Warriors are all considered extremely poorly in Shin culture. To a Shin, since warriors exist only to destroy, they are far below the farmers and craftsmen who live to create, and even merchants, who trade in other's goods. All warriors are required to obey totally the person who holds their oathstone, voluntarily subjecting themselves into a state not unlike slavery. While a Shin warrior is able to distinguish his oathstone, it does not appear to be remarkable in any other way--their subjugation appears to be entirely voluntary. As a rule, Shin warriors cannot be given to outsiders, and the rules regarding the trading of oathstones inside Shinovar are unknown. What is known, however, is that any person who picks up a weapon is required to take an oathstone and live the rest of their life as a warrior.
