I am about to start a new 5e game and I am playing a paladin who is going to take the Oath of the Common Man. In lieu of a deity I wanted him to revere the combined spirit of past workers and common folk. Anyone who had died through exploitation and oppression. Right now I was just calling them the martyrs but was wondering you ya'll had any better names

    Miners in a lot of the Catholic world have specific Saints they look to for protection and intervention. Some of them also make sacrifices to Satan (like booze and cigarettes) because if you're going to go down in to a hot, deadly hole in thr ground full of toxic gasses where people are using explosives and the air is full of fine dust you want to be on good terms with the landlord.

      Great "I don't necessarily like you, but given the circumstances we should be on friendly terms" energy
