Quote:Hrm has anyone got DJ' Croft's incantation from NXE?Do you mean this?
Quote:I have been Roland, Beowulf, Achilles, Gilgamesh; I have been called a hundred names and will be called a thousand more before the world goes dim and cold. I am hero.Not quite what I'm looking for, and I'm already planning on using a variant elsewhere in the Walk. The ZnT invocation might work for my purposes, though. I'll have to think on it. As for the other recent suggestions... mm. Some are good but too short, like the Irish Ranger motto. The 13th Warrior quote isn't really an oath or promise, which is really key to what I need. I might be able to use at least part of the Danzai oath, although I'd prefer to use stuff from the culture at large. And the Hippocratic Oath doesn't quite fit for the purpose I need it for.
Still, thank you all for the suggestions so far, and I look forward to whatever else you guys can come up with.
