Everkim - DevLan-Cybersecurity/arvan GitHub Wiki
The Everkims is a race of positive alignment and are the knights of the Goddess Themis, called and chosen by Her to be Her Hand as Divine Justice, and to spread Her Word, that is, her teachings and the principles and precepts of the Themissian cult. They act in support and defense of the creation of the Goddess and the principles of Worship; they guard the arcane mysteries and the Sacred Places and act for Divine Justice in compliance with the Seven Principles.
The Everkim are figures surrounded by mystery, valiant knights from the noble soul and the unwavering devotion to the goddess, are the "Light in the Darkness", the example to follow and the reference for all the faithful to Themis. Her Knights, Elected directly among the deserving, are bulwarks of worship and of the principles of Themis, bearers of Her Word, Her Justice and Divine Wish.
They are called to serve Her through the First White Knight. Legend say that it is the Goddess herself who whispers in the First White Knight’s ear the name of the one who is worthy of receiving Her Call; how the Call actually happens is shrouded in mystery.
They are the reference, the example and the support for all the guilds and activities related to the cult of Themis in Arvan and surrounding lands. These Knights of unquestionable moral temper, try, where possible, to redeem the evil and the Deception that he brings with him through the Word, only if the attempt is unsuccessful, the Knight of the Goddess Themis resorts to arms.
A Knight of Themis, however, knows that for some beings there is no redemption and therefore acts to eradicate evil to the root. They are committed to providing help, both material and moral, to anyone who needs it and protect and defend the Temple of Themis and the Holy Places where the Goddess is venerated. They protect and defend the mysteries contained in the Holy Places and in the Holy Book of Themis, the foundation of the cult of the Goddess. They guard the Knight’s Tome and the Sacred Artifacts.
The mission
Every Knight lives and pursues what is called Mission. It is explained within the Knight’s Tome and is linked to the Mysteries and Dogmas: it tends to the destruction of Evil and Chaos, understood both physically and spiritually. An evil can be traced back to Themis, giving her the purest victory over evil; or, it can be destroyed by freeing Creation from the infection it represents. It is said that on the Last Day the last Mystery will be revealed: from its understanding the Right World will be born, a world devoid of the very concept of Evil that only a few Chosen Ones will remember, as the last guardians of the dark times that were.
