Oath of Cinder

Yes, indeed. It is called Lothric, where the transitory lands of the Lords of Cinder converge. In venturing north, the pilgrims discover the truth of the old words: "The fire fades and the lords go without thrones." When the link of the fire is threatened, the bell tolls, unearthing the old Lords of Cinders from their graves... Aldrich, Saint of the Deep... Farron's Undead Legion, the Abyss Watchers... And the reclusive lord of the Profaned Capital, Yhorm the Giant... Only, in truth... the Lords will abandon their thrones... And the Unkindled will rise. Nameless, accursed Undead, unfit even to be cinder. And so it is, that ash seeketh embers.

Tenets of Cinder

Cycle

Life is like a fire, it has cycles. Life has a spark but it can also fade into ashes.

Persistance

Just like a cycle, a paladin of this Oath never gives up.

"It's the Lord of Light who brings you back. I'm just the lucky drunk who says the words."- Thoros of Myr

Rekindle

Everyone has an outcome, there is no changing what true fate a person has. It is your duty to inspire hope in those with a destiny.

Praise

Once a day you must praise the sun. Even if the sun is not visible, you must attempt. This process takes five minutes.
