Dragoon Code of War

All Dragoons, regardless of Clan, are taught the Dragoon Code of War as soon as they enter the academy. 
It partly serves as a manifesto for the Dragoon race. But it is mainly a code of ethics for Dragoons to follow, especially in regards to combat.
== Dragoon Ten Commandments ==
The Dragoon Ten Commandments are a focal point of the Code.
# You are the chosen ones of all creation. You shall seek combat and train yourselves to endure any manner of test. To you, battle shall be the fulfillment.
# Cultivate true comradeship, for by the aid of your comrades you will conquer or die.
# Beware of talking. Be not corruptible. Men act while beasts bray. Senseless noise may bring you to the grave.
# Be calm and prudent, strong and resolute. The valour and enthusiasm of an offensive spirit will cause you to prevail in the attack.
# The most precious thing in the presence of the foe is ammunition. He, who shoots uselessly, merely to comfort himself, is a man of straw who merits not the title of Dragoon.
# Never surrender; to you death or victory must be a point of honour.
# You can triumph only if your weapons are good. See to it that you submit yourself to this law - first thy weapon, then thyself.
# You must grasp the full purpose of every enterprise, so that if your leader is killed you can fulfill it.
# Against an open foe, fight with chivalry, but to a guerrilla, extend no quarter.
# Keep your eyes wide open. Tune yourself to the utmost pitch. Be nimble as a greyhound, tough as leather, hard as steel. You shall be the warrior incarnate.
== Excerpts ==
One man can be overcome. But two can stand back to back and conquer. Three is even better, for a three-ply cord is not easily broken.When you run alone, you run fast. When you run together, you run far.
