Ysandrian Inquisition.
"We are the holiest of the holy, the few to do what father Ysand -really- wants. We will stop at nothing untill he sees his rightfull throne and rules the whole world, controled by our grand people. Anyone who stands in our way shall perish in his holy fires. -High Inquisitor Wyld.
Structure
The Inquisition has a simple chain of command. The initiates and acolytes are lowest in rank and have to follow the superiors around at all times. The Hunters and Seekers are acolytes that have been promoted by showing their faith. The Seekers are let to roam inside the city on their own, but have to report anything back to officers before acting. the Hunters are the same, yet act outside the Empire city.
The highest of rank are Inquisitors and the High Inquisitor.
Public Agenda
The unbelievers shall be brought into our fathers light!
Assets
The Inquisition owns a moutain and a temple, which carries a larger armoury, treasury, small stable, a mini dock with one ship. They own various torturechambers, smaller headquarters and workshops all around the empire along with small parts of Barrkad and western human cultures.
The Inquisitors attire consists of a hooded cloak painted yellow and red, with a half face mask attached to it, depicting Ysand bleeding out of his eyes. Underneath the cloak is a full knight armour with a belt that often contain scrolls or firearms. Their weapons of choice are mainly hammers, firearms, halberds and mystic abilities.
History
The Inquisition was formed by a bunch of zealots who were expelled from the holy order of Ysand, due being too brutal; However many nobles and people of power saw them as an important tool to instill fear and obedience in people.
Mythology & Lore
The Inquisition are not blind believers of Ysand, but rather believers who have missinterpret the kind and warm gods laws and truths. This has caused them to believe in the necessity to burn female mysticans, hunt unbelievers and make them believe, hunt heretics and harass races that are not led by Ysand.
Divine Origins
The Inquisition was born out of the Holy Ysandrian order who are known more for their knowledge and kind treatment than military power. However as an important base of human society, the Ysandrian order grew to be powerfull in all aspects of the Empire. They turned out so big that the most zealous on their own could create a new, effective and powerfull order.
Cosmological Views
The Ysandrian Inquisition firmly believe that the world are humans, and humans right alone to rule. All races who would not see humans as their surperior and who do not choose to believe in Ysand should be purged.
Tenets of Faith
The Ysandrain Inquisition has far too many tenets all over the place to name all of them, but the most important three would be:
Power to Ysand.
Power to Humanity.
Power to the God-Patriarch.
Ethics
The Inquisition are quite lacking in ethics, but follow many of Ysand's values to an extent. They also follow the personal ehtics of the High Inquisitor and sometimes the other inquisitors.
Priesthood
The High Inquisitor most often guide the Inquisition, but higher priests and important nobles within human society often give them contracts for both good and bad reasons. The order still has the High Inquisition decide whether to accept these missions or not, but it rarely happens that they acctualy do not agree to conduct their work.
The High Inquisitor is distinguished from the rest, by his large hammer and full covering face mask, with yellow runes on the forehead.
Granted Divine Powers
The High Inquisitor is highly experienced with yellow runes and often gifts his fellow inquisitors for a good work. The divine they serve however, has never given them anything.
