Empowered by his passion and full of faith in
his own spiritual power, the Komtur reigns in everything
that is bestial and tainted in his men, forging
these facets of their personalities into a harmonic
greater whole in the form of the Band. Through his
guidance, everything that is untamed and unconscious
is turned into a wellspring for his creative mind to
draw from. The tamed savagery of the band is like
a rose blossoming on a dunghill. The Komtur’s
fearlessness brings freedom and self-confidence.
