The Justicar

Estimated reading: 3 minutes 830 views Contributors

The Justicar is the God of Law who stands as the embodiment of order. In a world teeming with choices, there must be rules to guide actions and uphold justice. The Justicar’s domain is absolute and even the Gods use Them to settle disputes and maintain fairness. Mortals may create the laws but They ensure that those laws are respected and followed, enforcing balance and integrity. Valor, too, falls within their domain, though it is often associated with the Warrior or Guardian. For the Justicar, Valor is not simply the pursuit of physical strength or bravery; it is the courage to stand firm in one’s beliefs, and to give everything for a cause that aligns with justice. Justice, in all its forms, is the heart of the Justicar’s domain, and it is through the fair application of laws and the valorous pursuit of righteousness that order is maintained.

Tenets of the Justicar

  • Live by what you say – Uphold you own principles before expecting others to follow suit. Justice demands you hold yourself, and those close to you, to the same standards you impose on strangers.
  • Measure the scales without bias – Never let wealth, power, or social standing cloud your judgment; every person’s voice deserves equal consideration in the pursuit of justice.
  • Know the carrot not only the cane – Justice is not only about punishment; reward those who strive to do right, encouraging growth and positive change.

The Judge

The Judge is unwavering and resolute in its adherence to the law. It does not concern itself with context, intent, or mercy only with ensuring that the letter of the law is upheld. When it manifests, it is not as a presiding figure in court, but rather as a presence that whispers final verdicts to those responsible for delivering judgment. It is often invoked when contracts are made or laws are being formalized, ensuring that all actions are witnessed and bound by law.

The Seeker

The Seeker is the aspect of the Justicar that hunts the truth, not in pursuit of the guilty, but in search of justice for the wronged. It seeks out those who have been unjustly accused or who have suffered from laws that have been misapplied. The Seeker is merciless to those who twist the laws, bringing them face-to-face with the consequences of corruption. However, for those who are honest, the Seeker offers clarity and relief, ensuring that justice will eventually be served.

The Valour

Valour is new to The Justicar. It appears as a source of inspiration and courage, bringing faith to those in need and reminding them that bravery is not the absence of fear, but the will to face it. The Valour keeps those who enforce the laws honest, with their presence reminding them of oaths taken to protect the innocent people of the nations and there have been tales of a robed figure giving impassioned sermons on morality to lawkeepers and makers.
