The way I figure it, Aequitas is much more eye for an eye and fits the Lawful alignment of a Paladin.  Veritas fits more of the Good side.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Alignment<br/>Choose an alignment:<br/><br/>Lawful<br/>Deny mercy to a criminal or unbeliever.<br/><br/>Good<br/>Endanger yourself to protect someone weaker than you.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Plus the Boondock Saints reference ^_^<br/><br/>I'm thinking that Aequitas has an ex-girlfriend named Vindictas who has since become the evil goddess of revenge, delighting particularly in vengeance for a scorned lover.  Her followers stole away the Brand of Justice and it hasn't been seen since.  Beyond that, nobody knows where it could be.
