The Hand of Zakarum (a.k.a. "Paladins of Zakarum") was the name given to the second paladin order of Zakarum. Consecrated by the Church, and once able to wield the powers of the Light, It has since fallen into corruption and collapsed. The Hand's M.O. could be summized as such—meddle in a town’s affairs, settle disputes, convert new followers, burn some witches, and then move on.
