Order of Our Lady of Perpetual Agony

“Let me grieve, let me suffer, For one wound on me is one less on you”
A religious, monastic order as well as an organized medical and judicial group, the Order are a combination of followers of the strange gods, Tsepi and Stradaniya. The Order operates as a universal charity, offering medical aid for free for any that need it. Despite this, they are generally a feared institution for the sheer fervor which their members inspire and indulge in. Clerics and paladins of the Order are seen as zealots of the highest degree, even if it is for a good cause, due to the many practices they follow in the name of keeping justice and fulfilling the commandments of Stradaniya. Though they are often seen around battlefields, they never take a side in conflict unless spurred to do so by unwarranted aggression. Disciples of the Order are often pacifists, but there is a distinct sub-sect of oath of vengeance, glory, and conquest paladins that favor Tsepi. The namesake of the Order comes from a strange and secret monastic outfit meant to protect the Lady, of whom very little is known about and few are willing to pry. Generally, all that is known is that they are specifically the chosen of Stradaniya, and all that implies. This monastery does have an honor guard, occasionally dispatched when needed to highly dangerous scenarios, where they are identified by their stark, white robes and weapons wrapped in razor-covered wire.
