The Empire's Inquisition

[frankdh 2418]

THE EMPIRE’S INQUISITION

---

 

 

 

---

 

    Formed in late 1779 after the passing of the Inferi Act, the Inquisition’s purpose is to properly combat the Inferi threat, therefore allowing for an efficient structure for the many pieces of the Empire to work together seamlessly and maintain solid footing and ensure a common goal. 

 

    The Inquisitor-General, who holds that office on an ad hoc basis, stands as the head of the Empire’s Inquisition with executive authority granted by the Imperial Diet, and directs all policies pertaining to the Empire’s place in the Inferi Crusade with the prerogative of the Crown. As of current, the Inquisitor-General is the Princess Imperial, Anne Augusta.

 

   The Inquisition provides a platform for the close collaboration of government and the armies of the Empire. With such a collaboration, we provide the strongest defense for our Empire and the realm of Arcas against the Inferi threat, as well as ensuring that information on the Inferi makes it across every corner of the Empire, and to each and every one of her citizens.

 

I. With the cooperation of the Empire’s armies, territory defense will be granted to those affected by the hostile forces. This may extend beyond Imperial vassals, with an emphasis on a collective resistance.

 

II. Stipend of 300 minas for every ballista built to defend the empire, which may also be used to aid outside nations.

III. Assigned scouts will be delegated and responsible for the recording of new intelligence. The information collected is to be sent back to the Inquisition, for dissemination as necessary.
 

TO THE CITIZENRY:

 

   Above all else, avoid the Inferi, and avoid attacking them outright. The demons are confirmed to have the ability to use our resources to adapt, to learn from their attackers, and to go as far as to harvest the corpses and souls of the dead, growing in power. 

 

   Demons are intelligent and are capable of exploiting Descendants in order to make deals. They may promise knowledge, or some boon of worth, but it always comes with a price too great to pay. Do not consort with Inferi.

 

   Korvassa as a continent has become the foothold of The Inferi in our world, and as such, citizens should avoid travelling here unless explicitly told otherwise by the proper authorities.

 

   Malflame is a demonic fire the Inferi weaponize against the descendants, which has the ability to affect the victim in supernatural ways beyond just that of a burn. To avoid such harm, be sure to equip yourself with a face-covering if you are ever in an altercation against a demon.

 

 

INVOLVE YOURSELF:

 

• Consider joining your local branch of the army to have a more hands-on influence in defending the empire, such as the ISA and HRA
• Be aware and spread the word:  Inform friends and family of all public knowledge related to this crisis to avoid finding yourself in dangerous situations.
• Be willing to listen to the orders of military officials in times of crisis.
• Contribute supplies to your local military base, and assist in projects that pertain to the defense of your cities.
• Ultimately, it remains critical all intelligence is being conveyed directly to the Inquisition, until the Inferi scourge is defeated, and it is every man’s responsibility to ensure their discoveries are reported.

Iskander Basrid stares off towards Helena’s skyline and the stars above, clutching his fist he mutters a small promise to the figure aside him. Returning to his room he’d stew over the map on his desk, making a quick few marks he folds the map, standing up and heading for the Bastille.

Bartholomew reads over the message, nodding grimly.

 

“The Princess Imperial was the best choice here, hopefully the citizens head the advice and stay away from the demonic menace.”

The Autumn Druid nods, “At last.. Blessed be.”

    Antanios sits quietly under his tree, reflecting on what he could do. Inferis threatened humanity and all descendents, but he stood no chance against such a powerful undead.

Viktor Lorenz Barclay reads over the missive, slightly surprised. “Hmm, I didn’t expect this. Nobody expected the Empire’s Inquisition!”

"Lead us to victory, Inquisitor-General" Sir Edward Galbraith deeply bows towards the Princess Imperial as he hears the news and offers her his Cascadian blade for the crusade against the inferi.

"People need telling to avoid the inferni?" Brandt Barclay asked idly with a brow arched above his eyes , rather surprised by the looks of him
