Protocols
We take upon ourselves the sacred task of waging war against the practitioners of left-handed magic and the spirits which feed on mankind. We hold as our sacred trust the protection of the Sleepers from the world of magic and spirits. We recognize as our sacred duty the practicing of dark arts to foil the plots of witches, demons, and sorcerers. We are the children of the caul. We are travelers on the good path. We are the Benandanti.
We bind ourselves to observing the Ember Days according to the ancient rites.
We bind ourselves to discovering the ways of the Shadow Realm and its denizens.
We bind ourselves to protecting our cauls as our link between this world and the Shadow.
We bind ourselves to guarding the Sleepers and never abandoning them to dark magic or spirits.
We bind ourselves to the Barbary Compact and its Protocols.
Let any Benandanti who follows these tenets benefit from the aid of his brethren.
