Looking For A Little Input

[Bluemage]

Oaths and invocations, eh?  Something of an idle project of mine.  Let's see what I can dig up.
Just a warning- I'm going to throw in things that only partially match what you're looking for, on the theory that you may be able to take bits from them to alter more fitting ones.

"When we joined the Covenant, we took an oath."

"According to our station, all without exception."

"On the blood of our fathers. On the blood of our sons. We swore to uphold the Covenant."

"Even to our dying breath!"

"Those who would break this oath are heretics,
worth of neither pity nor mercy. Even now they use our Lord's creations
to broadcast their lies."

"We shall grind them into dust—"

"—And continue our march to glorious salvation!"

-Halo 2, from a group of Elites

"I stand between the Light and the Darkness, between
the Innocent and the Monstrous, between the Just and the Vile. I dwell
at the edge of Darkness, that others may live in the Light. I am a
Twilight Paladin. As such, I hereby take these oaths:

"Upon my honor, upon my soul, upon my magic and my hope for redemption, I swear to never again kill a thinking being.

"Upon my honor, upon my soul, upon my magic
and my hope for redemption, I swear to seek and serve justice to the
limit of my capacity and the best of my understanding.

"Lastly, I swear my magic, my skills, and my life to your defense and your service."

-The oath of the Twilight Paladins, from the Nanoha fic Endless Waltz

Never violate a woman, nor harm a child.
Do not lie, cheat or steal.
These things are for lesser men.
Protect the weak against the evil strong.
And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil.
Never back away from an enemy. Either fight or surrender.
It is not enough to say "I will not be evil." Evil must be fought wherever it is found.

-The Iron Code of Druss the Legend(This one could be twisted to fit SO EASILY.  Change the concept of 'never' to 'never again', and you're there.)

I am Sa'kage, a lord of shadows.
I claim the shadows so that the Shadow may not.
I am the strong arm of deliverance.
I am Shadowstrider.
I am the Scales of Justice.
I am He-Who-Guards-Unseen.
I am Shadowslayer.
I am Nameless.
The coranti shall not go unpunished.
My way is hard, but I serve unbroken.
In ignobility, nobility.
In shame, honor.
In darkness, light.
I will do justice and love mercy.
Until the king returns, I shall not lay my burden down.

-The creed of the Night Angels, from the trilogy of the same name.("...From ignobility, nobility.  From shame, honor.  From darkness, light."?)
I'll look over my files when I get home from work.  Might have a couple more to consider.EDIT: Nope.  Incantations, I've got- most of them too specific.  Prophecies?  Sure, a few.  Oaths of fealty?  Not a one.
