Behold! For among you lies the salvation of reality. -- Lord Knight Martrim Berault
Throughout the ages, the forces of chaos have run rampant across the planes, dominating all that they have encountered. For centuries, these armies of discord were left to sweep through existence like a great sea, and consume the natural order of the cosmos. From their beginnings, these chaotic forces were opposed, first by those seeking to keep a balance, to keep neutrality, but they were fighting a two front war, that against the chaos, and another to stem the battle of good and evil, from destroying all. It was not until three hundred years ago, by human reckoning, that the great divinities of law, Axa, Torm, and Mithras, had decided to step in on behalf of reality. With the arrival of the lords of law, the forces of chaos prepared for the coming battle, quickly amassing more devotees to their cause, for the road of chaos is easy to travel. Yet those who did not eagerly seek the easiest path found themselves in the arms of Lady Axa the Lawbringer. They were to be the first of the Justicars.
The Justicars of Axa are the most militant of the factions venerating the gods of law. For them, the destruction of all chaos is the ultimate goal, one which can never be reached, but one they continue to strive for regardless. The Justicars are well trained in martial prowess, masters of the discipline known simply as Tsar Quen. No Justicar is ever without a weapon, as long as they remain faithful to their lord. Even without arms or armour, a Justicar can call upon Axa for divine intervention, which forms the base reason for the pious devotion of the Justicar to the goddess of justice.
The price of such power, such righteous might, is not cheap. Upon enlistment with the Justicars, one ceases to be an individual. All the Justicars are a lesser part of a whole, something which is much larger then themselves. Each Justicar is expected to follow the orders of those above them in the chain of command, lest the forces of chaos destroy the order of the Justicars because of unorganization. As a devotee of Axa, the Justicar is expected to maintain impeccable morals, worthy of a pious follower of the goddess of justice. Failure to do so could result in dismissal of all granted powers or possibly execution for treason. For the Justicar, any sign of chaos must be destroyed. If their own members cannot be trusted to not stray upon the path of discord, how can they expect to ever win their eternal struggle, which will rage forevermore?
