 This order was formed during the War of the Heavens when the clerics of Mara were being slaughtered by the serpentmen. Mara refused to allow her clerics to bring harm to another when the world needed more healing not death. With this edict a group of warriors gave up their swords and poleaxes in exchange for shod clubs and quarterstaves. While it was still possible to kill with these weapons, Mara found the compromise acceptable — thus the Order of the Blue Shield was founded to protect the clerics of Mara when they could not protect themselves. When Mara marched to war, the Order of the Blue Shield traded in their staves and clubs for spears maces — she still would not allow the sword, but those weapons of the house could be used in war when necessary. This order was formed during the War of the Heavens when the clerics of Mara were being slaughtered by the serpentmen.
