IMPERIAL JUSTICIARY | The Tahariaen Edict

[trinn 5146]

 

 

Issued and averred by the office of the

PRINCESS-JUSTICIAR

 

HEED LEAL SONS OF HOREN;

 

That the gifts granted by the Aengul Tahariae come not in scrutiny of its maker, whom We acknowledge as a servant of our most divine Lord God, but the conduct in which its mortal agents partake. As such, the endowment of his gifts, sourced from the servant of our Lord, and its use are acknowledged as lawful wherefore they are practiced in reverence to God and in accordance with Our established order of Imperium. The Empire shall not condemn the diligent who seek virtue, healing, discipline and righteous conduct in their pursuit of gifts endowed by Tahariae. Henceforth such practice, in general, is considered peaceable and honest, beneath the Crown of Man. 

 

However, let it not be that devotion to the Servant eclipse devotion to the Lord of whom he serves. Twofold is this warning: firstly, that the agents of Tahariae may not posit this Aengul as a figure of worship, so far as he might supersede our Holy Lord God. Secondly, that the agents of Tahariae may not consider his tenets and way as greater than Imperial Law. For the Laws of the Imperium will remain primary, and in tandem with it the standing of our Temple of The True Faith. 

 

Thereforce, by this edict, the following is so proclaimed: 

 

 

✠ I: ON ITS USE AND PRACTICE

That the use of the art of the Aengul Tahariae is permitted within the Empire of Azuras, so long as its user abides by the articles listed and are a citizen to a sworn Vassal or Province of the Imperium.  However, practitioners have no inherent bearing or authority to detain, harass, or question Citizens of the Empire, and doing so without permit or lawful authority will be considered an act of Vigilante.

 

An Imperial Clerical institution must be created as an extension of Good-will between these newly endowed agents of Tahariae and the Imperial Crown, as charged to the Cleric [REDACTED]. This will be done beneath the office of the Justiciar, as managed through the Grand Inquisitor, and permit them conduct investigations within the Empire of Azuras with lawful authority to the degree of an Inquisitor. Two persons of the Crown’s selection will be undertaken by the Cleric to be taught.

 

✠ II: ON THE WORSHIP OF TAHARIAE

That no practitioner to the art of the Aengul Tahariae may declare him equal to, greater than, or sovereign above our Lord God. That any might elevate him, will incur the brand of heresy and be brought to heel in answer of our Imperial Crown and Church. 

 

✠ III: ON  THE LAW OF MAN

That no singular practitioner, or joined congregation, may compel obedience to Tahariae in contradiction to Imperial Law, or other recognised Vassal authority. Any preaching which encourages sedition, or rejection of lawful Imperial Authority, and otherwise elevates their personal tenet over Imperial Law, shall be investigated under charges of subversion and High Treason.

 

✠ IV: ON HARM INCURRED

That the use of the Art of Tahariae in incurring harm, so much as it harms an Imperial Citizen or Official without due cause, will result in branding upon their forehead alongside its other respective punishments beneath Imperial Law. All those branded may not practice the Art within Imperial Land, lest resolved with a permit from the Imperial Justiciar or Emperor of Azuras. 

 

✠ V: ON THE AGENTS OF MALCHEDIAEL

For the belief of Tahariae does brand the Templar Knights of Saint Malchediael blemished. Any practitioner of Tahariae which draws first blood, without due cause and for the sole pursuit of their rank as blemished, against agents of Malchediael will be marked seditious. 

 

 

AVE IMPERIUM!

A Member of the synod sighed sadly upon reading this missive he much preferred it when the empire was doing the maleficar oppressing for them

[Chimeraof1999 1194]

A member of the Synod questions the inconsistency compared to other deific magics.
"Templars, shamans and druids can run around just fine yet the most promising wave of possibly GOOD PEOPLE is too far for them. I will not lie, everyday I am agreeing with the Orcs more and more, the descendants claiming to be God's chosen have lost God's wisdom and love."

The creature would shake his skeletal head before turning to the disagreeing faction.

"You can see why I am mad right?"
