On this day and date, 13 of November, I, Ignus Indalescio choose not to follow the path of the Sith Shadows, but to find its meaning to the Jedi way. To serve it and uphold its basic rules is my pledge, that I myself may be counted among the ones who *know*.
I recognize the Force as being the thread of Light & Dark that ties together every major religion, philosophy, and meditative path. My quest is for illumination into myself, and my service is to the Force, the good & the bad, of which everything comprises and which I fully embrace, uphold, serve and defend.
My path is not for personal gain, but for the will of the Force, of which I am a part. The path of a Sith Shadow is not a path of egotism, but through surrender to the Force, I in turn become strong with it.
Balance of the Force does noy include attempts to simultaneously serve good and evil. I renounce my allegiance to the Dark Side, but enbrace the Light Side and embrace only. I obey the laws of the land. I simply seek to *know* your ways.
I will never use what I have learned through the Sith Shadows. If I am forced to defend myself, I shall, yet I acknowledge that the way of the Force is to defend, not to kill needlessly. Altercations and violent misuse of the Force that compromise the rules of this code can be contested in conference with the Council of Thirteen, but it will be the final decision of the Council of Thirteen as to any formal reprimand and/or banishment. I will never use the skills and knowledge of the Sith Shadows to later serve the spilt force. This betrayal of confidence shall insure banishment and the stripping of any title, rank or recognition. It is the *highest* form of dishonour to be banished by my polar opposites.
I recognize and accept that a true Sith Shadow will always strive to exercise tolerance and discourage fanaticism. I accept that social bigotry is a form of fanaticism - fanaticism is born of fear, "fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering." Although I do not necessarily condon or condemn other religions or diverse lifestyles, I do hereby renounce bigotry and fanaticism, which I recognize is based on hate. I abhor terrorism, hate crimes, the violation of women, murder, and robbery. I agree that murder is the highest crime. I choose to serve the pure force - not the side of the Darkness which promote such in the mind and heart of the perpetrators who do such heinous and cowardly acts.
The Ways of the Force are truthfulness, compassion, honour, humility, courage, and loyalty to the cause. I choose this path and serve it with all my heart, mind and soul. My allegiance is to *my* path.
If recommended by the Council of Thirteen, I will submit to a teacher which the Council endorses to learn of the Ways of the Force, to become a Sith Shadow paladin and uphold the rules of my clan. I understand that it is my right to challenge the rules of the Sith Shadow’s if I disagree with the rule but the final say is the Council of Thirteen’s & that if a rule is omitted the code, no amount of campaigning can get it added once more.
