Nexus City Guides' Oath:

[We citizens of far places|I, _____, a citizen of _____], in claiming citizenship here and to demonstrate [our|my] understanding of the committments thereof, do take this oath of devotion to the City of Gates:

[we|I] will never bring disgrace to [our|my] City by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever desert [our|my] suffering comrades in the streets;

[we|I] will fight for the ideals, places, and things sacred to [our|my] City, whether the battles are fought solitary or not, be the threats physical or otherwise;

[we|I] will revere and obey the City's Law, and do [our|my] best to inspire a like respect and reverence in all those whose paths [we|I] may cross;

[we|I] will strive unceasingly to revive or nurture a sense of civic duty in the newly-arrived and the newly-discovered;

and with the adoption and propogation of these methods and ideals, [we|I] will ensure the continual and ever-improving health and beauty of the City of Gates.

Bingo! I have a playtest photocopy, never got around to buying the final copy. Gotta love those felinoid Obstructionists.

Yay! I loved that game. My last character for the campaign I was in was Momentum Jones, a guy from a 4 color superhero universe that wound up in Nexus and got a job as a Shawman. Because everyone needs their rickshaw pulled by someone with Move and Speed somewhere in the mid-teens.
