The Pathian Inquisition
Introduction
The Pathian Inquisition is the military arm of the Pathian religion. The organisation is primarily devoted to hunting down beings that seek to cause harm on massive scales.
The organisation of the inquisition is split into three orders that focus on differing objectives.
Organisation
The Order of the Sword
The order of the Sword is one of the branches of the Pathian Inquisition. Members of this order handle the more direct objectives that can be solved with martial and magical might. Whether this means slaying demons, performing purifying rituals or dealing with issues that plague villages. Most members of the Order of the Sword travel alone or in pairs, they believe smaller groups allow them to move and react faster.
The Order of the Tome
Members of the Order of the Tome are the more magically inclined members of the Inquisition, they often spend most of their time in the archives, libraries and educational institutions of the Pathian religion and other groups. They are often dispatched, or requested, when a member of the Order of the Sword needs their assistance, especially when encountering anything of a more magical nature.
The Order of the Mind
The most unusual and least known of the three orders, the Order of the Mind are the psychically gifted members of the Pathian inquisition. Most of the members of this order are largely concerned with counteracting the abuse of enchantment magic and psionic abilities. Any time a population comes under the undue influence of powerful mind control, the Order dispatches an inquisitor to investigate.
