Mystic Warrior
In Mandalan lore, the Mystic Warrior is an ideal, symbolizing the indomitability of the spirit. It is the unshakable belief of the Mandalans that, though their people may be enslaved and oppressed, their hearts and minds shall always remain free. Thus, in the Mandalan perspective, no enemy can ever truly conquer their race.
For the vast majority of Mandalans, the practice of this philosophy is limited to various subtle forms of passive resistance. In rare instances however, a Mandalan may actually adopt the persona of the Mystic Warrior. Operating in total secrecy, these individuals often engage in overt forms of resistance, including acts of sabotage and other secret activities. According to legend, those who heed the call of the Mystic Warrior become as the wind: their presence is felt but never seen. Such is the mystery which surrounds these individuals that the Mandalans do not even admit that they exist.
