~The Nine Noble Virtues~

This set of virtues is the code of ethics which our ancestors followed
since the beginning of their existence; by living according to this code we
can breed greatness in ourselves and strength in our communities. Live by
this code and adhere to it in all your actions and undertakings.

~Honor~

Honor is more important than comfort, peace, love, and even life itself.
Swear by honor, live by it; die by it; for death is better than disgrace. Honor
means upholding and advancing the greatness of your folk, your family, and
yourself with your words and actions. It means being ready at all times to
defend that good name from shame and hateful slander. It requires that you
take complete responsibility for your words and actions, because they reflect
upon the image of not only yourself, but your family and your entire race as
well. You act with honor to set a good example for your racial brothers and
sisters, who might otherwise be led astray from it. For this reason, honor is
the accumulation of all of the other virtues; it is the perfection of ethical
behavior.

~Loyalty~

Loyalty is the supreme virtue, the ultimate ethic, the most important
trait; it must be as taken for granted as the pure blood which runs through
our veins. Loyalty is faithfulness to a higher cause; it is devotion to
something greater than oneself. It is what gives our folk unity and a
common purpose; it is what binds us together in an unbreakable bond that
is stronger than bands of iron. Your loyalty is to your folk, faith, and family,
in that order. This loyalty is non-negotiable and unconditional, it is never an
option. It is an enduring virtue, not a fickle one; it is not something that can
be occasionally cast aside for the sake of personal convenience, it must be
as constant and unbroken as your noble bloodline, regardless of what
happens to you because of it. It must follow you from the womb to the
grave, from your first breath to your last.
 ~Courage~

Courage is the ability to knowingly and willingly risk danger or criticism

despite your fear of it. There are two types of courage, the martial type and
the social type. Martial courage is that noble and wondrous trait that all
great men aspire to; it is what allows them to risk both pain and death in the
service of a higher cause. It is what gives men the strength to storm the
strongholds of the enemy, to hold firm in the face of terrible odds or even
certain death and defeat. Our heathen ancestors praised courage because
they lived in an age of eternal war, and so had great need of it. Even our
mythology, full of daring deeds, the slaying of monsters, and titanic battles,
demonstrates the warrior ideal. This is the cornerstone of a strong society,
the path to The Ideal. It is the virtue of Gods, of heroes, of legends; it is the
most beautiful trait a man can have, because without it, he is not a man.

Social courage is the moral strength to stand against evil and injustice, even
in the face of ridicule, persecution, even death. You must do this even if it is
unpopular, even if everyone else hates you for it. Stand for what is right,
even if you stand alone.

Then there is the quiet courage with which we face the challenges of
everyday life. Life is, after all, an eternal struggle, one we must carry on
bravely to the end. This is the courage of endurance, of persistence, of
pressing on even when you are tired, when spirits are broken, and all seems
hopeless. The reward is of this is not so much to have won, but to have
fought to truly live a life fulfilling in itself.

~Discipline~

Discipline is the mark of culture and civilization, the virtue of restraint

and responsibility. It means being able to maintain control over your
passions and emotions, to be the master of oneself. It is persistently making
yourself do what you need to do, regardless of how you feel about it. It is
the triumph of the will over base desire, the victory of your civilized side
over your inner savage. To have discipline is the true meaning of freedom,
for he who succumbs to pleasure is merely a slave of desire, whilst the other
is the master of desire. Discipline means doing your duty with enthusiasm
even when you would rather be doing something else, in contrast to the one
who declares themselves free from the constraints of morality, binding
themselves in selfish pursuits, thinking only of themselves, while the
disciplined man thinks of others…and is free.
