The trope doesn't have an image.

As it turns out, there is a Magic: the Gathering card called "Blind Obedience", and I think the picture on the card does a pretty good job of conveying the concept of "absolute, unwavering fealty".

By the time your knees have worn through your robe, you may have begun to learn your place.

Does it work without the caption at the top that says "Blind Obedience"? Not sure why that is there.

Should be fine. Was originally going to use the whole card, except for the file size constraints:

I definitely see obedience. I guess it works if the hood is symbolizing the part about following blindly.

There is a hood?

I think he means on the seated person. A hood usually obscures the wearer's identity, so it would be symbolic of obedience despite not knowing exactly who you're bowing to.

Looks good enough to me, with or without the card title. [tup]

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

+1 for 3. One or two more [tup] votes and we can run with it.
