Oathbound

From PathfinderWiki
(Redirected from Sword-Mark)
The symbol of Lastwall.

Oathbound is a title given to those citizens of the city of Vigil, the capital of Lastwall, that have sworn an oath, and agreed to be magically bound by that oath, to defend the innocent and to support the crusades of the city to guard against the return of the Whispering Tyrant; and to prevent the spread of the orcs currently concentrated in the Hold of Belkzen.1

Shield-Mark

The Shield-Mark is proof of a citizen's oathbound status in Vigil. It is the magical mark of a shield symbol on the person's palm.1

Sword-Mark

Iomedae's religious symbol is used as the Sword-Mark.

Similar to the Shield-Mark, the Sword-Mark is another magical mark placed on a person's palm; this time, it takes the form of the religious symbol of Iomedae. The Sword-Mark indicates that the wearer is a member of the military of Lastwall.2

Shield-Mark and Sword-Mark

Having both the Shield-Mark and the Sword-Mark indicates the wearer additionally gains full citizenship and rights within Vigil.2
