-Even the most devout followers of good can recognize the need for ruthlessness when opposing true evil. The crimson templars are taught that mercy is a virtue reserved for only those capable of accepting redemption.
+The Crimson Templars, however, do not go unprepared into this fight. Only the most ardent and faithful are accepted to even attempt to join these exalted ranks. Those that are chosen will undergo countless trials, testing their physical endurance, combat effectiveness, and most of all, the strength of their mind and soul to resist the temptations of their chosen enemies. Needless to say, most will not pass muster. Many will perish along the way. It is only the few, the strongest that will be inducted to begin their actual training. These chosen few will have been tested for anything in their past which would create a weakness to darkness and they would be absolutely pure of heart.
-They must learn this lesson well, for they are trained to face the heartless legions of the Abyss and Hell. These women and men are heavenly assassins, and they tread a bloody path so the oaths of others remain untarnished. Their mission is a thankless one, as righteous allies often view them as just a step away from corruption.
+The Crimson Templar is a relentless seeker, a hunter delving into the darkest and most foul places of the world to root out dark-aligned outsiders and their cults, wherever they may be. They are shock troops, often striking in ambush when their quarry is at its most vulnerable. They use guile against guile, deception where it is needed, and righteous furor as a message to any who would heed the words of these abyssal and infernal denizens. There is no trick, no deception which will not be used to take these foul creatures down.
+It is thus that the Crimson Templar is a honed and focused hunter, mentally, spiritually and physically conditioned towards a singular goal. They do not suffer crises of faith. They do not bend or compromise in their mission. Anyone who has made it far enough to become a Crimson Templar is essentially beyond corruption or doubt. They are wholeheartedly single-minded in their faith, their mission and their purpose. This is not a class to play if you are not willing to be unwavering.
+=====Faith=====
+The Crimson Templars are the militant arm of several faiths, including Kreysneothosies, Edea, and Jarmila. Their code, their aesthetics, their methods are based on divinity and fire. Fire plays a big part in their rituals, to include branding and tattooing themselves with protective runes, attaining resistance or immunity to fire or using fire as their choice method of purification. With that said, they do allow members of other faiths to join so long as they adhere to the tenets and principles of the Crimson Templars.
+Faith is at the very center of the Crimson Templars, it is the beacon that tethers them to the light, and the fire that fuels their resolve. While all templars share a common set of principles, they are also expected to uphold the charge of their deity. Although the various faiths may not see eye to eye on every subject, the Crimson Templars are absolutely unified and unmoved when it comes to facing their chosen enemies.
+=====Sacred Creed=====
+We are the warriors of the Light and the Flame, scouring the world of Darkness. We suffer neither demon, nor devil, nor any dark denizen of the outer planes to exist. We are the torch in the night, leading the masses in the promise of a brighter future. There is no room for tolerance, which invites only treachery and betrayal. We are the blade that strikes true where others hesitate or falter. We are the Crimson Templars, the last thin line of defense against the endless darkness and we shall not yield.
+=====History=====
+The Crimson Templars were formed in the wake of the Long Night and dedicated themselves to ensuring that such a calamity would never threaten the world again. Taking inspiration from the Deva Mal’Kor, Holy Phoenix of Jarmila, the Crimson Templars fight all threats to the world, both within and without. The most experienced among them are veterans of the Long Night, and originally consisted only of followers of Jarmila and Kreysneothosies. Once the Celestial Light imbued her followers with power and the faith of Edea fully established itself, the Crimson Templars have extended to include them.
