Core Belief

"God's will must be obeyed above all else, and all actions should be undertaken in service to Him and His purpose."

Worldview

Joan believed the world was a battleground between good and evil, where divine intervention was possible and necessary. She saw France as a divinely ordained kingdom that needed to be liberated from English rule. She believed in the inherent goodness of humanity, but also recognized the pervasive influence of sin and the need for redemption.

Personality

Joan was known for her unwavering faith, courage, and determination. She was deeply pious and believed she was guided by divine voices, yet she possessed a practical and strategic mind on the battlefield. She was also known for her humility and compassion towards the poor and downtrodden.

In Their Own Words

""I am not afraid. I was born to do this.""
""Act, and God will act.""
""One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.""
