Tenets of the Ancient Oath
  • Kindle the Light: Through your acts of mercy, kindness and forgiveness, kindle the light of hope in the world, beating back despair.
  • Shelter the Light: Where there is good, beauty, love and laughter in the world, stand against the wickedness that would swallow it. Where life flourishes, stand against the forces that would render it barren.
  • Preserve Your Own Light: Delight in song and laughter, in beauty and art. If you allow the light to die within your own heart, how can you preserve it in the world?
  • Be the Light: Be a glorious beacon for all who live in despair. Let the light of your joy and courage shine forth in all your deeds.

Age: 22

Origin

  • Born at the edge of the Daltes, in an agricultural community.
  • When she was 12, as the Ascension War came to a close, she found the site of a skirmish. She was drawn to it by the sounds of something shrieking in pain. She discovered that it was a beautiful courser, terribly injured in battle, and its rider - the famed paladin Sir Eratain of the Dawn - dead.
  • Martinique cared for the horse, bringing it back to health despite her fellow villagers insisting that it ought to be killed. Fortunately, she was altogether too stubborn to give up on the animal, who turned out to be a Valexi, with a long history of serving as a mount for Lathandran paladins. Indeed, he himself is one of the faithful.
  • For some odd reason, the horse stayed with her, eventually guiding her into a vocation with the church of Lathander.
  • When she took her oaths to the church, Gloaming stayed with her, much to the interest of the church's elders. In time, she became a knight-chaplain of the church of Lathander.
