ideals of king, country and chivalry. Die with valor. 5) Honor Always keep one's word of honor. Always maintain one's principles. Never betray a confidence or comrade. Avoid deception. Respect life and freedom. Die with honor. 6) Courtesy Exhibit manners. Be polite and attentive. Be respectful of host, women, and honor. 7) Loyalty To country, king, freedom and the code of chivalry. To one's friends and those who lay their trust in thee. Note: the laws of fair play, honor and nobility are often bent or abandoned by would-be knights and the less chivalrous, selfish or evil warriors. *taken from palladium books.
