Virtues are eight virtues that are tied directly to thee principles. The inclusion of all eight virtues, the thee principles and Free Will is Ethos.
- Those principles that guide our lives... Truth. Love. Courage. They echo through everything we see and do. They shape the magical power that is used for both good and ill. Yet enough time has passed that these have been forsaken by the people, forgotten. Abandoned. It falls to you, avatar, to remind those around of you of their importance, through your example! The Oracle will help guide you in this path.
- I cannot explain why the people of New Britannia have forgotten the true meaning of the virtues, Avatar. I can only let you witness the impact of this for yourself. It is your destiny, and why I am here to guide you.[1]
- The Virtues guide our behavior in ways that promote wisdom and enlightenment. There are eight: Honesty, Compassion, Valor, Justice, Sacrifice, Honor, Spirituality, and Humility. The principles of Truth, Love, and Courage are their foundation. Ethos describes their entirety.[2]
