Oath of the Raven Queen paladins abide by the following tenets:
Respect the Cycle of Life and Death.
I understand that death is a natural part of life. I shall strive to respect and uphold the balance between life and death.
Protect the Passage of Souls.
I see it as my duty to ensure that souls pass peacefully from the mortal realm to the afterlife. I will intervene to protect souls from being trapped or harmed by malevolent forces.
Embrace Darkness, but Do Not Succumb to It.
I shall not be afraid of darkness or death, but I must always strive to remain true to the Raven Queen's will and resist corruption.
Pursue Knowledge of the Veil.
I will seek to unravel the mysteries surrounding death, fate, and the realm beyond mortality. I shall find enlightenment through study, exploration, and contemplation.
