Tenets of Faith

Be vigilant. Stand, wait, and watch carefully so that you may notice any and all threats before they arrive.
 
Do not use, create, or tolerate anything that exists but serves no practical purpose. Ensure all things exist for some benefit or purpose.
 
Never betray your trust, and always stand united with those you live and fight beside. A shared purpose is shared survival, and a unit is only as strong as its weakest link.
 
Always obey orders, demonstrate excellence, and purity of loyalty.
 
Survival is paramount. Expunge all weakness and build up the strength to survive and thrive, both in yourself and others, in the name of the Great Guardian.
 
Balance is integral to the survival of life. Maintain it in everything you do, whether it be nature, society, battle, or otherwise.

Holidays

None. His followers generally believe Holidays serve no purpose and are thus useless.

Divine Goals & Aspirations

To teach all creatures how to survive and cast off the shackles of needless aesthetics and unnecessary beauty or form.   Weed out all kinds of weakness.   Watch eternally for threats to himself, his followers, or the world at large.   Guard all life and keep it alive.
