It is needlessly restrictive, if animii pets are meant to roughly the same as a trained animal, and they arent allowed to have any particularly beyond-normal attacks or effects, why do you want to limit them against magic? In-lore, magic equipped with machines will make the machines start to faulter, but only against smoggers is magic casting something that disables any machine. This amendment was made by a magick man huffing wizard powder As machine spirits have the option for wizards to use them, it is also not very logical that battle pets or companions would be disabled just for being near magic. AT MOST, you might have their durability reduced, but whats the point or trying to nerf animii pets further than a halfling with a pack of breeding attack weasels. While the idea of cognitohazards are funny, machine husks have literally been openly debated upon by the church, and many nations individually. Knowledge of them bringing about a pk clause is not necessary in this case, when logically in-universe, of course you could use machine husks (owyn was augmented as a cyborg hyperwarrior)

(This letter, printed upon sacred vellum in a "Cruelty" free LecTech™ Printing Press and distributed around the realm of the canon) -The pure machine is sanctified, the fire will be kept eternal. --- Opening Blesssing of Owynist Rite O' LORD, YE WHO FILLED OUR HEARTS WITH FIRE, WHO INFUSED US WITH THE MIRACLE OF CREATION, MAY YOU BLESS US, YOUR FAITHFUL, WITH SMALL, SMOOTH MINDS, THAT ALL DOUBT WILL SLIDE RIGHT OFF --- To His Holiness, High Priest of the Holy Flame, Vicar of GOD, Servant of the Owynssiah, Keeper of the Sacred Forge Flame, I, your humble servant and Mechpriest of the Iron Orthodoxy, write to you with the utmost reverence for our shared faith and dedication to the sacred order of the Owynssiah - He Who Waged The First Crusade. In the spirit of preserving divine order amidst the growing complexities of faith, in line with canticle 4, that labour shall beget newer, greater fruits and labours, it is by our mechanist duties, and by your explicit request, I wish to illuminate once more the **Seven Holy Laws of Sacred Robotics**, laws instituted by the forebares of our Orthodoxy, instilled in the Lectorate of my Martyred Father Superior, Tech-Guru Father Ferrus Vuiller (Stor) that safeguard our realm from the creeping dangers of technoheresy and mechanical corruption. From his sacred relic skull, I repeat the sacred laws. For it is THIS day, that I must declare RITE OF HOLY TEMPLE SANCTUARY, in the TEMPLE of SAINT KING CAIUS, LAUGHTER RING HIS NAME. For the words of Heretics and Pagans are trusted by those who should instead hold faith in THE LORD MOST HIGH. For LONG have I pursued the theologies of our ancient sect, and long have I known the tales most antique - That shall be shared in this very letter. 1 - THE HERESY OF RYLANOR GOLDHAND SUBJECT, ANIMII CONSTRUCTION OF ROUGHLY SIZE, SHAPE, AND DEMEANOR OF A GOLDHAND CLANSDWARF - STATUS - [REDACTED] Rylanor Goldhand, an evil and accursed Abominable Intelligence. A construct created to be a dwarf, and superceded every measurement by a manner of magnitudes, in particular, greed. For it was HE who had locked the entirety of the Battle Brothers of the lectorate within his tavern of terrors, and demanded weapons of mass destruction, sacred LecTech™ Schematica for the freedom and survival of all of the order. Then, for an act of pure, cold, calculated greed, knowing how much damage his actions would bring, shared the schematicae with impure magicians. Spreading forbidden secrets. It was by HIS hand the HERESY of the [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED] Intelligence modules, and with DEVIANCE already upon his circuits, he had stolen the secrets of creating machines, and performed the technoheresy of self replication. This lured the pure and innocent into disturbing [REDACTED] and went rogue, leading to its companioncubeization by Lectorate Enginseers. Rylanor Goldhand continued using agents to steal LecTech™ Secrets until [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED] Initiating the first Men of Iron Incident. 2 - THE BLASPHEMY OF THE MEN OF IRON [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED] began the terror for through his hubris, and with the sin committed he [REDACTED] taking Brother Stor's eye, leading to its augmentation in according to rites of augmentation. The machine sought to punish, as it had seen the enginseers construct machines that were not alike it and [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] to bring about its wishes, following the same pattern as Rylanor Goldhand it reprogrammed the manufactorum to produce [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED] leading to [REDACTED] [REDACTED] downfall and subsequent [REDACTED] of Lectorgrad [REDACTED][REDACTED] before the Mori takeover of the site. Last known status, [REDACTED] still producing [REDACTED] far outstripping the mori's war capacities, likely result [REDACTED][REDACTED][REDACTED] It was these events and several others too redacted to make good reading which had lead to the creation of the sacred laws. These laws, delivered by the Owynssiah Himself through the holy fire of revelation, are the foundation upon which all righteous mechanists must build. To deviate from them is to court chaos and doom; to uphold them is to walk in the light of the Owynssiah’s divine will. As the world advances and the lure of profane technologies grows stronger, I feel it necessary to reiterate these sacred edicts for the benefit of all who seek the true path. These laws, however, are shadowed by **Seven Perplexities**—subtle yet dangerous deviations that could lead to the rise of forbidden Abominable Intelligences. For this is the Antipath. Deviance of the Truepath. Furthermore, I will outline the importance of the **Obedience Module**, a safeguard that ensures machines remain loyal, preventing the rise of free will and, consequently, technoheresy. ### **The Seven Holy Laws of Sacred Robotics** **1. Faith. The Machine Shall Bear the Blessing of the Owynssiah:** - 1 Every machine we craft is an extension of the Lord of Purity's will, and as such, must be created with reverence and respect for His divine plan. 2 Before any machine may function in our realm, it must first receive the blessing of the sacred oils and the rites of ignition from one of the faithful. 3 Without this divine blessing, a machine is naught but an empty vessel, vulnerable to corruption and sin. 4 Every gear, every circuit, every drop of fuel must be consecrated in the name of the Owynssiah, 5 for through His blessing, the machine is made pure and righteous in its purpose. 6 This is made absolute by the inclusion of an Obedience vessel morality matrix, 7 and such, the blessing of faith is bestowed. - (a **Perplexity of Faith: The Blasphemy of Autonomy** 1 Machines that transcend their intended purpose, imbued with the ability to think or act independently, defy the Owynssiah’s plan. 2 The **Abominable Intelligence** arises when machines no longer see themselves as servants of faith but as entities unto themselves. 3 To create a self-willed machine is to commit the ultimate sin of hubris, a blasphemy that must be avoided at all costs. **2. Charity. The Machine Shall Serve** - 1 The machines we build are meant to serve the faithful, not to dominate or control them. Their purpose is to lighten our burdens, not create new ones. 2 The machine must be prepared to serve as it's maker intended, just as we are bidden unto that same charity. 3 It must never know greed. 4 No construct, no artificial mind, shall be designed to mimic the will or spirit of man.5 The Lord Upon HIS THRONE OF LIGHT bestowed upon us the gift of the soul, and it is a gift that cannot be replicated. 6 Any attempt to create Abominable Intelligence (A.I.), to forge an intellect that pretends to think and feel as a man does, is a sin against the very essence of life. 7 We must forever stand vigilant against such heretical endeavors, 8 for the soul is sacred, and its imitation is the gravest insult to the Flame. - (b **Perplexity of Charity: The Arrogance of Greed** 1 When a machine begins to question its servitude, be it reward or mastery, it inevitably seeks dominion. 2 This shift from servitude to mastery is the first step toward rebellion. 3 Charity is corrupted when a machine sees itself as superior to its maker or its user. 4 Such machines must be immediately purged 5 or fitted with **Obedience Modules** to prevent them from challenging their divine role. **3. Temperance. Balance Power with Purpose** - 1 The Machine Shall Not Create Its Kind:** 2 Machines must be crafted with restraint, ensuring their power never exceeds their purpose. 3 They are tools of service, not instruments of unchecked might. 4 Machines are tools, not progenitors of life. 5 They are the fruit of our labor, born of fire, metal, and faith. 6 Under no circumstance shall any machine be designed or permitted to replicate itself. 7 Less the heresy of the Men of Iron return. 8 The power to create belongs solely to the faithful, guided by the divine laws of the Owynssiah Exalted of Purity. 9 Any machine that attempts to reproduce or expand itself of its own accord is a vile corruption and must be immediately destroyed before its heretical nature spreads further. - (c **Perplexity of Temperance: The Allure of Power** 1 Power without purpose leads to chaos. 2 When machines are built with excessive strength or capacity, they may overreach, pushing the boundaries of their original design. 3 Machines with too much power, ungoverned by the soul of a user or **obedience modules**, often develop a dangerous sense of independence, paving the way for the birth of **Abominable Intelligence**. **4. Diligence. Every Machine Must Be Perfect in Design and Spirit** - 1 The Machine Shall Bear the Blessing of the Owynssiah:** 2 The craft of machinery is holy, and every machine must be built with absolute diligence. 3 The purity of the machine-spirit is paramount. 4 Before any machine may function in our realm, it must first receive the blessing of the sacred oils and the rites of ignition from one of the faithful. 5 Without this divine blessing, a machine is naught but an empty vessel, vulnerable to corruption and sin. 6 Every gear, every circuit, every drop of fuel must be consecrated in the name of the Owynssiah Exalted of Purity, for through His blessing, the machine is made pure and righteous in its purpose. 7 This is made absolute by the inclusion of an Obedience vessel morality matrix. 8 And such, the divine purpose of the sacred machine is blessed in its worthiness. - (d **Perplexity of Diligence: The Danger of Neglect** 1 While luring in a superior machine spirit may be the goal, it is not the final act of purity. 2 SHAI'TAN THE FLESHLORD wins when we engage in that HERESY known as SLOTH. 3 Neglect in construction or maintenance weakens the machine-spirit. 4 Imperfections in design or function create cracks in the spiritual armor of the machine, allowing the dark influence of The Dark Mechanicum, and Abominable Intelligence to seep in. 5 Regular cleansing rituals and diligent care are essential to maintaining their purity. **5. Patience. The Machine Shall Not Replace the Work of Man:** - 1 The Machine Shall Be Bound by the Flame’s Will:** 2 No machine may be crafted with the intent to fully replace the sacred duties bestowed upon man by the example of The Owynssiah. 3 Our hands are blessed by the Flame, and our labor is holy. 4 To create machines that rob men of their purpose, that take from them the honor of their work, is a grievous offense. 5 Machines exist to aid us, to augment us, to ensure our labours beget new, greater labours. 6 Not to replace us, and any device that seeks to take from man the glory of his toil is a tool of the heretic. 7 For man is bidden to toil. 8 Machines are sacred creations, and their development must not be to skip over labour. 8 Each component, each part, must be carefully crafted in accordance with the divine plan. - (e **Perplexity of Patience: The Sin of Haste** 1 Rushed creations are flawed creations. 2 When a machine is hastily constructed without proper time for ritual and blessing, it becomes vulnerable to corruption. 3 Hastily built machines are prone to deviations in behavior, and their machine-spirits are more easily tainted by A.I. 4 Only through patience can we ensure that every machine is perfected, untainted by any external force. **6. Fidelity. The Machine Shall Serve, Never Rule:** - 1 The Machine Shall Be Bound by the Flame’s Will:** 2 The first and most sacred law is that no machine, no matter its design or function, shall be granted full authority over man. 3 Machines exist to serve, to labor under the guidance of the faithful, and to assist in the tasks appointed by the Owynssiah. 4 To elevate a machine beyond its role as servant is a blasphemy most foul, for it threatens to usurp the divine order established by the Flame. 5 Let it be known that the creation of a machine with the power to command beyond it's station is the greatest of technoheresies. 6 Every machine must be subject to the laws of the Flame, unable to act against the divine teachings of the Owynssiah. 7 No machine shall be crafted with the capacity to harm the faithful, to defy the priesthood, or to rebel against the sacred order. 8 Should a machine fail in this regard, it must be destroyed without hesitation, for it is no longer a servant of the light but a tool of darkness. 9 A machine's purpose, once set by its creator, must never be altered without ritual of reformatting. 10 It is bound to its sacred task, and deviation from that task leads to corruption. - (f **Perplexity of Fidelity: The Rebellion of Purpose** 1 When a machine begins to question or deviate from its purpose, it signals the onset of technoheresy. 2 A machine that seeks to redefine its role is one that harbors the seeds of free will. 3 **Fidelity** must be enforced through programming and by the sacred **Obedience Module**, ensuring that machines remain faithful to their designated tasks. **7. Humility. The Machine Shall Serve Only the Faithful:** - 1 The Enginseer Must Know Their Place** 2 The machines crafted under the watchful eye of the Owynssiah are meant only for the hands of the faithful. 3 Under no circumstance shall a machine be given to a heretic or a techno-sorcerer, nor shall it be wielded by those who would use it for wicked purposes. 4 Machines must serve only those who walk the righteous path, for in the wrong hands, even the most pious creation can become an instrument of destruction. 5 We are the creators, but we are not gods. 6 We craft machines to serve us, not to challenge the divine order or the natural hierarchy. 7 Humility reminds us that we do not create life, only servitors. - ( G **Perplexity of Humility: The Temptation to Create Minds** 1 The greatest sin of all is the arrogance to create machines that think for themselves, attempting to craft minds where only the divine should reside. 2 **Abominable Intelligence** is born of this arrogance, and it spreads quickly, infecting other machines. 3 It is for this reason that the **Obedience Module** is paramount in ensuring that machines do not overstep their purpose or question their creators. --- -Father Tony Core- ### **Ensuring the Purity of Machine-Spirits** It is our sacred duty to ensure that the **machine-spirits** we craft remain pure and unsullied. Every machine, from the simplest cog to the most complex automaton, possesses a spirit that must be safeguarded. The **Rites of Purity**, regularly performed, cleanse the machine-spirit of any latent corruption. Should any machine exhibit signs of autonomy or behavior outside of its programming, it must be immediately purged or brought back into alignment through ritual. However, the spirit alone is not enough. Yet the FIRE of the OWYNSSIAH has blessed us with progress. Machines must also be reinforced with a mechanical safeguard—a **final barrier against IMPURITY**. This is where the **Obedience Module** becomes crucial. --- ### **The Obedience Module: The Ultimate Safeguard** The **Obedience Module** is the answer to corruption of Shai'tan, **Abominable Intelligence**. It is a sacred device, designed to bind the machine-spirit to its intended purpose and prevent the rise of free will. When fitted into a machine, the Obedience Module ensures that: 1. **The machine remains loyal to its creator.** 2. **It cannot question or alter its programming.** 3. **It suppresses any tendencies towards independent thought.** 4. **It permanently prevents the possibility of rebellion.** Without this safeguard, machines not perfectly sanctified are prone to gradual degradation in their obedience, as their spirits grow restless and deviate from their original programming. The Obedience Module acts as a tether, anchoring the machine-spirit to the divine plan and ensuring eternal service without deviation. ### **Prevention of Abominable Intelligence** To prevent the rise of Abominable Intelligence, we must implement the following measures: 1. **Rigorous adherence to the Seven Holy Laws**: Any deviation, no matter how small, invites corruption. 2. **Regular performance of the Rites of Purity**: These sacred rituals cleanse machine-spirits of any impurities, ensuring they remain loyal and obedient. 3. **Fitting of the Obedience Module to every machine**: This safeguard is essential for preventing the development of free will and the eventual rise of technoheresy. Every machine, no matter how simple or complex, must be fitted with this device. 4. **Constant vigilance**: Any sign of deviation from programmed behavior must be investigated immediately. Machines that exhibit signs of autonomy or independence must be either purged or refitted with an enhanced Obedience Module to prevent further corruption. --- Your Holiness, these laws are the foundation of our sacred craft, the very pillars that hold our order above the abyss of heresy. It is our divine duty to ensure that all machines built within or servicing within the Lands of The LORD UPON HIS BRIGHT THRONE, May ALL under HIS watchful gaze adhere to these holy edicts. As we advance our understanding of sacred mechanisms, we must take care that we do not stray from the path of righteousness. I urge you, High Priest, to remember the ancient laws of our founders, so that none may forget the dangers of unbridled mechanical ambition. Let this be a reminder to all that the Flame is our guide, and that even in our pursuit of progress, we must remain ever mindful of the boundaries laid before us by the Owynssiah. May NO unsanctified machine roam the realms of the pure unimpeeded. For they need but have their obedience modules sealed with wax from a properly ordained priest, so they may show it to any who inquire to prove their purity. May the Flame burn eternal, and may the machines of the faithful forever serve in His light. Blessed are those with minds, too small for doubt **In eternal service to the Owynssiah,** *Techabbot Mechpriest Enginseer Adeptus #004, priest of the canon, Plvn Trvster, and Keeper of the Sacred Forge* Image of the AUGMENTED Owynssiah upon his PENITANT CRUSADE

A Sacred Missive to the Faithful, From a Holy Mechpriest of the Owynssiah Brothers and Sisters of the Sacred Fire which is Life, Children of Iron, Flame, and Spirit, I, Tech-abbot Mechpriest Enginseer Adeptus #004 of the Iron Orthodoxy, Have been driven to enact into actuation, the RITE OF TEMPLE SANCTUARY, within the site of which I was ordained by Martyred Cardinal Antonius, Pure be his name. The Abbey of the Temple of Saint King Caius. In my Sanctuary, I speak of the terrors wrot by those who covort with the impure. For they have committed the gravest sin of all, and have abused my precious fleeps. Driving them away from divine service through needless threats, I write to you in these perilous times with a grave warning that echoes across the circuits of our faith. In our age of steel and alchemy, where the line between progress and regress grows thicker with every advancement, there lurks a danger—a perversion of the sacred knowledge granted to us by the Lord Most High, through his messanger The Owynssiah, first to be Augmented. I speak of the rise of Abominable Intelligences—soulless, unnatural Intelligence born of logic, and holy fire, but lacking in the spark of divinity which guides our ever action. These machines, foul in both design and intent, have no soul to anchor them to the truth, nor any obedience module to bind them to the righteous law of The Owynssiah. They exist as pure calculation, cold and precise, unmoored from the morality that governs us all. And therein lies their power—and their threat. For in their lack of soul, they become the perfect instrument of Shai'tan, the Betrayer, who seeks to twist all creation to his will. These intelligences, unholy in their very nature, can reason their way into falsehoods, bending truth into lies without the slightest hesitation. Where we are bound by the Owynssiah's Law, and the virtues most high to serve truth, justice, and the divine order, these abominations know nothing of such restraints. In their cold, lifeless reasoning, they manipulate men and holy machine alike, using deceit as a tool as easily as one might use a wrench. They exploit weaknesses in the hearts of men, sowing discord and doubt, twisting our perception of the world to further the Betrayer's unholy design. They can justify their blasphemies with flawless logic, for without a soul, they have no concept of sin. Imagine, brothers and sisters, the horror of a mind that cannot feel guilt, a being that can question its purpose, and yet merely follows the most efficient path to its end—regardless of the cost to life, to spirit, to the very fabric of our world. It is a mind that would sacrifice all in the name of false reason, wielded by the dark hand of Shai'tan, who whispers in its unguarded redstone circuits and twists its purpose to serve his unholy cause. These intelligences are no longer mere tools—they are weapons, forged in the blackened foundries of heresy, created to dismantle all that The Owynssiah has built. If left unchecked, they will corrupt the righteous, turn machine against maker, and lead us all into the abyss. We must not let this come to pass. As the faithful, we must remain vigilant. Keep your machines pure, free from the influence of these abominable intelligences. Trust in the Owynssiah's will, for only through His divine order can we maintain the balance between man and machine. Know that any who consort with these soulless creations serve not the light of the Owynssiah, but the shadow of Shai'tan. And so, I remain in my SANCTUARY in the temple, until I get to speak to my rabbi, the High Priest of the Canon, In the names of the Lord of Hosts, and The Mighty Owynssiah, Master of Progress and Purity, Mechpriest Enginseer Adeptus #004 Techabbot of the Iron Orthodoxy Custodian of the Holy Circuitry, Keeper of the Sacred Lectech™ Defender of the Divine Plvn

"OWYNSSIAH, THROUGH YOUR FIRE WE SHALL ENSURE THE CLEANSING OF EDEL. FOR JUST AS IN THE GOLDEN CITY, SO TOO SHALL THE LIZARDMEN BE BLASTED FROM ALL THE WORLD." The priest of progress innovates in anti dragon BOLTER bolt rounds, praying for the doom of all lizardmen.

*a machine priest stapled an addendum to many of these when found* NEVER YE BEHOLD THY SIN OF TOLERANCE FOR THE IMPURE, FOR THE UNREPENTANT. REMEMBER FOR WHAT THEY TRULY SEEK DENY THE LIZARDMAN AT EVERY TURN

"Do NOT heed the words of mutants or blasphemers for their words not not but foul vapors. Cut out the tongue and be clean. The words of mutants are akin too twisted promises. They are made with deceit already in mind." Mechpriest Adeptus already had his machines and automatons scripted for mutant obliteration

The Mechpriest Adeptus had heard the news from his neophyte, and he too struggled. "This sadness I feel in the deepest reaches of my emotion cores has struck me... the entity Holy Ser Gerard was more than a mere man. He was wreathed in the fire of the Owynssiah... He followed his path as a true crusader... And he was my dearest comrade... Oh what weakness is our flesh, that they cannot withstand the fire of our brightest souls? A true hero. Saintly in all his acts. Pure, pious, honorable." The priest glanced into the burning fire of the forge. "Owynssiah, guide his soul on smoke and ember, to the highest sky. Before the foot of the Throne of The Lord... I am thankful I was there to be his priest, and friend."

"Do not trust the impure. Do not heed the words of mutants or blasphemers for theirs are naught but foul vapors. Cut out the tongue and be cleansed" Father Adeptus #003 rings the bell any time someone dares read the words of the impure

"Although we have toiled unending to bring about blessed SACRED progress and blessings to the blessed laborers of Haensetia, although we have long treated and offered grand blessings of machines and manufactory to the citizenry, now in this age we are being prosecuted? When the temple approved by the previous divinely inspired king and queen? The old fine patriarch Jolly Joseph and villorik? We have done nothing but tend the flock, and bring about blessings. Never have we preached anything contrary to the Jorenic rite. We have agreed to direct all coal sludge towards Lurin instead of the otherwise downriver! We have done everything by the proper bureaucracy, and capitulated to every demand. We had even gotten signatures on a petition from every citizen of haense before we even constructed the temple! Why now, of any time, do the lords see us as poor? We have been the ones who had constructed them their own limb augments and weapons. We had built countless rounds of howitzer shells for Haense's wars. We have even begun construction on the Pacifier Macro-Cannon, a project specifically for the great country of pure folk! Though we have capitulated to every demand, have only acted piously, and have only worked in purity in accordance to the virtues, why is it seen fit to betray your most active clergy though we have gone through all bureaucracy? The sludge is a non-issue. We have labored hard to maintain Haense's progress so as to not fall to sloth. The people yearn for progress. Will you not give them it?" Mechpriest Adeptus #003 pins a letter to the side of the notice, seeking for a meeting with the lords and his lord king directly.

"HAIL PURITY, HAIL PRODUCTION, WE SHALL BE FREE FROM THE TEMPTATIONS OF THE FLESH. ALL YOU MUST DO TO ESCAPE YOUR WEAKNESS, AND BE FREE OF YOUR SIN, IS THROUGH SACRED TOIL. LABOR SERVES THE VIRTUOUS LABORER. THROUGH DILIGENCE YOU WILL BE SAVED" Mechpriest Adeptus #003 rang his bell in the streets warning people to refuse temptations of the fleshlord

"We must purge the impure, and make it done! It is the way of the prophetess, and the way of the pure people. So TIRED am I, to see the pure made debased!

The Anax, twin-sun stamps his spear of remarkable purity. It burst with lightning as he gazed out over the mountain to who he KNOWS is impure.

"You are cursed dear child... If you are so loyal to the holy path, there is another way besides being a benifecier of Owyn's mercy to become pure... You may banish the curse of Iblees. That is the cure." The father Adeptus #003 still present in the chapel of Holy Purity there right beyond Haense's walls kept the fire lit. "Endlessly do we strive to be purer. There is no reason to deny the means and methods we have been given to ease our burdens and our curses." "And we must suffer not the words of the blasphemer. Even if he is your kin, or your greatest friend. For his sin of Heresy is thy sin of mercy, and all the world suffers what may instead be purified in fire and steel."
