Order of the Argent Gryphon

Argent Codex

The Argent Gryphon adheres to a codex — a set of regulations for daily life, behaviour, and values — emphasising chivalry, piety, and a strict moral code. Written by Roderic Rivershaw, it outlines the ideal conduct for a Gryphon, encompassing both monastic life and military service.

Exhort Righteousness Let thy steel and magic serve justice.
Shield the Innocent Stand between the helpless and harm, though it cost thee all.
Serve with Humility Let pride be cast down, and duty be thy crown.
Seek Wisdom Knowledge is the flame by which corruption is purged.
Show Mercy, Without Weakness Strike not in wrath, nor stay thy hand when retribution calls.
Keep the Vigil Wherever the Gryphon flies, let no infamy go unchallenged.
Die with Honour If thy end must come, let it be noble and unafraid.
