Sworn at the initiation rites of the Brotherhood of Gorm:

Great and mighty is Gorm, spirit of the sun, master of storms and giver of laws.

Like the sun is eternal, so is my word.
Like the storms are strong, so is my word.
Like the law is unbending, so is my word.

My word is holy – I will never break it.
This is the Law of Gorm.
Under the Law of Gorm, I swear this oath, the laws of Men:

I swear to:
Let Brotherhood come above all other bonds
Let the ways of old guide and shape the new
Let the strong protect and lead the weak
Let no wickedness go unpunished
Let no lie cross my lips
Let all things be done in moderation
Let Hyborea be a shining example of these laws, the laws of Men
