Emmanovi: corrected name of temple, linked to Miaren page

==Overview==
<div style="float: right; width: 250px;">{{CaptionedImage|file=Assembly Navarr.png|caption=This title is appointed by the Navarr Assembly|width=250px}}</div>
The Dreamspeaker of Seren is an [[Imperial title]] awarded to a citizen of [[Navarr]]. The Dreamspeaker oversees the [[Miaren#Temple_of_the_Waking_Dream|Temple of the Waking Dream]], the great work that transformed Seren into the ''City of Dreams'', which was [[Construct_City_of_Dreams|commissioned]] by the Senate at the Summer Solstice 386YE and was [[Dream_on|finally completed]] just before the Autumn Equinox 388YE.

__NOTOC__

==Responsibilities==
The Dreamspeaker of Seren is responsible for overseeing the Temple of the Waking Dream and looking to the prominence and prosperity of the city of Seren and its pilgrims. In addition, if the Temple were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Dreamspeaker to deal with those threats.

==Powers==
===Liao, Tea and Masks===
As a [[sinecure]], the Dreamspeaker receives a regular income of 15 doses of liao each season. They also receive 5 doses of an unusual preparation called ''asphodel tea'' - this potent concoction made with vinum functions in a similar way to liao for the purposes of providing [[Dedication#Dreams|dreams]].

Additionally, the Dreamspeaker is presented with a ''Dreamer's Mask'' each Winter Solstice. This magical item, not known to Imperial artisans, allows a priest to guide a target's spiritual dreams using the dedication of the target instead of their own.

==Appointment==
This title is appointed during the Autumn Equinox. The Dreamspekear of Seren is [[appointment|appointed]] by a [[judgement]] of [[Appointment]] in the [[Navarr]] [[Assembly#The_National_Assemblies|national assembly]].

The title may only be held by a Navarr citizen. They can be revoked by the [[Assembly#General_Assembly|General Assembly]], the Navarr Assembly, and the [[Assembly#Assembly_of_the_Nine|Assembly of the Nine]].

Rewarding

2026-09-25T14:08:25Z

Emmanovi: /* Virtue Fund */ added note about minimum threshold for reporting names in donations

{{Synod Judgement Summary|General Assembly|Lesser Majority}}
{{CaptionedImage|file=Magdalena di Sarvos.jpg|title=The Virtue Fund allows the Synod to offer material reward to the virtuous|caption=The [[Prosperity]] [[Assembly#The_Virtue_Assemblies|Assembly]] in particular often pays close attention to a judgement of rewarding.|align=left|width=450}}
==Overview==
The General [[Assembly]] of the [[Synod]] controls the Virtue Fund - a pool of money, Bourse materials and True Liao ([[mithril]], [[weirwood]] and [[white granite]]) endowed to the Synod so that they may directly reward virtuous behaviour. The mainstay of the money in the fund usually comes from the auction of a dose of [[liao#True Liao|true liao]] but it is supplemented with donations of Imperial currency from wealthy citizens who wish to use the benefits of their prosperity to encourage virtue. A small number of these citizens are sufficiently wealthy to donate small quantities of mithril, weirwood or white granite, trusting the Synod to ensure these are put towards virtuous causes.
__TOC__
The Virtue Fund exists to allow the Synod to encourage virtue, and to reward the virtuous. Judgements of Rewarding can only be raised in the General Assembly - despite historical interest from the Prosperity Assembly in bringing the Fund directly under their control. At various points the [[Senate]] has chosen to supplement the money raised by donations and auction with a [[New_Imperial_titles#Stipend|stipend]] from the [[Imperial treasury]]. This practice began in the reign of [[Empress Teleri]] whose supporters argued that the Imperial Synod was best placed to ensure that the Empire's wealth was distributed to worthy and virtuous causes. The popularity of this practice has waxed and waned, but during the reign of [[Emperor Hugh]] the existing stipend, already little more than a token sum, was entirely abrogated.

It is not possible to donate anything other than true liao, money, or wains to the Virtue fund.

==Judgement==
Any member of the Synod may submit a judgement of rewarding for money or wains for consideration by the General Assembly. The judgement must state the size and type of the proposed reward. A single judgement may ask for money or wains of a single type - it is not possible to request money and wains, or two different kinds of materials, in one judgement.

A judgement of rewarding requires a lesser majority to pass. Every judgement of rewarding shares the same period of [[Judgement#Scrutiny|scrutiny]]. All such judgements close at 6pm on Saturday, and it is not possible for the [[Cardinal|Cardinals]] to request [[Cardinal#Further_Scrutiny|further scrutiny]] of a judgement of rewarding. Owing to this restriction, a judgement of rewarding must be raised by 3pm on Saturday or it cannot be accepted.

It is not possible to raise a judgement of rewarding for a dose of True Liao. In the rare occurrence that a dose enters the Virtue Fund, then a Judgement of Rewarding will be raised directly by the [[Tribune of the Synod]].

<div style="float:right;"><quote by="Marcher Proverb">Better to earn a ring than be given a crown</quote></div>

==Outcome==
After the scrutiny period closes at 6pm Saturday, each judgement is assessed, and funds provided in order from the judgement with the highest margin to that with the lowest margin. If there is insufficient money or wains remaining in the fund to meet the full amount requested, then only what is remaining will be distributed. In the event of two or more judgements having the same margin and there being insufficient funds remaining to support them both, then the remaining amount is split equally between those judgements, with any remainder staying in the fund for the next summit. It is not possible for the Virtue Fund to go into debt. If there are no funds or wains of the requested type available, the judgement can still pass, but nothing will be provided.

The Tribune will deduct the money or wains from the Virtue Fund, to be collected by the Member of the Synod who raised the judgement. These will be available to collect from the Tribune of the Synod in the Hub from 7:30pm Saturday. It is '''not''' possible for a judgement to specify that a reward be made at some future time beyond the close of scrutiny. The money or wains become immediately available and should be collected from the Tribune as soon as is practical. If the sum is not collected by the end of the summit, the Tribune will make arrangements to send the money or wains to the raising Member (OC: uncollected rewardings will be placed into the inventory of the raising priest and will go into their character pack at the next event they attend).

It is common for individuals to ask for money or wains from the Virtue Fund for a specific goal. It is perfectly acceptable to reference the goal in the judgement of rewarding, but this is not legally binding. On receipt of the funds, they become the legal property of the raising Member of the Synod who may dispose of them as they choose. In the rare event that the raising member of the Synod dies before they are able to collect, then the Tribune will instead use their discretion to disburse the funds towards the person, group or cause expressed in the wording of the judgement.

<ic>At the Winter Summit 376YE, Harald Johnson, of the Marches and The Way, called for the General Assembly to reward the Orc Generals with 20 crowns from the Virtue Fund.</ic>

Voting on a judgement to reward a citizen with a dose of true liao also closes at 6pm on Saturday, in the rare case that a dose has been donated this way. The citizen with most votes in their favour may collect the dose from the Tribune from 7:30pm.

==Virtue Fund==
As mentioned, the Virtue Fund is a pool of money and wains endowed to the Synod so that they may directly reward virtuous behaviour. The majority of the money that makes up the virtue fund comes from the auction of a dose of [[liao#True Liao|true liao]] at each summit, but it is supplemented with donations from wealthy citizens who wish to use the benefits of their prosperity to encourage virtue.

The size of the fund is calculated at the start of each summit and displayed in the Civil Service Hub. It includes donations made by private citizens (including through [[#Counting Houses|counting houses]]), bequests from virtuous benefactors, and the funds raised by the auction of true liao at the previous summit. Any remainder after the end of the summit remains in the fund.

Any Imperial citizen can donate money or wains to the virtue fund by speaking to one of a [[Tribune of the Synod]] at the Hub. The money or wains will be added to the Virtue Fund at the ''next'' summit, and the name of the benefactor included in public documents about the fund, provided the donation is at least one crown.

* '''A single counting house can be built in each Imperial territory'''
In the months leading up to the Winter Solstice 385YE, the [[architect]] Dialogos of the Isles of the Spires [[Forwards_and_Rewards#Prosperity_and_Posterity|proposed construction of]] a series of counting houses in ten Imperial territories, to collect donations for the Virtue Fund and keep record of these Prosperous donations for posterity. Each of these [[edifice|edifices]] would see a consistent amount of money donated to the Virtue Fund each season, depending on the affluence and propensity of the territory in question. A counting house will only start producing income for the Virtue Fund in the first full season after it is constructed.

Shortly before the Summer Solstice 388YE, the potential for the counting houses was expanded and work done to see them possible to build in ''any'' Imperial territory. There is no benefit to building more than one counting house in a single territory; the donations would simply be split evenly.

As of the start of the Summer Solstice 388YE, six have been commissioned by the Senate - in [[Construct_Semmerholm_Counting_House|Semmerholm]], [[Construct_Tassato_Counting_House|Tassato]], [[Construct_Prosperous_Counting_House_in_Karsk|Karsk]], [[Construct Temeschwar Counting House|Temeschwar]], a [[Forwards_and_Rewards#High_Benefits|more extensive construction]] in [[Construct_Reikos_Counting_House|Reikos]], and one in [[Construct_Prosperous_Counting_House_in_Holberg|Holberg]].

The table to the right shows the counting houses constructed as of the start of the Autumn Equinox 388YE.

Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.

===Judgement 4===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian
* '''Judgement:''' Last summit, Paris of Apulus self-funded and constructed a waystation for foreign pilgrims, extending the reach of the Way. We reward her 15 thrones in recognition of her virtuous labour.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (629-514)

Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.
* '''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (594-0)

Nora's work is quiet work that may oft go unsung, but is no less heroic to explore the skein and help guide the skein of others is the Kallavesi way. As such, we the Wintermark Assembly are proud to entre into the '''Chronicle of Heroes: Nora Falcon's Light.'''

'''Oath from Amberlain to Bregasland''' People of Bregasland! Queen Fisher and her Jotun masters have fled before our soldiers' might, with and Courage. But there will always be would-be conquerors, Jarls and threats to our land, mark me. The Empire's memory may be short, but Marcher grudges and memories are long - the Reeds will not forget, and WE will never abandon Bregasland again. This I swear before the Fens and Marsh. May this oath of Loyalty be the legacy of the Strong Reeds. Bregasland stands!
This is adapted from the Strong Reeds army orders from Summer 385YE

* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian
* '''Judgement:''' Last summit, Paris of Apulus self-funded and constructed a waystation for foreign pilgrims, extending the reach of the Way. We reward her 15 thrones in recognition of her virtuous labour.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (629-514)

Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.
* '''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (594-0)

===Judgement 9===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Aldwyn the Glorious
* '''Judgement:''' In order to enter this into imperial record during an inquisition conducted by Jedidiah Boon, Summer 388YE, Lofyn Bloodcloak recounted the miracle that happened when she first put on the Bloodcloak following its recovery from a century of Thule possession.

Her efforts supporting our national celebrations have helped bring the nation a great sense of pride, our hearthfire continues to be a beacon in the darkness thanks to Nora's efforts, and she has long fought to bolster ambitions of other Winterfolk, to the betterment of our nation. Nora's work is quiet work that may oft go unsung, but is no less heroic to explore the skein and help guide the skein of others is the Kallavesi way. As such, we the Wintermark Assembly are proud to entre into the '''Chronicle of Heroes: Nora Falcon's Light.'''
*'''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (314-10)

'''Oath from Amberlain to Bregasland''' People of Bregasland! Queen Fisher and her Jotun masters have fled before our soldiers' might, with and Courage. But there will always be would-be conquerors, Jarls and threats to our land, mark me. The Empire's memory may be short, but Marcher grudges and memories are long - the Reeds will not forget, and WE will never abandon Bregasland again. This I swear before the Fens and Marsh. May this oath of Loyalty be the legacy of the Strong Reeds. Bregasland stands!
This is adapted from the Strong Reeds army orders from Summer 385YE

===Judgement 4===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian
* '''Judgement:''' Last summit, Paris of Apulus self-funded and constructed a waystation for foreign pilgrims, extending the reach of the Way. We reward her 15 thrones in recognition of her virtuous labour.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (629-514)

* '''Raised By:''' Ames the Amiable of the Pilgrims Guard
* '''Judgement:''' Arlais, Daughter of Mari, plans to build five sinecures at Virtues Rest: four Benefactors, one for each army, and one attached to the Strategos of Highguard. Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.
* '''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (594-0)

===Judgement 9===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Aldwyn the Glorious

Her efforts supporting our national celebrations have helped bring the nation a great sense of pride, our hearthfire continues to be a beacon in the darkness thanks to Nora's efforts, and she has long fought to bolster ambitions of other Winterfolk, to the betterment of our nation. Nora's work is quiet work that may oft go unsung, but is no less heroic to explore the skein and help guide the skein of others is the Kallavesi way. As such, we the Wintermark Assembly are proud to entre into the '''Chronicle of Heroes: Nora Falcon's Light.'''
*'''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (314-10)

'''Oath from Amberlain to Bregasland''' People of Bregasland! Queen Fisher and her Jotun masters have fled before our soldiers' might, with and Courage. But there will always be would-be conquerors, Jarls and threats to our land, mark me. The Empire's memory may be short, but Marcher grudges and memories are long - the Reeds will not forget, and WE will never abandon Bregasland again. This I swear before the Fens and Marsh. May this oath of Loyalty be the legacy of the Strong Reeds. Bregasland stands!
This is adapted from the Strong Reeds army orders from Summer 385YE

* '''Raised By:''' Mael of the Shattered Tower

===Judgement 4===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian
* '''Judgement:''' Last summit, Paris of Apulus self-funded and constructed a waystation for foreign pilgrims, extending the reach of the Way. We reward her 15 thrones in recognition of her virtuous labour.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (629-514)

* '''Judgement:''' Arlais, Daughter of Mari, plans to build five sinecures at Virtues Rest: four Benefactors, one for each army, and one attached to the Strategos of Highguard. Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.

He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.

Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===

* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General

* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat.

* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.

==Recognition==
===Judgement 4===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.
This assembly Recognises Lorenzo as an Exemplar of Pride.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala

The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat.

Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa.

Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.

* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian

* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words

We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.

Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.

Nora's work is quiet work that may oft go unsung, but is no less heroic to explore the skein and help guide the skein of others is the Kallavesi way. As such, we the Wintermark Assembly are proud to entre into the '''Chronicle of Heroes: Nora Falcon's Light.'''

But there will always be would-be conquerors, Jarls and threats to our land, mark me. The Empire's memory may be short, but Marcher grudges and memories are long - the Reeds will not forget, and WE will never abandon Bregasland again. This I swear before the Fens and Marsh. May this oath of Loyalty be the legacy of the Strong Reeds. Bregasland stands!

He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.

Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride.

During the Autumn Equinox 388YE, the Synod raised X judgements
==Change of Doctrine==
===Judgement X===
* '''Assembly:'''
* '''Raised By:''' Erasmo di Tassato
* '''Judgement:'''
* '''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (No-no)
* '''Notes:''' ''</big></div></div>
==Veto==
===Judgement X===
* '''Assembly:'''
* '''Raised By:'''
* '''Judgement:'''
* '''Outcome:''' Not upheld (No-yes)

==Statement of Principle==
===Judgement 3===
* '''Assembly:''' Highborn
* '''Raised By:''' Ames the Amiable of the Pilgrims Guard
* '''Judgement:''' Arlais, Daughter of Mari, plans to build five sinecures at Virtues Rest: four Benefactors, one for each army, and one attached to the Strategos of Highguard. Together producing 48 mana and 16 Orichalcum each season. We seek no materials; those are needed for the Grand Inspiration of the Way. We ask instead for something Highguard possesses in abundance: experience. Our nation holds generations of military knowledge, from soldiers and commanders to chaplains, apothecaries, engineers, quartermasters, and all who sustain an army beyond the battlefield. Arlais intends to break ground in Winter. Help shape the Benefactors Court at Virtues Rest. Tell us what our armies need, where lasting support matters most, and what ingenuity, experience and Virtue might achieve.
* '''Outcome:''' {{GM}} (594-0)

===Judgement 9===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Aldwyn the Glorious
* '''Judgement:''' In order to enter this into imperial record during an inquisition conducted by Jedidiah Boon, Summer 388YE, Lofyn Bloodcloak recounted the miracle that happened when she first put on the Bloodcloak following its recovery from a century of Thule possession. Lofyn Bloodcloak felt the weight of the cloak shift, a small hole had appeared within the lining and within was found the necklace she now wears around which was wrapped the schema which allowed Lofyn to enter the Bloodcloak into Imperial Lore.

===Judgement 11===
* '''Assembly:''' Vigilance
* '''Raised By:''' Haleth Sigeling

Her efforts supporting our national celebrations have helped bring the nation a great sense of pride, our hearthfire continues to be a beacon in the darkness thanks to Nora's efforts, and she has long fought to bolster ambitions of other Winterfolk, to the betterment of our nation. Nora's work is quiet work that may oft go unsung, but is no less heroic to explore the skein and help guide the skein of others is the Kallavesi way. As such, we the Wintermark Assembly are proud to entre into the '''Chronicle of Heroes: Nora Falcon's Light.'''

'''Oath from Amberlain to Bregasland''' People of Bregasland! Queen Fisher and her Jotun masters have fled before our soldiers' might, with and Courage. But there will always be would-be conquerors, Jarls and threats to our land, mark me. The Empire's memory may be short, but Marcher grudges and memories are long - the Reeds will not forget, and WE will never abandon Bregasland again. This I swear before the Fens and Marsh. May this oath of Loyalty be the legacy of the Strong Reeds. Bregasland stands!
This is adapted from the Strong Reeds army orders from Summer 385YE

==Recognition==
===Judgement 4===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Astrid Fjrellrevening Rezia di Tassato
* '''Judgement:''' Lorenzo 'La Volpe' Macelliao von Temeschwar was Prosperous. He was Ambitious. But Pride is the virtue he held closest in his heart, and most clearly embodied in his life's work. He celebrated his successes, proclaimed his past and his home boldly in all his actions, and uplifted his nation and his Empire.
'''Benevolence''': The Empire benefits to this day from his works. The Blood Red Roads may be the biggest endeavour, now feeding the Empire's coffers directly in support of the Vallornguard. But citizens past and present in a dozen territories have personally benefited from his works in coin, mana and liao.
'''Legacy''': A dozen Great Works exist across the Empire, that he funded, designed and built. These Great Edifices Proudly display his name, his guild, and his history, reminding us we should be Proud of where we come from and our achievements.
'''Inspiration''': Even in life, the League Assembly named him an Inspiration, leading to the Colissus of Sarvos' True Consecration as a Sacred Site in his honour. Travellers flock to Sarvos to see this wondrous sight and experience The Partner of Greatness for themselves. To this day, his name is synonymous with grand benevolent works.
'''Pilgrimage''': His great works included travelling the Empire to map and build the Blood Red Roads; the Legacies of Virtue, grand edifices to uplift And Inspire the virtuous in each of the territories they were built in, from Hahnmark to Casinea; as well as several Cathedrals to Pride. This make clear his journey not only to personal Virtue, but The Way as a pillar of that journey for all citizens.
This assembly Recognises Lorenzo as an Exemplar of Pride.

==Sanction==
===Judgement 7===
* '''Assembly:''' Pride
* '''Raised By:''' Jedidiah Boon
* '''Judgement:''' '''Vindication''' Lofyn Bloodcloak, you have committed yourself to the path of Pride. Along it, you have found what all Pilgrims do; the obstacles of other's doubts, the weight of your own mistakes, the blood that soaks the roads beyond Anvil's safety. Your Inspiration is written in your people's Chronicle, in the Regalia you passed to your successors. Your Legacy is to be decided by those who survive you - whether in the Schema that shares your name or the diplomatic affairs you now commit yourself to - but there is no doubt it will endure. You have shown Benevolence in your Oaths to Semmersuaq and your battle against the Jotun. The True Liao you have earned will tell us more about your soul. We live in an age of Miracles; the Schema was revealed to you by the Bloodcloak placed on your shoulders, calling your soul to an item of great worth. Something beyond our understanding occurred; declare it, lest such Miraculous events be lost to legend alone.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (206-0)
===Judgment 8===
* '''Assembly:''' Varushkan
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' '''Escalation - Penance''' I've examined your Virtue Sigismund. '''Courage''' - Only you stood for Field Marshall but it failed in battle. '''Prosperity''' - Your Anointing. '''Vigilance?''' - With only 6 Auxiliaries & 60 less citizens than expected you accepted no more runners worrying about Druj tricks. '''Ambition''' - Let you to stand before Military Council & Senate owning your mistakes, not excusing or hiding them. '''We build up, not tear down''', so your Penance is as follows; 1) A Pilgrimate of Penance to Dawn, Highguard, League, Marches, Urizen & Varushka and Testimony from each National Assembly. 2) Military Council & Anvil Library get detailed recommendations so others don't repeat your mistakes 3) Sashes to mark those in command 4) Not seeking field command for 2 years 5) A priest by your side in battle & an Ambition Anointing for 3 years to guard your Virtue. '''These are the consequences of your actions, Vigilance not Vengence.'''
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (192-38)

===Judgment 16===
* '''Assembly:''' Wisdom
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' Vindication. By his own admission, Brat Umbral Path is immensely dangerous, and capable of enacting immense harm very quickly and very effectively. I laud this, and acknowledge how it can and ought to strengthen our Empire. I raise it also a warning - that the experts and strategists of this Empire are always best placed to harm it. Brat embodies the point at which the virtue of Ambition meets the realm of Night - driven, cunning, subtle, manipulative, with strong intuition. He is extraordinarily well placed to be the Empire's expert in Night, and convey it to the Empire and the Empire to it. The Wise ought act as the Volhov teaches, and investigate him and that which surrounds him, to witness his triumph, and to disabuse this Empire of notions of threat. I welcome his oath to yearly inquisition, that we might understand him and his realm as it transforms. He will be a virtuous archmage - thus I vindicate him.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (132-0)

==Rewarding==
===Judgment 10===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Father Drakov
* '''Judgement:''' I call for 15 Thrones to be given to Richardo Glostari di Sarvos, Armarious of the Anvil Library. This will be distributed to those who work at the Library in recognition of their work to preserve, expand and promote knowledge & Wisdom. Lets reward & invest in this great Citizen led Anvil staple.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (706-538)

===Judgment 13===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Yvonne von Apulian
* '''Judgement:''' Last summit, Paris of Apulus self-funded and constructed a waystation for foreign pilgrims, extending the reach of the Way. We reward her 15 thrones in recognition of her virtuous labour.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld, full amount (1035-434)

===Judgment 17===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Elagabala
* '''Judgement:''' The Imperial Synod rewards Auntie Armand Mariyavich Remislav 15 thrones to be used as they see fit to reward the immense Courage of the Winter magicians of Varushka they led in destroying the Sumisev Peegel, a regio corrupted by the Cold Sun to emit radiation that could have killed every magician present. The destruction was prepared for alone and funded out of pocket for the protection, betterment, and Prosperity of the souls Volodmartz, who stood endangered by this active threat. Their actions stand as prefect examples of the hallowings of Permion, Inga Tarn, and Isaella's Resolve - to fear not death, and to confront and defeat dangers, for they knew it was the right thing to do.
* '''Outcome:''' Failed (463-558)

===Judgment 20===
* '''Assembly:''' General
* '''Raised By:''' Chantecleer Words
* '''Judgement:''' Claude Deeds discovered that the ghost of Theodric Mooting, the legendary scop of Wintermark, had been trapped at the threshold of Sydanjaa for more than three hundred years, unable to pass through the Labyrinth. Claude led a band to Warriors Gate to free Theodric's soul so he could pass through the Labyrinth. She heard the scop's final tale. Heroes of Wintermark were able to recover his last remains - his drum - and so laid him to rest in Kallavesa. This quest was the result of years of research on Claude's part including careful negotiation with the Winter realm, incurring much personal cost. We reward Claude 10 thrones for her Virtuous deeds: her Wise discoveries, her Loyalty to a legend.
* '''Outcome:''' Upheld (629-514)

Emmanovi: /* The Varushkan Viewpoint */ Competing mandates; enacted not passed

<ic>
"The hole makes a change."

"What?" Jorma stared at his companion like he'd gone snow-blind. "What are you talking about?"

"The hole - it sort of makes a change in a way - from all the ice and the snow and the crevasses. It's like all the danger in this area has all been balled up into one spot and buried in the ground."

Merri Third-Eye had always had something of an odd way of looking at the world. It was one of the reasons Jorma Five Arrows hung round with him. Sometimes it was useful. And... sometimes it was just odd. "Do you think we'll be ordered in there then?" he asked apprehensively.

"Nah - we haven't got the numbers for it. It's close, but we're short-handed. Too many people hunting that Wemba fella. They won't like it, but I reckon it's been for nothing. We'll have to come back and start over I reckon."

"You're wrong there," said Jorma shaking his head. "I saw them dragging that fella south. We're all better off now I reckon. In fact the the further away they take him the safer I feel." He shivered, probably because of the cold. Definitely. Definitely because of the cold.

Merri never missed a thing of course. "Hey - I've got some of that smoked fish from Atalaq. Eat this, it'll warm your bones..."

==Overview==
The heroes of Wintermark and their allies have pressed north, exploring the mysterious and uncharted wilderness of Tsirku. [[Warriors' Gate|Last season]] they made several alarming discoveries, the worst of which was the presence of at least one of Agramant's followers in this frozen land. Long suspected, now confirmed, Wemba the Bloody is loose in Tsirku... but not for long.

However, just as everyone is finding their feet, they discover that these lands hold more surprises than just ''the Howler'' and his followers.

==The North==
* '''The explorers of Tsirku have pressed forwards, but have fallen short of being able to fully explore the new region'''
North of Warriors' Gate lies a region described as "icy, covered in snow, with vicious looking chasms". The eternal storm itself does not extend into this region, but it is one that those walking that way would pass through. Imperial explorers pressed into the unknown, but unfortunately even with the support offered by the [[Construct_Smokehouse_of_Atalaq|Smokehouse of Atalaq]], the worsening weather and all the [[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Scouts|many]], [[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Mystics|many]] problems of exploring Tsirku took their toll. While some headway was made, the explorers have not managed to get a thorough overview of the region.

A first in Imperial history, the region does not appear to have a name as such. Presumably it has a name in the language of the dire penguins and snow hares that call the place home, but it seems that no sapient beings have given the place a name that has stuck. Even use of [[Gralka's Gift to the Lost Seeker]] proves less than helpful, either providing eerie sounds of blowing winds and croaking birds, or simply confirming that someone is in "the wastes of Tsirku north of Warriors' Gate". It seems that even Day magic has its limitations when it comes to a place like this.

There are two significant features here, or at least two that have been found by scouts.

The first is a massive hole, perhaps a mile across. Plates of thick ice extend out around the edges and make exploration particularly dangerous. There is a long drop down into the depths of this hole, and a spider-work of cracks and chasms extends for several miles in all directions around it. The area itself is risky because some of the narrower crevices have been covered over with a thick crust of snow - one that is by no means strong enough to support the weight of a human or orc. Explorers who sleep near the hole report unsettling dreams - a great fire plunging down out of the clear night sky and filling them with terror. This has lead to some speculation that the hole might actually be a crater - one caused by the kind of starfall that struck [[Otkodov#Sküld|Sküld]] in recent years and brought with it a lot of [[ilium]].

The other feature is a stone settlement about a day and a half's hike east of the crater. Settlement is perhaps too strong a word. A squat three-storey hexagonal tower surrounded by a low white granite wall that also contains what seems to be a warehouse and some kind of ox stable. It takes a bit of effort to explore because the heavy doors and shuttered windows are frozen solid. Breaking through, explorers find the place eerily empty of all life, and everything coated with a thin layer of ice that glitters unpleasantly. Investigation quickly leads to the surmise that this is a [[Thule]] outpost - three are images of the five-headed dragon often used in decoration by the orcs of [[Otkodov]]. Unfortunately, the ice covering everything means that its impossible to say exactly how ''old'' this place is. It might have been build a century ago or it might have been finished last month. The question of where the inhabitants have gone is eventually answered and it is not pleasant. One of the big dogs that accompany some of the explorers dig at the snow in the open area before the tower, whining. Clearing the snow, the remains of a score of Otkodov orcs are found buried. [[An Echo of Life Remains]] discovers the name of one of the warlocks - ''Deyadloth of the High Pass''. Some bodies show signs of wolves, other no indication what caused their death. Some of them are fully armoured in leather and fur, others are wearing little more than sleeping clothes. Their discovery leads to a decision to place some markers around the outpost and retreat, and perhaps leave further investigation to specialists who are not worried about how haunted that place might be. It also seems a good idea to avoid any kind of diplomatic incident - or at least to make sure it is someone of the appropriate authority who causes that incident.

Some explorers talk of meeting a figure that a little surreptitious [[insight]] indicates is clearly a [[inhabitants of the realms|creature of the realms]]. It appears as an older orc lady, garbed in thick wool and fur and using skiis to travel. Her face is hidden by a veil formed of knotted leather thongs, each weighted with white bone beads. Her presence is unsettling because she remains at a distance, often atop a snowdrift, and merely observes explorers. Those who hail her receive no response, and anyone approaching soon finds themselves being bogged down in deep drifts of snow, or falling prone thanks to hidden ice, during which she simply disappears again. Comparing tales though it seems that either she has several sisters, or she has made a point of taking a look at most of the explorers in the region. At least one eternal has an interest in this nameless snowscape, but it is too soon to say if they are hostile to those who trespass.
===Names Matter===
* '''The region north of Warriors' Gate has no name as far as Imperials are concerned'''
* '''If the Jotun or Thule have a name for it it has not "stuck"'''
* '''The scops of Wintermark could provide a name to the region and the big hole'''
[[Wintermark_hearth_magic#Names|Names]], as folk never tire of pointing out, are important. In Wintermark, the solemn duty of granting a name to a thing more often than not lies with the [[Wintermark_culture_and_customs#Scops|scops]]. It is risky to name something before you fully understand it, but it can be useful to give something a "use name" so that people know what you are talking about rather than relying on "the snowy region north of Warriors' Gate". During the Autumn Equinox, the [[egregores]] of Wintermark will meet with the scops attending Anvil to discuss the results of the recent exploration. If they wish, the scops can decide on a name for the region itself, and for the large notable feature - the hole, crater, or whatever that gouge-mark in the snow actually is. Alternatively, if they agree that they need more information, they can wait until the place is more thoroughly explored. The egregores will inform the civil service of the scops' decision.

As more of Tsirku is uncovered, the task of naming things that do not have names will fall to the scops. They may choose to consult other explorers, but the final decision (at least for the moment) falls to the namers of Wintermark.

==Winter in Tsirku==
* '''After the Autumn Equinox, Winter will set in ''quickly'' in Tsirku'''
* '''The strength needed to map another region is ''doubled'' until the start of the Spring Equinox 389YE'''
* '''The Imperial Spymaster directs the exploration of Tsirku'''
After the Autumn Equinox, the weather in Tsirku deteriorates dramatically and with incredible speed. While the wastelands are hostile in Summer, it is nothing to [[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Tsirku_is_Barren|how bad they become]] once Winter sets it and the seasons shift here without warning. Blizzards become commonplace, and the temperature drops cold enough to kill anyone unprepared for the cold. Winter is also when the [[Sermersuaq#Major_Features|Northern Lights]] are at their most active, and according to the [[Suaq]] it is a particularly perilous time to be abroad in the wastes.

The strength required to gather any information from Tsirku via the scouting network is ''doubled'' in the period straight after the Autumn Equinox, and remains that way until the start of the Spring Equinox. This will make the challenge of [[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Tsirku_is_Big|mapping the territory]] even more arduous. Either [[opportunity|opportunities]] to deal with the abysmal weather will need to be found, or a major force of military units will need to be applied.

While the explorers have started with the region north of Warriors' Gate, there's no need for them to continue to focus their efforts there. Some progress has been made, and some key features identified, but it will still require the full total of strength to be applied to actually complete the review of the region. That is, to complete exploring any region enough to be able to establish its borders requires the full 5,000 strength (or 10,000 over winter). As such it may be more appealing to move to one of the other two regions that border Warriors' Gate and at least get a rough overview of them... but of course such things take time.

As before, the decision on where to focus exploration after the Autumn Equinox lies with the [[Imperial Spymaster]], although they may receive counsel from the people of Wintermark. At the very least, the Imperial Spymaster should let the Wintermark people know which direction to head in, and the best way to do that would be to address their muster during the Equinox. The Wintermark egregores should be able to arrange such an opportunity for them.

As indicated last season, there are three regions that can be explored in Tsirku.

* The region that has been partially explored is north of Warrior's Gate towards [[Sermersuaq#Sydanjaa|Sydanjaa]]. Finishing the exploration requires the full amount of strength - there is no benefit for having performed a partial exploration.
* Westward, toward [[Tromsa]], lies a region that preliminary exploration identifies as "''barren, windswept, with wide and unsettling skies''". It's likely that Lake Nutjuitoq extends into this area, and there may be a connection to the [[Sea of Snow]] given that there must be ''some'' way for the great sea beasts to reach the [[Sermersuaq#The_Grave_of_the_Giants|Grave of the Giants]]. The ''hylje'' have [[Beneath_a_moonless_sky#As_Semersuaq_strode|offered aid]] in exploring this region, should Wintermark wish to avail themselves of it.
* Eastward, towards [[Otkodov#Urdur|Urdur]] lies a region described as "''rocky, with scattered trees, that feels ominous''". It's possible that the region actually abuts Urdur and if it does that increases the likelihood of some kind of Thule presence there.

===The Varushkan Viewpoint===
* '''Some Varushkan explorers suggest Winter is the ideal time to focus on treasure, not exploration'''
* '''These two mandates are considered to be competing'''
Winter is a bad time for exploration, but it might still present an opportunity. Some Varushkan explorers argue that rather than worrying about where things are and how things fit together, Winter is the best time to wrap up very warm indeed and go <s>wagon raiding</s> looking for valuable resources. There's one season left to take part in the ''[[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Tsirku_is_Enticing|Adventure in Tsirku]]'' opportunity, so why not make the most of it? They're looking to their National Assembly to back them up.
{{Mandate|mandate=Tsirku is a wasteland full of dangers, but we Varushkans know well that where the danger is greatest the finest treasures can be found. We send (named priest) with 25 does of liao to encourage the explorers of Varushka to make the most of the coming Winter to gather the treasures of Tsirku.|assembly=Varushkan National Assembly}}
If this mandate is enacted, then following the Autumn Equinox any Varushkan military unit will be able to undertake the ''Adventure in Tsirku'' venture, without suffering the 2 rank penalty to their effectiveness. In addition, by focusing on gathering the resources of the wasteland, each such military unit will receive an additional "treasures of the wasteland" (a consumable representing unique resources found in Tsirku, most likely harvested from beasts of Agramant or dangerous locations) on top of the two they would normally get. A military unit that has at least 11 ranks thanks to enchantments or upgrades will also receive an additional ''wonder of the wasteland'', a much rarer consumable. There is, as so often with these things, a drawback. If the mandate is enacted every Varushkan military unit that takes the expedition will be competing for resources with the explorers of Tsirku; for every one that does so the effective strength contributed to ''explore Tsirku'' will be reduced by 50 points.

Alternatively, the Varushkans may choose to share their good sense with their friends in Wintermark and among the Imperial Orcs. They could pass this alternative mandate.
{{Mandate|mandate=Tsirku is a wasteland full of dangers, but there is enough there for everyone to seize the opportunity and embrace prosperity. We send (named priest) with 75 does of liao to encourage the explorers of the northern nations to make the most of the coming Winter to gather the treasures of Tsirku with the aid of the virtuous.|assembly=Varushkan National Assembly}}
If this mandate is enacted, in addition to the benefits above it will also remove the 2 rank penalty from Wintermark and Imperial Orcs characters undertaking the ''Adventure in Tsirku'' venture after the Autumn Equinox, and any such military unit that has at least 11 ranks will receive an extra ''treasure of the wasteland'' alongside their wonders. The Varushkans will still get the full benefit of the earlier mandate, and everyone taking the Adventure in Tsirku venture will reduce the effectiveness of those exploring the wastes.

These two mandates are [[Mandate#Competing_Mandates|in competition]].

===Tsirku is Enticing===
* '''For at least a year following the Spring Equinox, Wintermark military units can undertake the ''Adventure in Tsirku'' venture'''
* '''The difficulty of adventuring in Tsirku increases dramatically between the end of the Autumn Equinox and the start of the Spring Equinox'''
* '''Dawnish military units can also take this venture, but do so at the same penalty as supporting the scouting network
Scouting Tsirku is an option now that the spy network is established there. Yet the wastes are ''also'' a source of adventure. A heroic trek into Tsirku focused around exploring not the terrain but the hidden nooks where danger lies... that might be something that appeals to the folk of Wintermark as much as any mapping expedition. For a start, it's known that there are terrible creatures in the wastelands. Some are [[Inhabitants of the realms#Guardians|supernatural beasts]] of Blood-on-the-Snow, that range down from the wild places into Sermersuaq. Others are dangerous spirits of the wild places, or creatures adapted to live in the terrible frozen wastes. If the [[Voyage#Hunt_the_Monsters|beasts of the Sea of Snow]] are anything to go by, who knows what treasures might lie in Tsirku for the taking?

After the Spring Equinox, and until the start of the Winter Solstice 388YE, any Wintermark military unit may take the '''Adventure in Tsirku''' [[Military_unit#Questing|questing]] [[venture]]. A standard military unit that undertakes the expedition will receive two "treasures of the wasteland" (consumables representing unique resources found in Tsirku, most likely harvested from beasts of Agramant or dangerous locations) and 36 rings representing valuable or novel things recovered from the wasteland that can be sold to the curious. A military unit that has an effective rank of at least 11 (counting [[enchantment]] and [[military unit#Upgrades|upgrades]]) will also receive a ''wonder of the wasteland'', much rarer consumable. Both treasures and wonders are selected from a random list, and different characters will get different results.

While this expedition to the north is inspired by the Witan, it is impossible to stop the knights of Dawn finding out about it. For some, the idea of pressing into the untracked north and risking an unmarked grave in the belly of a giant bear of ''Rope-chewer'' sounds like an epic way to seek [[glory]]. As such, Dawnish characters can also take part in the '''Adventure in Tsirku''' venture, but unfortunately the hostile environment means they do so with the same three rank penalty to the effective rank of their military unit that impedes their ability to scout.

All military units attempting to adventure in Tsirku between the end of the Autumn Equinox and the start of the Spring Equinox will suffer an additional two rank penalty due to the blizzards and intense cold.

==Wemba the Bloody==
{{SOP|statement=The servants of Agramant gather in Warriors Gate and must be dealt with. We send the Banner-bearer of Atkonaroq with 25 doses of liao to lead heroes and glory-seekers alike to face the dangers of Treachers Dagger and drive them back from whence they came.|when=Summer Solstice 388YE|by=Hildelith Kaukosdottir, Wintermark Assembly|vote=290-0 {{GM}}}}
* '''Imperial forces have captured Wemba the Bloody and are dragging the monster back to Anvil in chains to face justice'''
* '''He is expected to arrive at 21:00 on Friday at the earliest'''
<div {{float}}><box>'''What No Skirmish?'''
<p>Normally we would offer a skirmish to slay Wemba the Bloody, but on this occasion we've taken a different choice. There is no possibility of any kind under which Wemba would agree to come to Anvil - and we wanted to offer the nation a chance to get a look at this villain. We wanted the many, many players who don't play combatants and so rarely get a chance to look in the eyes of Wintermark's enemies to have an opportunity to come face to face with evil.</p>
<p>We realise some players will be disappointed, but we're keen in Empire to have plots play out differently from time to time. Not everything should go the way you expect. There is still one more of Agramant's named creatures running round Tsirku, so those who are looking for a chance to clash swords with the enemy will still get the opportunity in the future!</p></box></div>
Urged on by the Wintermark Assembly, many military units diverted from efforts to explore Tsirku to focus on hunting down and defeating Wemba the Bloody. Signs of his presence are everywhere in the far north, once the scouts pick up the trail they discover abandoned camps littering the region on the other side of the great crater. The bodies of various beasts are scattered on the ground, blood spilled, their flesh half-eaten, dire penguins, bears and rabbits. This is what Wemba the Bloody has been living on? The man who swore to eat nothing but the flesh of his enemies? Surviving on a diet of uncooked rabbit - it would be tragic if it wasn't so pathetic.

The confrontation with this enemy of the Mark is more of the same. It should have been an epic tale, one for the scops to speak of in hushed tones. A brutal fight, the heroism of the Mark against the bloody steel of Agramant's cur. But the Wintermark scouts outnumber Wemba and his followers a hundred to one and more. His terrible followers have been granted inhuman powers by Agramant, their flesh turns aside blows that would stop a bear in its tracks, but somehow they keep going...

...and it makes not the slightest bit of difference.

If this was Dawn, brave knights might have made this glorious, by calling Wemba out, fighting him one-on-one, the glory of Dawnish knighthood against the terror of Agramant's brood. But [[heroism]] has no truck with [[glory]]. Heroism is about achieving what has to be done, not how difficult or dangerous it is. Deliberately making an act more difficult than it need be impresses no-one in Wintermark. More than five thousand elite Wintermark soldiers descend on Wemba's camp where he and his thirty followers are resting and they cut them to bloody ribbons.

None of them ask for quarter, they know this is a fight to the death and it is a fight they cannot win. Utterly outnumbered, utterly outmatched, they are surrounded and slaughtered. Wemba himself is one of the first to fall, but the only one to survive. His body lies on the frozen ground, disembowled by a spear to the belly, bones in both legs shattered, chest pierced in a dozen places, and yet somehow he ''still will not die''.

Not even Agramant's power can save a man from execution, Wemba will die when the time comes. But the party take it as a sign. His weapons are taken, his hands bound, his wounds closed, and then he is dragged in chains back to Sermersuaq, from there to be sent to Anvil. Let the mighty and the powerful interrogate him and learn from him what they can - the heroes of Wintermark have done their part. This monster's story is over.

Well, almost over. Wemba the Bloody will be dragged to the Wintermark camp on Friday evening. There will be a chance for those with Courage to question him and learn what they can. He is not going to tell the Empire ''anything'' about Tsirku - that much is abundantly clear - but those who want to find out what drives a man to swear his soul to Agramant, to consume the flesh of his enemies, can speak with him if they see merit in it. Once the nation is done with him, he can be handed over to the magistrates and receive his very just desserts.

==Silenced Bell==
{{SOP|statement=The Assembly of Vigilance directs the Silent Bell to investiate the location of Wemba the Bloody, Kalina White-Eye, and their followers, last known to be in Sermersuaq. Locate them but do <u>not</u> confront them, that is work for other hands.|by=Brother Geoffrey Orchard, Vigilance Assembly|vote=Upheld 168-0|when=Summer Solstice 388YE|size=small}}
* '''Following the Summer Solstice the remaining Silent Bell members were assigned to seek out Agramant followers in the north'''
* '''They have identified that Kaarina White-Eye is also in Tsirku'''
During the Summer Solstice, '''Brother Geoffrey Orchard''' directed the Silent Bell to Tsirku to investigate the location of [[Anyone_but_you#Wemba_the_Bloody|Wemba the Bloody]], Kalina White-Eye, and their followers. These two servants of [[Agramant]] have been a thorn in the Empire's side since [[Sermersuaq]] was recovered from the [[Jotun]]. Some of the Silent Bell accompanied those scouts and raiders already heading for [[Warriors%27_Gate#Dangers_and_Hunters|Treachers Dagger]]. Others spread out to see if they could track the movements of [[Anyone_but_you#Kaarina_White-Eye|Kaarina White-Eye]], who was believed to have fled west toward the [[Jotun]] border.

The trail is cold, but it does seem that Kaarina used her superior knowledge of the ice fields of the north to strike out of [[Sermersuaq#Suaq Wastes|Suaq Wastes]] and [[Sermersuaq#Suaw Fount|Suaq Fount]] to harry the hated Jotun. She was also evidencing a keen interest in the Grave of the Giants - the bay where the majestic creatures of the Sea of Snow come to die.

About a year ago however, it looks as if she abandoned her camps in the wild places of Wintermark, and followed the same path Wemba the Bloody took into Tsirku. The Silent Bell follows, relying on the assistance of guides experienced in travelling into the unknown. Everything points to Kaarina currently being based in Tsirku, east of Warrior' Gate - although it's not clear if she is in the region ''directly'' east of there. She is clearly continuing her efforts to extract her blood-price from the orcs who slew her Thane.
===Finale===
* '''Every member of the Silent Bell that entered Tsirku has vanished'''
* '''Remaining members within Imperial borders, and those associated with them, have been attacked by servants of the Whisper Gallery'''
Brother Geoffrey Orchard was very clear that the Silent Bell should gather evidence and information and <u>not</u> engage the followers of Agramant. Unfortunately, it turns out that it is not ''Blood on the Snow'' who is their greatest threat. Between the end of Summer and the start of Autumn, every member of the Silent Bell that leaves the Empire for Tsirku... vanishes. There are wild stories - a half-dead Suaq explorer suffering severe frostbite rants about how the three members of the Silent Bell they were escorting were killed by "their own reflections" that dragged them into the smooth wall of glacial ice north of the Grave of the Giants. Other stories talk of empty tents, with clear signs of struggle that nonetheless failed to attract the attention of a single sentry.

At the same time, there is a rash of attacks across the Empire as well. Here, the attackers are more identifiable. Servants of the [[Whisper Gallery]] have targeted members of the assembly of Vigilance associated with the Bell, retired members, and those very few who [[Know_your_enemy#Fear/Dread|survived]] the expedition into [[the Mallum]] to explore the [[malign spiritual presences|malign spiritual presence]] of [[On the nature of fear|fear]]. Fortunately for the majority, there is a dedicated cadre of Imperial captains who maintain a [[Venture#War_of_Whispers|careful watch]] for the malice of these hateful eternals. The majority of the overt attacks are stopped before they start, or interrupted before their target can be slain or kidnapped (for later murder).

The overwhelming evidence is that whatever has happened to the Silent Bell members sent outside of the Empire - and the protection of the [[Conclave]]s [[Alignment#Enmity|enmity]] - have been much less fortunate than the few who remained behind. [[Snap_rope_and_pass_foil#Tsirku_is_Secret|Tsirku is secret]], and it seems the Whisper Gallery want to keep it that way. Or at least, prevent the Silent Bell investigating the place.
<div style="float:right; width: 400px; clear: left;">{{CaptionedImage|file=WhisperGal001.png|align=right|caption=The agents and servants of the Whisper Gallery are usually wily, and subtle. But just occasionally, the mask slips...|width=400}}</div>

===Bell and Bella===
* '''The Whisper Gallery takes responsibility for the attack on the Silent Bell'''
* '''They claim it is in vengeance for the deaths of Bella and Heliodoro'''
While the Vigilance assembly is still reeling from the attacks, and the disappearances of so many Vigilant souls, a package is delivered by a [[Navarr]] messenger to the grave orchard in Pickham, near the famous monastery, where Major Joshua Benson rests. A [[Pruning_shears|site of pilgrimage]] for the last three years, it is not unusual for gifts to be delivered. This gift, however, is not a bequest or an offering of support. It is a quartet of [[the League|League]] masks, covered in bloodstains, and a bloody knife on which the blood is still, unaccountably, still fresh. With it is a gorgeous strip of parchment, decorated with an intricate drawing of dramaturgical masks with all kinds of expressions, and the two words "''FOR BELLA AND HELIODORO''".

===Watch End===
* '''The Silent Bell sodality is no longer able to launch investigations on behalf of the Vigilance assembly'''
The expedition into the Mallum to seek to expand the Empire's understanding of fear cost the Silent Bell a great deal. Many of its bravest, and most committed members paid the ultimate price for the insight they gained there. Important information was discovered, but it [[387YE_Autumn_Equinox_winds_of_fortune#Those_Who_Are_Not_Free|left the Silent Bell weakened and vulnerable]]. It was inevitable that if many more of them were killed then that would have be the end of the sodality.

By rights, the Silent Bell should have been safe enough in Tsirku - this is a dangerous land outside the Empire and filled with enemies, but even so, few expected them to suffer in the way they have. Unfortunately they did not expect to become the victims of a concerted of murder aimed directly at them. In the Empire they would have been safe, protected by the enmity of the conclave and watched over by the Empire's heroes engaged in the War of Whispers. But out here - in the frozen north, beyond the safety of the Conclave's dominion...

The Whisper Gallery saw a chance for revenge for the deaths of it's favourites and seized it. The Empire has taken something from the Gallery that for all it's capering the ''Concilium of the Perjured Throne'' did not want to lose. Now it has struck back, not with play, but in murderous earnest. It is a brutal reminder that for all the Whisper Gallery is baroque and mysterious, it can also be terrible and deadly when given the opportunity.

The disappearances in Tsirku are the final nail in the coffin of the Vigilant sodality that has served the Empire for years. There are survivors of course - the [[Venture#War of Whispers|War of Whispers]] exists for a reason - but there are nowhere near enough of them to launch any kind of in-depth investigation into the threats that beset the Empire. But the sodality will be unable to continue now and cannot be reconstituted at this time. After a year has passed, the Empire might consider appraising the problem, to see if there was a way to bring the sodality back, but otherwise they have become a turned page in the Empire's long and storied history.

===Participation : Silent Bell===
* '''Characters associated with the Silent Bell are free to create stories about their experiences'''
Any character who has roleplaying an association with the Silent Bell is free to create a story about their encounter with agents of the Whisper Gallery. Obviously, no player character has been killed or abducted by the Whisper Gallery, but you may have had a close call. You may have been saved by characters undertaking the War of Whispers, personally fought off an assassin with your friends, or escaped their clutches with cleverness or dumb luck.

If you were in Tsirku this season, then the threat will be have been considerably worse. No mortal agents were used here, rather terrible creatures formed of billowing chromatic smoke that boiled up out of the ice and attacked.

==Would You Like Some Help?==
* '''Agramant offers to help the Empire track down Kaarina White-Eye'''

At the same time that bloody masks and a knife are being delivered to Pickham Monastary, a very different message is being delivered in Tsirku. The raiders returning from Treacher's Dagger have been victorious. Tired and injured, they are keen to get back to the warmth of Sermersuaq and the embrace of Wintermark friends. Just before they cross the border, a creature turns up in the middle of their camp and asks for parley. It's obviously a monster - a human-shaped monster wearing a coat made of tattooed skin, with a mouthful of shark teeth and lambent red eyes that are nothing like those of a draughir. It brings a message, for the ears of the Conclave, from it's master.

It is ''dreadful'' what the eternals of Night have done to the Silent Bell. Cowardly, even. Waiting until they were sent outside the protection of the Conclave and then murdering them all? Rude, to be honest. ''[[Agramant|Giver of Gifts]]'' takes affront at the ''Secret Seekers'' paddling around in ''his'' part of the world and so he offers a boon for the Assembly of Vigilance. He doesn't expect them to take it but the offer is ''genuine'' and ''sincere''. All they need to do is raise a [[statement of principle]] urging the vigilant to keep watch over the Grave of the Giants. If that statement gets a [[greater majority]], then Agramant will instruct his heralds to give Kaarina White-Eye bad advice, luring her into making a trip back to the Grave during the Winter Solstice to gather more... resources. The vigilant will surely spot her, allowing the jolly old [[Sentinel Gate]] to get some Imperial heroes in position to murder her. And, sadly, as she is inside Imperial borders, the ability of her patron to protect her will be limited.

Why is ''Blood-on-the-Snow'' doing this? The herald says that his master wants to test Kaarina, and just how powerful her hate is. Either she'll prevail over the Imperial heroes, or they'll kill her. Either way, Agramant wins. Plus for that matter he has gotten just a little tired of Kaarina's constant banging on about how awful the Jotun are. And if she's foolish enough to fall for bad advice, and weak enough to be killed by so-called Imperial champions? Well, what can be destroyed ''should'' be destroyed.

Civil service

Emmanovi: /* Tribune of the Synod */ Added Eurydice

<quote by="The Imperial Constitution">The Civil Service shall serve The Throne and the people, and be bound in oaths of loyalty to the Empire. They will be civil in their dealings and treat each citizen by their virtues, without prejudice or favour regardless of wealth, nationality or title. They will choose amongst them those who will serve as magistrates, to ensure the law is a friend to no-one but instead the servant and the master of all.</quote>
__TOC__
==Overview==
The Imperial Civil Service was established at the birth of the Empire but the roles and responsibilities were not codified until later, during the reign of [[Imperial_history#.2822_YE_-_34_YE.29_Reign_of_Emperor_Giovanni_the_Peacemaker|Emperor Giovanni]]. Every member of the Service [[Varushka_hearth_magic#Oaths|swears an oath]] to carry out their duties honestly and without favour to any party. As such, they do not vote in any elections, allowing citizens to trust the information and advice they provide is as fair and accurate as possible.

The civil servants who attend Anvil are generally based at the Civil Service Hub, located roughly at the centre of Anvil. However, their work takes them across various parts of Anvil, as is outlined [[Event schedule|here]].

'''All civil servants are NPC only positions. Their role is to enable the game to run effectively - providing dependable sources of information and preventing players from being bogged down in administration or bureaucracy. The roles are intended to be incorruptible, so that players can trust what the information implicitly. Profound Decisions will ''never'' run plot in Empire involving the corruption of magistrates or other civil servants.'''

==Institutional Civil Servants==
These civil servants are responsible for the smooth operation of a specific Imperial Institution. In all cases a single specific title exists, linked to each of the five great houses of the Empire, e.g. the Speaker for the Senate. Though such offices are always referred to in the singular, in practice there are usually multiple civil servants assigned specific to each role.<div style="display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 30%; grid-column-gap: 10px; clear: right;"><div>
===Speaker for the Senate===
The [[Speaker for the Senate]] comprises those civil servants appointed to oversee the business of the [[Senate]]. The Speaker chairs all sessions of the Senate to ensure they are orderly, timely and effective. They are responsible for accepting [[Senate motion|motions]] from [[senator|senators]] and creating the agenda for each [[Senate session|session]], including any [[Senate address|addresses]] that are to be made.

The Speaker is the best in-character point of contact for queries about Senate motions, [[Commission|commissions]], creation of [[New Imperial titles|new Imperial titles]], and advice on how the Senate is run.

The office of Speaker is expected to maintain the following records:

* A list of all motions brought before Senate, the wording, their proposers, and the seconders.
* Whether or not each motion was passed, failed or withdrawn.
* Any disbursement from the Imperial treasury that was approved for the motion.
* A list of all announcements made before Senate.
* The location of suitable pro-formas for Senate [[:File:Senate_Motion_Sheet.pdf|motions]], [[:File:Senate_Address_Sheet.pdf|addresses]] and [[:File:Senate_Announcement_Sheet.pdf|announcements]].

===Tribune of the Synod===
The [[Tribune of the Synod]] comprises those civil servants appointed to oversee the business of the [[Synod]]. The Tribune is responsible for accepting and registering [[Judgement|Judgements]] raised by priests, and recording and announcing the votes of members of the Synod. It is also the Tribune who disburses the [[Liao#True Liao|True Liao]] to the Throne, the winner of the lot in the Public auction, any doses [[Rewarding|awarded]] from the Virtue Fund, and the doses awarded by the Gatekeepers.

As the Synod holds no formal sessions, the Tribune is based solely within the Hub. They are able to answer queries relating to appointment to Synod titles, the raising of and voting for Judgements, as well the opportunities and powers available to the Synod.

The Tribune is expected to maintain the following records:

* The set of all judgements raised by the Synod at the summit.
* Votes made by Synod priests on judgements.
* Appointments by assemblies of the Synod.
* Definitive wordings for any mandates that have been assessed by the Civil Service.
* Rewardings made from the Virtue fund to the priests who raised the corresponding Judgements
* The names of those who are to receive visions of past lives
* The location of a suitable pro-forma for [[:File:Judgement_Sheet.pdf|Synod Judgements]]

===Herald of the Council===
The [[Herald of the Council]] comprises those civil servants appointed to oversee the business of the [[Military Council]]. The Herald chairs all official meetings, the [[Muster]] and all regular [[Council session|sessions]] of the Military Council to ensure they are orderly, timely and effective. They are responsible for creating the agenda for each session, accepting any [[Council address|addresses]] that are to be made.

The Herald is well-placed to answer any queries relating to the operation of the Military Council and how best to bring matters before it. They provide information on the disposition of the Empire's military forces to the Imperial generals at the start of the muster.

The Herald is expected to maintain the following records:

* The disposition and strength of the Empire's armies and fortifications.
* The battle opportunities chosen by the military council
* Which nations are taking the field for each battle.
* The field marshal commanding each battle.
* The orders given by generals to their armies.
* Any pardons issued by the Military Council.
* Any distribution of [[spoils of war]] made by the Military Council.

===Agent of the Bourse===
The [[Agent of the Bourse]] comprises those civil servants appointed to oversee the business of the [[Bourse]]. They organise the [[Tally of the Votes|election of all National Bourse Titles]] recording the votes cast and identifying each winner. They also arrange and oversee the [[Auction of the Seats]] and the auction of a dose of [[Liao#True Liao|True Liao]]. The Agent is responsible for issuing [[Currency#Bourse_Certificates|Bourse certificates]] for [[Weirwood|weirwood]], [[Mithril|mithril]] and [[White granite|white granite]] to new seat holders when they win an auction or election.

The Agent is best placed to answer questions relating to any Bourse titles, either auctioned or elected, as well as questions about the current state of Bourse seats.

The Agent is expected to maintain the following records:

* Appointments by the Auction of Seats including who is appointed and how much was paid.
* Appointments by the Tally of Votes including who is appointed, the total winning votes and the winning margin.
* Values of any small quantities of Bourse resources auctioned at each summit.
* The winning bid for the dose of True Liao auctioned via the Bourse.

===Prefect of the Conclave===
The civil servants who serve the [[Conclave]] oversee its sessions in the Hall of Worlds. They accept Declarations made in advance of each session, create the agenda, and ensure each session is run in a timely, efficient and orderly fashion. They are also responsible for taking the crystal mana required to speak in Conclave, which is then added to the [[Conclave vault|Conclave vaults]] and disbursed to [[Grandmaster|Grandmasters]] of each [[Conclave order|Order]].

The Prefect is available in the Hub in advance of each session to receive Declarations for the Agenda, as well as to answer procedural questions on how things might be brought before Conclave.

The Prefect is expected to maintain the following records:

* Appointments to Imperial titles.
* Addresses made on each day, and who made each one
* Declarations made on each day, who made each one, and whether or not it passed
* The Strengths of each order at each Conclave session
* The contents of each Order's Vault at the beginning and end of the Summit

==Non-Institutional Civil Servants==
A number of key Civil Service roles are not tied to a single official body of state. These positions are responsible for providing advice and service across multiple different houses or directly to individual citizens.<div style="display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 30%; grid-column-gap: 10px;"><div>
===Constitutional Court===
The [[Scrutiny#Constitutional_Court|Constitutional Court]] is a body of civil servants whose job is to ensure that the [[Senate motion|motions]] passed by the [[Senate]] can be implemented in accordance with the Imperial Constitution. The Court provides [[scrutiny]] of every motion after it passes the Imperial Senate, checking that it is in accordance with the Imperial Constitution and that it can be effectively implemented by the Civil Service. It exists to allow Profound Decisions to check that any motion that changes the way Empire plays will not adversely affect the enjoyment of the game in the years to come.

Members of the Court will attempt to provide constitutional advice to any citizen who requests it, to give citizens the best chance of ensuring that any motions presented to the Senate are legitimate. However, advice given by any individual member is not considered binding by the Court, and all Senate motions are subject to further scrutiny once they have been passed on the floor of the Senate.

Some members of the Court have a number of their own responsibilities. The Auditor of the Imperial Treasury is responsible for providing funds disbursed from the Imperial treasury by the Senate and producing the accounts for the [[Master of the Imperial Mint]] each summit. The Imperial Archivist is responsible for historical research and for all Civil Service publications, while the Chief Magistrate is the senior magistrate for the Empire. These Civil Servants sometimes attend sessions of the Senate to provide important further context on the opportunities and powers available to it.

===Secretariat of the Civil Service===
The Secretariat are responsible for the recruitment and appointment of new civil servants, as well as the day-to-day operation of the Service. Citizens who have an issue with the behaviour of a civil servant are best advised to raise the matter with a member of the Secretariat who will try to assist. At Anvil, when not facilitating the needs of the Civil Service as a whole, they usually fill other roles in line with their specialisms.

At present, the two members of the Secretariat are the Secretary General who directly oversees all civil service operations and the Cultural Liaison, who works directly with the egregores of each nation whole to ensure that all Imperial citizens, especially those new to Anvil, have access to the support they need.

===Overseer of Imperial Elections===
The Overseer of [[Imperial elections|Imperial Elections]] is responsible for administering the appointment for all Imperial titles not managed by another office of the Civil Service, and ensuring all elections adhere to the strictures of Imperial Law. This includes, but is not limited to, elections for senators and generals each summit.

The Overseer can be approached with any query regarding elections to the Senate, Military Council or Bourse. Appointments by the Imperial Synod are best directed to the Tribute of the Synod. Appointments by the Conclave are the remit of the Prefect of the Conclave, (Merlot, the current Overseer of Elections is also a Prefect of the Conclave).

The Overseer is expected to keep the following records:

* The list of current Imperial title holders
* The list of titles awaiting election
* All elections ''to'' the Senate or appointments ''by'' the Senate
* Results of appointments ''to'' or ''by'' the Military Council
* All elections and appointments ''to'' the Bourse

===Imperial Magistracy===
Magistrates are responsible for enforcing [[Imperial Law]]. They appoint members of the militia and coordinate their activities, directing them to investigate potential crimes that have been reported. They administer trials, overseeing the proceedings, determining the verdict, and setting the punishment. They oversee executions, as well as the collection and redistribution of fines.

Magistrates can be approached to provide advice on any aspect of Imperial Law, as well as to offer advice on how to bring a [[Civil Claims|civil claim]]. They are currently based at the magistrate's office, near the Hub.

The Chief Magistrates oversee the magistrates and are responsible for appointing and promoting new magistrates. The Constitutional Court always includes the Chief Magistrates and the longest serving magistrate, so the Chief Magistrates can also provide constitutional advice.

The Magistracy, especially the Chief Magistrates, are also responsible for assisting in the creation of [[The Throne#Imperial Favour|Imperial Favours]].

The Magistracy publishes the [[Court Reports|Court Report]] following each summit that details all trials and their outcome.

===Attendants of the Gateway===
These civil servants take instruction from those individuals awarded or in possession of [[Liao#True_Liao|True Liao]]. Where individuals seek to use the True Liao to have [[Past life vision|visions of their past lives]], it is the responsibility of these civil servants to interview them, to explain the process, and then to administer to the ceremony after the True Liao has been suitably prepared.

They aim to make themselves available to all potential visionaries for interviews and discussions at the Hub - both on the Saturday night of each summit as well as at 1:30pm on the Sunday.

These civil servants are also responsible for keeping records of which citizens are due to receive visions of their past lives, which are published in the Hub. The Civil Service does not record the details of previous Visions - the responsibility for this lies with the [[Seer of the Gateway]].

===War Scouts & Prognosticators===
Imperial war scouts provide vital intelligence to the Military Council on the disposition and movement of enemy forces. This information is combined with divinations performed by the Imperial prognosticators to identify conjunctions of the [[Sentinel Gate]]. Each summit, the department produces a set of briefings for the Council, detailing all major conjunctions that have been identified, along with objectives and potential outcomes.

The prognosticators and war scouts also work together to produce briefings for the smaller military conjunctions that are published before each summit. In consultation with the Constitutional Court, they decide which Imperial title should be given dominion over the conjunction. The war scouts are the best people to talk to if you have any questions about a military conjunction. At Anvil, the war scouts maintain a post near the [[Sentinel Gate]] in order to advise on known [[conjunctions]].

The Imperial Archives also employ numerous prognosticators to help create the Winds of Fortune, the accurate forecasts and reports which are published before each summit.

Tally of the Votes

2026-09-07T19:59:26Z

<quote by="Giovanni, The Throne">I prefer coins to people. Coins only have two faces.</quote>
==Overview==
At each summit the Bourse selects citizens to fill most national positions through the Tally of the Votes. The Tally applies to the majority of Bourse titles that are national positions; the Imperial seats and two League national positions are elected by [[Auction of the Seats]].

Participation in the Tally of the Votes is open to all Imperial citizens who have an eligible resource. To support the process, the civil service providing a voting bond to each eligible citizen, with their name, how many votes they hold, the titles they can support and the times of the election.

==Voting==
* '''The civil service distribute voting bonds to all eligible citizens'''
* '''Your bond has the date of issue, your name, how many votes you have and what titles you can vote for printed on it'''
* '''Voting Bonds are only valid are the summit where they are issued'''
* '''If you have a bond then you can use it to vote in the elections or give it to anyone for them to use'''

If a nation has one or more Imperial titles to elect through the Bourse then the Civil Service provide each eligible citizen of that nation who is attending Anvil that summit with a bond, a printed document that certifies the number of votes held by that citizen. To be eligible, a citizen must [[#Votes|possess an appropriate personal resource]]. If you are issued with a bond it will have your name on it as well as how many votes you have and what titles they can be used to support. It will also have the date of the summit it was issued at - bonds are only valid at the summit where they are issued.

All tally of the votes elections are held on the Saturday afternoon of each summit. The Imperial civil servants will visit each nation in turn to conduct the elections. If you have a bond you can either attend the election in person to cast your votes or pass the bond to another party to use. A bond is considered to be your legal property - it is legal for a citizen to sell or transfer your bond to any other citizen or foreigner, although only a citizen of the appropriate nation can hold a title.

The civil service will visit each nation in turn at times [[Event schedule|published in advance of each summit]] to conduct the elections. Titles are elected in published order, with the [[Agent of the Bourse]] inviting eligible candidates to present themselves. At the start of the election for each title, all candidates must complete a slip provided by the Agent, stating their name, and how many votes they have gathered. These sealed bids are submitted to the Agent who will then invite the candidate with the strongest claim - the highest total number of votes on their bonds - to step forward and present their voting bonds. The Agent will take all their bonds, count up the votes, and provided they have sufficient legal votes in excess of any other claim, they will be declared the winner.

All the votes of the winner will be destroyed, anyone who has not won the election is entitled to keep their votes. Voting will then proceed to remaining titles. This means that if more than one title is being elected, then any citizen who is unsuccessful can use the votes they hold for a subsequent election, if they wish to do so.

It is possible for a representative to present the voting bonds of behalf of a candidate who is not present, but it is important to note that a proxy cannot collect any [[#Production|production]]. Any resources that the winner is eligible to collect will be added to their inventory if they are not physically present to collect them.

==Schedule==
The major Bourse seats operate to a schedule dictated by the materials produced. For example, all titles focussed on the production of white granite are elected at the Summer Solstice each year

* [[Weirwood]] seats are re-elected at the Winter Solstice.
* [[Ilium]] seats and the [[Master of the Imperial Mint]] are re-elected at the Spring Equinox.
* [[White granite]] seats are re-elected at the Summer Solstice.
* [[Mithril]] seats are re-elected at the Autumn Equinox.

The elections for other titles are spread across the year by the Civil Service to ensure a smooth process. A list of seats to be appointed at the upcoming event can be found on the [[Recent history|recent history]] page and on notices in the Hub. Once appointed, the new seat holders are announced via the Bourse noticeboard in the Hub.

Where multiple national titles are being elected at the same events, the elections are conducted in the order published below based on the civil service assessment of their prominence. Occasionally, the election date for a title will need to be moved to smooth administration and keep elections competitive. Where this happens, an election with a short term of office will be carried out the next time the title is elected, so that the re-election falls at the correct summit in future.

==Selection==
An Imperial citizen must be a member of the appropriate nation to hold a national Bourse seat and it must be the only Imperial title they control.

All national titles elected through the bourse are re-elected annually. If the title is elected at the normal summit each year then the chosen citizen serves for one year until the start of the equivalent summit one year later.

If a national Bourse seat becomes vacant outside the normal election cycle (due to death, resignation, or excommunication of the title holder) then the seat is elected at the following summit. In this case, the winning citizen will only serve for the remaining term. The title becomes vacant again at the normal point in the election cycle.

==Votes==
<div style="float:right; width: 500px;"><box>'''Determining the votes'''<br>
Voting for a national bourse position depends on ownership of a specific [[Resource#Personal_Resource|personal resource]]. A personal resource provides 10 votes, plus an extra 2 votes for each time it has been upgraded. You receive the average of these votes for ''each season'' during the previous year that the resource was active. Only the actual rank of the resource counts in this calculation. [[Enchantment|Enchantments]], [[curse|curses]], penalties or bonuses for downtime effects and so on have no effect.

Brand new characters who have the appropriate personal resource are assumed to have had that resource for the previous year (and taken the appropriate action in the case of the Imperial Orcs). Likewise, players with the resource who have missed an event similarly receive votes for events they did not attend. We've made this rule for game balance reasons - so that new characters and players unable to attend every event are not unfairly penalised.</box></div>

The Bourse appoints national positions by vote of members of that nation who hold the resources traditional for that nation. For example, a League position in the Bourse is usually elected by vote of League business owners. Each citizen who owned the right resource receives a number of votes proportional to the size of their resource (even if they have changed their resource since then) which they can cast for a single candidate of their choice whenever the position is elected. To be eligible to vote the required resources are:

* [[The Brass Coast]] - [[Fleet|fleets]]<sup>(1)</sup>
* [[Dawn]] - [[Military unit]]
* [[Highguard]] - [[Congregation]]
* [[Imperial Orcs]] - [[Military unit]] [[Military_unit#Supporting_an_Army|supporting]] an [[army]] during the previous year.
* [[Navarr]] - [[Herb garden]]
* [[The League]] - [[Business]]
* [[The Marches]] - [[Farm]]
* [[Urizen]] - [[Mana site]]
* [[Varushka]] - [[Mine]] and [[Forest]] owners
* [[Wintermark]] - [[Military unit]]

<sup>(1)</sup> Prior to the Spring Equinox 384YE, votes in the Brass Coast were restricted to fleets engaging in [[Fleet#Privateering|privateering]] during the previous year. This [[384YE_Spring_Equinox_winds_of_fortune#Sails_of_Fire|was changed]] following a statement of principle by the Brass Coast National Assembly that gained widespread support in the nation.

==Production==
For national Bourse seats that produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the most recent season's production can be immediately claimed from the Agent of the Bourse by the winning candidate, if they are present. Any production that is not claimed is added to their inventory. Subsequent production in later seasons is added to the title holder's inventory before each summit until the last one. The title holder does not receive any production on the run-up to the summit where the title is due to be re-elected - that is reserved for whoever wins the auction for the title at the summit.

For other titles that do not produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the winning candidate receives whatever production or access to a ministry the title provides in the following downtime, until the title is elected again.

==Removal==
The Bourse is explicitly protected from interference from the [[Synod]] in the [[Imperial Constitution]]. Because of this, it is not possible to revoke a Bourse seat holder to remove them from their position. They serve until the title is reelected or until they die or step down.

===Moral injury===
The crime of moral injury is defined as: ''An act via physical, spiritual, or magical that directly harms, corrupts or defiles the soul of an Imperial citizen.''

Moral injury was [[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Senate_sessions#Create_Crime_of_Moral_Injury|created]] as a religious crime by the Senate at the Summer Solstice 388YE. The Constitutional Court has [[A_little_at_a_time#Moral_Injury|published guidance]] as to what could be validly proscribed under this law.

The Synod has not yet proscribed any acts as moral injury.

<ic>Anger radiated from Garath, filling the tent in which he was sat. The Sentinel by the doorway tensed in response. Conversely, Casia, her black-eyes unblinking, appeared entirely unperturbed and gently stroked her barbels as she considered the broker.

“This is a travesty, and a waste of time,” spat Garath, “Do you really have nothing better to do with your time, fendweller?”

Casia merely considered him in silence.

“You had no right to haul me in like some criminal!” Gareth railed, “I was in the middle of an important trade deal. You’ve cost me a lot of money and I’ll have every ring of it out of your sodden hide.”

The merrow Illuminate simply lifted her cup and drank from it. Taking her time to finish it if full, she turned again to Garath. Rising from her seat she circled his seat before she finally spoke.

“I’m curious,” she said, without irony, “I have spoken at length to some of your business partners. You are a successful trader, there is no doubt. Yet the part that I do not understand is what you do with the liao you purchase from the Bloodhammer legion. No one I have spoken to reports you ever selling any of it.”

Garath snarled, “Is that it? My cousin Gwyn is a Guide. I provide it to him as part of the work of the Faith. Go and ask him.”

Casia nodded, and paused to produce a notebook in which the name was carefully inscribed. As she was putting her pen away, the tent flapped jostled and another Sentinel entered carrying a bag.

Garath blanched, “That’s mine! You’ve no right…”

“I think you will find that priests of the Synod have the right to go a great many places,” Casia interrupted calmly, as she took the bag from the armed man. Reaching in she produced a handful of small documents.

“Oh my,” she said, her tone unchanged despite the expression of surprise, “I do believe I have seen some of these in the tavern. Leaflets extolling the glory of Elora, Goddess of Hope.”

The black eyes fixed themselves on Garath again, “I do believe that’s heresy, blasphemy and idolatry in one single stroke. Thank you for your time Broker Garath, your inquisition is concluded. I would suggest you do not make any plans to leave Anvil as I am quite sure the magistrates will be wanting a word.”

As Garath rose, Casia gestured and the two Sentinels moved to either side of him. Garath glared at his shadows, but said nothing as he left the tent with the two following him.</ic>

“You had no right to haul me in like some criminal!” Gareth railed, “I was in the middle of an important trade deal. You’ve cost me a lot of money and I’ll have every ring of it out of your sodden hide.”

The merrow Illuminate simply lifted her cup and drank from it. Taking her time to finish it if full, she turned again to Garath. Rising from her seat she circled his seat before she finally spoke.

“I’m curious,” she said, without irony, “I have spoken at length to some of your business partners. You are a successful trader, there is no doubt. Yet the part that I do not understand is what you do with the liao you purchase from the Bloodhammer legion. No one I have spoken to reports you ever selling any of it.”

Garath snarled, “Is that it? My cousin Gwyn is a Guide. I provide it to him as part of the work of the Faith. Go and ask him.”

Casia nodded, and paused to produce a notebook in which the name was carefully inscribed. As she was putting her pen away, the tent flapped jostled and another Sentinel entered carrying a bag.

Garath blanched, “That’s mine! You’ve no right…”

“I think you will find that priests of the Synod have the right to go a great many places,” Casia interrupted calmly, as she took the bag from the armed man. Reaching in she produced a handful of small documents.

“Oh my,” she said, her tone unchanged despite the expression of surprise, “I do believe I have seen some of these in the tavern. Leaflets extolling the glory of Elora, Goddess of Hope.”

The black eyes fixed themselves on Garath again, “I do believe that’s heresy, blasphemy and idolatry in one single stroke. Thank you for your time Broker Garath, your inquisition is concluded. I would suggest you do not make any plans to leave Anvil as I am quite sure the magistrates will be wanting a word.”

As Garath rose, Casia gestured and the two Sentinels moved to either side of him. Garath glared at his shadows, but said nothing as he left the tent with the two following him.</ic>

Religious crime

2026-09-04T19:56:45Z

Emmanovi: Updated following E3 2026

===Abuse of Powers===
The crime of abuse of powers is defined as: ''The misuse, or abuse, of the powers of a priest. This includes the powers of the Synod, as well as liao ceremonies.''

The Synod has proscribed the following as abuse of powers:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Performing the ceremony of [[excommunication]] without a [[writ of Excommunication|writ]], where the subject does not consent<sup>[[#1|(1)]]</sup></td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_4|387YE Winter]], amended [[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_80|388YE Spring]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Abuse_of_Powers|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

<small>
#{{anchor|1}} This does not include using the ceremony to ''remove'' an existing excommunication.
</small>

===Blasphemy===
The crime of blasphemy is defined as: ''The denigration of the paragons and the paths of virtue. This includes promoting false virtues and the teachings of false exemplars or false paragons.''

The false virtues are understood to be Anarchy (also known as Freedom), Peace (also known as Understanding), Hatred (also known as Purity) and Vengeance (also known as Justice).

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of blasphemy:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Dedicating someone to a false virtue, or creating an aura of a false virtue</td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_5|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Preaching or promoting of the false virtue of Vengeance</td><td>Alessi of the Basilisks of the Labyrinth</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_152|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Preaching or promoting of the false virtue of Understanding</td><td>Olyvar of Esther's Sanctum</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_153|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>

</table>

<table class='wikitable mw-collapsed mw-collapsible sortable'>
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Raising judgement</th><th>Rescinded by</th><th>Date</th></tr>
<tr><td>Bearing a dedication or anointing of a false virtue</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_97|Judgement 97 Winter 387YE]]</td><td>Edward Greyfriar</td><td>[[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_154|388YE Summer]]</td></tr>
</table>

===Desecration===
The crime of desecration is defined as: ''The removal of spontaneously created virtuous auras such as legacies of ascendance to paragonhood. This includes such auras arising on areas and objects, and those people who do not wished them removed.''

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of desecration:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Desecration or destruction of any relics or memorials associated with a paragon or exemplar<sup>[[#1|(1)]]</sup></td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_6|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Desecration|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

<small>
#{{anchor|2}} This only applies where the relic or memorial bears a spontaneous aura.
</small>
===Heresy===
The crime of heresy is defined as: ''The wilful rejection, or perversion of, the orthodox [[The Doctrines of the Faith|Doctrines of the Faith]] as laid down by the Imperial Synod, or actively teaching and promoting false doctrines.''

The Synod does permit the discussion, and debate, of the doctrines, and potential variations thereof, as part of theological investigation and learning. The criminal act is the teaching of “truth” that has not been recognized as such by the Synod. Virtuous priests are admonished to seek to change doctrine in the Synod, rather than undermine it.

The Synod has proscribed the following as heresy:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>[[Schisms_and_Heresies#The_Excessionist_Heresy|Excessionism]], the belief that too much of a virtue can be as bad as too little</td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_7|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Heresy|link]]</td></tr>

<tr><td>Theism, the belief that there are gods that seek dominance of, control over or communion with sapient spirits</td><td>Frater Pontius of Adoniram’s Testament</td><td>[[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_114|388YE Spring]]</td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td>Realmism, the belief that the Labyrinth of Ages is a realm of magic, and that Paragons become Eternals</td><td>Merlof Von Temeschwar</td><td>[[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_115|388YE Spring]]</td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td>Heresy of the Spawn, the idea that the [[vallorn]] has any significant capacity to influence or prevent the passage of the spirit or soul after death</td><td>Nathair Autumngale</td><td>[[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_47|388YE Summer]]</td><td>[[A_little_at_a_time#Heresy_of_the_Spawn|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

===Idolatry===
The crime of idolatry is defined as: ''Submitting mortal will to any force or sapient being not otherwise defined as a person in law. This includes worship, exaltation, or devotion towards any such being or force.''

The definition of idolatry was [[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Senate_sessions#Redefine_Crime_of_Idolatry|changed]] at the Summer Solstice 388YE, following [[Stones_in_the_wellspring#A_change_in_perspective|calls]] by the Prosperity Assembly to amend it to include orcs.

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of idolatry:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Entering into the service of an eternal or tulpa, where the service subsumes the individual's free will<sup>[[#2|(2)]]</sup></td><td>Eevi of the Gadrai</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_145|387YE Winter]], amended [[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_160|388YE Summer]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Idolatry|Initial proscription]]<br>[[A_little_at_a_time#Idolatry|subsequent amendment]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Venerating an icon of an eternal</td><td>Felix Saltspire</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_128|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Idolatry|link]]</td></tr>

<tr><td>Venerating or entering the service of an inhuman entity of the labyrinth</td><td>Lepidina</td><td>[[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_149|388YE Spring]]</td><td></td></tr>
</table>

<small>
#{{anchor|2}} This does not include serving an eternal as their representative to the Empire, so long as this is public knowledge.
</small>
===Moral injury===
The crime of moral injury is defined as: ''An act via physical, spiritual, or magical that directly harms, corrupts or defiles the soul of an Imperial citizen.''

Moral injury was [[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Senate_sessions#Create_Crime_of_Moral_Injury|created]] as a religious crime by the Senate at the Summer Solstice 388YE. The Constitutional Court have [[A_little_at_a_time#Moral_Injury|published guidance]] as to what could be validly proscribed under this law.

The Synod has not yet proscribed any acts as moral injury.

<ic>Anger radiated from Garath, filling the tent in which he was sat. The Sentinel by the doorway tensed in response. Conversely, Casia, her black-eyes unblinking, appeared entirely unperturbed and gently stroked her barbels as she considered the broker.

“This is a travesty, and a waste of time,” spat Garath, “Do you really have nothing better to do with your time, fendweller?”

Casia merely considered him in silence.

“You had no right to haul me in like some criminal!” Gareth railed, “I was in the middle of an important trade deal. You’ve cost me a lot of money and I’ll have every ring of it out of your sodden hide.”

The merrow Illuminate simply lifted her cup and drank from it. Taking her time to finish it if full, she turned again to Garath. Rising from her seat she circled his seat before she finally spoke.

“I’m curious,” she said, without irony, “I have spoken at length to some of your business partners. You are a successful trader, there is no doubt. Yet the part that I do not understand is what you do with the liao you purchase from the Bloodhammer legion. No one I have spoken to reports you ever selling any of it.”

Garath snarled, “Is that it? My cousin Gwyn is a Guide. I provide it to him as part of the work of the Faith. Go and ask him.”

Casia nodded, and paused to produce a notebook in which the name was carefully inscribed. As she was putting her pen away, the tent flapped jostled and another Sentinel entered carrying a bag.

Garath blanched, “That’s mine! You’ve no right…”

“I think you will find that priests of the Synod have the right to go a great many places,” Casia interrupted calmly, as she took the bag from the armed man. Reaching in she produced a handful of small documents.

“Oh my,” she said, her tone unchanged despite the expression of surprise, “I do believe I have seen some of these in the tavern. Leaflets extolling the glory of Elora, Goddess of Hope.”

The black eyes fixed themselves on Garath again, “I do believe that’s heresy, blasphemy and idolatry in one single stroke. Thank you for your time Broker Garath, your inquisition is concluded. I would suggest you do not make any plans to leave Anvil as I am quite sure the magistrates will be wanting a word.”

As Garath rose, Casia gestured and the two Sentinels moved to either side of him. Garath glared at his shadows, but said nothing as he left the tent with the two following him.</ic>

Emmanovi: /* Idolatry */ Updated wording

===Abuse of Powers===
The crime of abuse of powers is defined as: ''The misuse, or abuse, of the powers of a priest. This includes the powers of the Synod, as well as liao ceremonies.''

The Synod has proscribed the following as abuse of powers:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Performing the ceremony of [[excommunication]] without a [[writ of Excommunication|writ]], where the subject does not consent<sup>[[#1|(1)]]</sup></td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_4|387YE Winter]], amended [[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_80|388YE Spring]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Abuse_of_Powers|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

<small>
#{{anchor|1}} This does not include using the ceremony to ''remove'' an existing excommunication.
</small>

===Blasphemy===
The crime of blasphemy is defined as: ''The denigration of the paragons and the paths of virtue. This includes promoting false virtues and the teachings of false exemplars or false paragons.''

The false virtues are understood to be Anarchy (also known as Freedom), Peace (also known as Understanding), Hatred (also known as Purity) and Vengeance (also known as Justice).

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of blasphemy:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Dedicating someone to a false virtue, or creating an aura of a false virtue</td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_5|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Bearing a dedication or anointing of a false virtue</td><td>Geoffrey Orchard</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_97|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Preaching or promoting of the false virtue of Vengeance</td><td>Alessi of the Basilisks of the Labyrinth</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_152|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>

<tr><td>Preaching or promoting of the false virtue of Hatred</td><td>Silas of the Cenotaph</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_154|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Preaching or promoting of the false virtue of Freedom</td><td>Theodora</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_155|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Blasphemy|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

===Desecration===
The crime of desecration is defined as: ''The removal of spontaneously created virtuous auras such as legacies of ascendance to paragonhood. This includes such auras arising on areas and objects, and those people who do not wished them removed.''

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of desecration:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Desecration or destruction of any relics or memorials associated with a paragon or exemplar<sup>[[#1|(1)]]</sup></td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_6|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Desecration|link]]</td></tr>
</table>

<small>
#{{anchor|2}} This only applies where the relic or memorial bears a spontaneous aura.
</small>
===Heresy===
The crime of heresy is defined as: ''The wilful rejection, or perversion of, the orthodox [[The Doctrines of the Faith|Doctrines of the Faith]] as laid down by the Imperial Synod, or actively teaching and promoting false doctrines.''

The Synod does permit the discussion, and debate, of the doctrines, and potential variations thereof, as part of theological investigation and learning. The criminal act is the teaching of “truth” that has not been recognized as such by the Synod. Virtuous priests are admonished to seek to change doctrine in the Synod, rather than undermine it.

The Synod has proscribed the following as heresy:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>[[Schisms_and_Heresies#The_Excessionist_Heresy|Excessionism]], the belief that too much of a virtue can be as bad as too little</td><td>[[Tribune of the Synod]]</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_7|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Heresy|link]]</td></tr>

<tr><td>Theism, the belief that there are gods that seek dominance of, control over or communion with sapient spirits</td><td>Frater Pontius of Adoniram’s Testament</td><td>[[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_114|388YE Spring]]</td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td>Realmism, the belief that the Labyrinth of Ages is a realm of magic, and that Paragons become Eternals</td><td>Merlof Von Temeschwar</td><td>[[388YE_Spring_Equinox_Synod_judgements#Judgement_115|388YE Spring]]</td><td></td></tr>
</table>

===Idolatry===
The crime of idolatry is defined as: ''Submitting mortal will to any force or sapient being not otherwise defined as a person in law. This includes worship, exaltation, or devotion towards any such being or force.''

The definition of idolatry was [[388YE_Summer_Solstice_Senate_sessions#Redefine_Crime_of_Idolatry|changed]] at the Summer Solstice 388YE, following [[Stones_in_the_wellspring#A_change_in_perspective|calls]] by the Prosperity Assembly to amend it to include orcs.

The Synod has proscribed the following as acts of idolatry:

<table class="wikitable sortable">
<tr><th>Subject</th><th>Proscription raised by</th><th>Date</th><th>Guidance</th></tr>
<tr><td>Entering into the service of an eternal or tulpa, where the service subsumes the individual's free will</td><td>Eevi of the Gadrai</td><td>[[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Synod_judgements#Judgement_145|387YE Winter]]</td><td>[[Stones_in_the_wellspring#Idolatry|link]]</td></tr>

<ic>Anger radiated from Garath, filling the tent in which he was sat. The Sentinel by the doorway tensed in response. Conversely, Casia, her black-eyes unblinking, appeared entirely unperturbed and gently stroked her barbels as she considered the broker.

“This is a travesty, and a waste of time,” spat Garath, “Do you really have nothing better to do with your time, fendweller?”

Casia merely considered him in silence.

“You had no right to haul me in like some criminal!” Gareth railed, “I was in the middle of an important trade deal. You’ve cost me a lot of money and I’ll have every ring of it out of your sodden hide.”

The merrow Illuminate simply lifted her cup and drank from it. Taking her time to finish it if full, she turned again to Garath. Rising from her seat she circled his seat before she finally spoke.

“I’m curious,” she said, without irony, “I have spoken at length to some of your business partners. You are a successful trader, there is no doubt. Yet the part that I do not understand is what you do with the liao you purchase from the Bloodhammer legion. No one I have spoken to reports you ever selling any of it.”

Garath snarled, “Is that it? My cousin Gwyn is a Guide. I provide it to him as part of the work of the Faith. Go and ask him.”

Casia nodded, and paused to produce a notebook in which the name was carefully inscribed. As she was putting her pen away, the tent flapped jostled and another Sentinel entered carrying a bag.

Garath blanched, “That’s mine! You’ve no right…”

“I think you will find that priests of the Synod have the right to go a great many places,” Casia interrupted calmly, as she took the bag from the armed man. Reaching in she produced a handful of small documents.

“Oh my,” she said, her tone unchanged despite the expression of surprise, “I do believe I have seen some of these in the tavern. Leaflets extolling the glory of Elora, Goddess of Hope.”

The black eyes fixed themselves on Garath again, “I do believe that’s heresy, blasphemy and idolatry in one single stroke. Thank you for your time Broker Garath, your inquisition is concluded. I would suggest you do not make any plans to leave Anvil as I am quite sure the magistrates will be wanting a word.”

As Garath rose, Casia gestured and the two Sentinels moved to either side of him. Garath glared at his shadows, but said nothing as he left the tent with the two following him.</ic>

388YE Summer Solstice Senate sessions

2026-09-02T22:47:30Z

Emmanovi: /* Amend Judgement of Proscription */ added outcome

[[Category:Senate]] [[Category:Senate Sessions]] [[Category:388YE Summer]]
{{stub}}
==Overview==
The [[Senate]] governs the Empire, and its authority extends to all areas of Imperial life not already covered by the other houses of government. Each summit the [[senator|senators]] meet [[Event schedule|several times]] to deliberate and vote on the [[Senate motion|motions]] they have raised.

After the summit, the civil service enacts those motions and ensures a public record of each is made available to the citizens of the Empire. This page lists all the motions raised during the summit, along with the [[Senate announcement|announcements]] made by citizens with [[Imperial title|Imperial titles]]. In each case, the motion and its effects are summarised, including the wording, who proposed and seconded it, whether it passed or not, whether any funds were disbursed to support it, and what the outcome of the motion will be.

Many motions (especially the [[commission|commissions]]) also have a ''Further Details'' section that provides a link to a wiki page dealing specifically with that motion in more detail, any commentary from the [[Scrutiny|Constitutional Court]], progress on commissions, or expanded information about the outcome of the motion.

==Treasury==
* Imperial treasury during this season announced by the civil service at 748 thrones and two crowns
** 28 thrones donated by '''Magdalena Teyhard von Holberg''' after the Summer Solstice 388YE for upkeep of Holberg's Walls
** 8 thrones donated by '''Tristan Ramson von Holberg''' after the Summer Solstice 388YE

Emmanovi: /* Elevation */ Added proscription

<div style="float:left; width: 500px; clear: left;">{{CaptionedImage|file=Tempestuous Priests.jpg|caption=Each of the [[Assembly#The_Virtue_Assemblies|Virtue assemblies]] is represented by a single cardinal, who work together with [[the Throne]] to form the [[Assembly#Assembly_of_the_Nine|Assembly of the Nine]].|align=left|width=500}}</div>
==Overview==
Each of the eight virtue assemblies appoints a cardinal to represent and lead them. They are generally referred to as "''Cardinal of (Virtue)''" or "''Cardinal of The Way''". Together with [[The Throne]], they form the Assembly of Nine, arguably the most important [[assembly]] of the Synod.

==Responsibilities==
A cardinal is assumed to provide leadership to the priests and pilgrims who follow their virtue. They are expected to be well versed in matters of virtue and [[The Way]] so that they can speak with authority on matters of doctrine. Prominent citizens who are guilty of breaking the law but believe their actions were rooted in virtue will often request a cardinal to plead [[clemency]] on their behalf, so a familiarity with the law may prove helpful.

As a member of the Assembly of Nine, a cardinal can wield considerable influence over the politics of the Empire. In particular the Assembly has the power to [[veto]] any constitutional motion passed by the [[Senate]]. This allows the Assembly to uphold their constitutional obligation to "ensure the virtuous behaviour of the Empire".

The cardinal is empowered to appoint their virtue's [[gatekeeper]], an important position that controls the distribution of [[liao#True Liao|true liao]].

<div style="float:right;"><quote by="Marcher Proverb">Having a beard doesn't make you wise.</quote></div>
==Powers==
===Member of the Assembly of Nine===
Each cardinal is a member of the [[Assembly#Assembly_of_the_Nine|Assembly of the Nine]]. As with all priests, they can raise a single judgement each summit with any ''one'' of the assemblies to which they belong. Every member of the Assembly of Nine may cast a single vote on any judgement brought before the Assembly. Unlike the General, virtue, or national assemblies the size of the congregation a Cardinal has does not change their votes in the Assembly of Nine - each Cardinal (and [[The Throne]]) has one vote.
{{CaptionedImage|file=Cardinal Preaching.jpg|caption=Each cardinal is appointed by one of the [[Assembly#The_Virtue_Assemblies|Virtue assemblies]].|align=right|width=250}}

===Elevation===
Any member of the Synod may submit a judgement for a [[statement of principle]] to a national or virtue assembly - but not to the General Assembly. The power of elevation grants a cardinal the ability to make an exception to this rule. Once per summit, a cardinal may elevate a statement of principle for consideration by the General Assembly. They can only employ this power once, only at the point where judgement is submitted to the [[Tribune of the Synod]], and only with the agreement of the priest submitting the judgement.

This power allows the cardinals to collectively control what statements of principle come before the General Assembly - allowing them to work together to hone the Synod's message to the Empire and help make it easier for the Synod to be heard.

Alternatively, a Cardinal may use this power to allow a member of the Synod to submit a judgement of [[proscription]] to the General Assembly. A Cardinal may only elevate one judgement per summit - either a statement of principle or a proscription.

===Further Scrutiny===
A normal judgement requires at least three hours of scrutiny before the voting can be counted. If a cardinal is not satisfied that there is sufficient time for an issue to be considered then they may instruct the civil service to push back the voting deadline for the judgement to allow further scrutiny. Each cardinal may use this power once per summit, but only on a judgement submitted by a member of the Synod. They may not delay a judgement submitted by the [[Tribune of the Synod]].

Judgements submitted by the [[Tribune of the Synod]] may not be extended nor may a judgement be delayed beyond the end of the current summit in which it was submitted. This power must be used before the judgement reaches its deadline - once that deadline is passed it cannot be changed. A judgement may still pass with primacy at any time, regardless of any change of deadline.

The limitation on this legal power is on the title, not the occupant. If a new citizen is elected to the title, they cannot use the ability that summit if it has already been used.

===Appoint the Gatekeeper===
Each of the seven cardinals of virtue are responsible for appointing the [[gatekeeper]] of their assembly. The cardinal is entitled to appoint a new gatekeeper at any summit where they are elected or re-elected. Once chosen, the cardinal has no formal power to influence the gatekeeper who may only be revoked by formal judgement by the appropriate assembly of the Synod.

The gatekeeper is an important position, entrusted with choosing who will receive true liao. It is traditional for the cardinal to appoint a citizen from another nation to be the gatekeeper of their Virtue wherever possible. This practice is considered important to ensure that the gatekeeper is able to act independently of the cardinal. Cardinals who ignore this custom risk censure by the rest of the Synod.

The Cardinal of The Way does not appoint a gatekeeper. Instead, they are responsible for appointing the [[Conscience of the Senate]].

===Virtuous Appointments===
Some cardinals are also responsible for appointing other titles, such as the [[Chaplain Consular]], appointed by the [[Cardinal of the Way]].

==Appointment==
<div {{float}}><box>'''<big>Cardinals and Preaching</big>'''<br>A cardinal must be a member of the assembly they lead. This means that if a cardinal changes assembly (such as by [[Congregation#Downtime_Options|preaching]] in downtime) they immediately forfeit the title. </box></div>
Each cardinal is appointed by the appropriate virtue assembly. Only a member of the virtue assembly can serve as its cardinal. Selection is by a judgement of [[appointment]] raised by the Tribune in the standard manner.

The laws for [[Imperial elections]] state that, if eligibility to vote in an election is restricted in some way, then you cannot vote if you were eligible to vote in an equivalent but different election in the last twelve months. For example, if you were eligible to vote for the Cardinal of Prosperity at the Winter Solstice - and you change faith to be part of the Ambition assembly - you cannot legally vote for the election of the Cardinal of Ambition until twelve months have passed from the date of the first election.

The elections for the cardinals are considered to be legally equivalent positions restricted by virtue. This means that if you change your virtue assembly then you must abstain from voting in an election if it occurs less than four events after the previous election in your previous virtue assembly. If you are in any doubt about your eligibility then you should consult the Tribune, or Merlot the civil service overseer of elections who can advise you.

The judgement to appoint a cardinal will typically close at 18:00 on the Saturday of the summit. These times may differ if an unscheduled appointment is required but there are always at least three hours for nominations and three hours for voting. After that time, the candidate with the most support is declared cardinal.

A cardinal serves until the next election for the title. A cardinal can be [[Revocation|revoked]] by the [[Assembly#General_Assembly|General Assembly]], or by the appropriate [[Assembly#The_Virtue_Assemblies|virtue assembly]].

Urizen leadership

2026-09-02T21:34:56Z

Emmanovi: /* Dicta */ Added Summer 388

{{CaptionedImage|file=Urizen Senator.jpg|caption=The Senators of Urizen are selected for their magical ability<br>and for their cleverness.|align=left|width=300}}
==Overview==
Magic is seen as a mark of a rational and learned mind and more importantly as the most powerful tool that an individual or group can wield. The Urizen maintain that those who best understand the world are the ones best suited to lead it, and they look to their most powerful mages for leadership. Every citizen is encouraged to learn a little magic, whether it is practical spellcasting or superior craftwork, but ritual magic, the mastery of the lore of the [[realms]], is regarded as the highest calling.

Most Urizen [[spires]] appoint an arbiter whose role is to resolve disputes, and represent the spire to others. Traditionally the individual who is deemed to demonstrate the most complete [[Arete]] is asked to take the position. In most spires this will be the wisest and most skilled mage, but a martial spire is more likely to choose a weapon-master than a magician.

Although arbiters are expected to provide leadership, they are usually chosen by, and serve at the pleasure of the members of the spire. In effect they are ''"[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primus_inter_pares first among equals]"'', no more or less powerful than any other member of the spire, but accorded respect owing to the importance of their responsibilities. This same principle is applied to ''anyone'' in a position of authority, especially those with an [[Imperial title]], whether they're Urizeni or not. Politics is a popular topic of discussion and debate among the spires, and few Urizen would balk at the idea of politely asking someone to explain the reasoning behind their decisions whether they are an arbiter, a [[senator]], or [[the Throne]] themselves. Senators in particular, are expected to be answerable to their fellow magicians and they can expect to be challenged on the progress of any public commitments they have made.

There is little history of open military conflict between Urizen spires. Cooperation between neighbours is the norm in Urizen, but disputes between spires whose councils differ on political, social or ideological grounds are commonplace. Even before Urizen joined the Empire, such conflicts were almost always settled through debate, often with the assistance of a judge or mediator from a neutral spire.

Urizen are passionate about politics. Being able to debate competing points of view and achieve consensus is seen as a high art form that raises humans above animals. It also makes civilised people superior to barbarians who practice brute force approaches to leadership. The Imperial Senate is held up as a great triumph of the Empire, although they are often disappointed by the way the other nations choose to exploit the Senate, especially how they pick their Senators.
<div style="float:right; width: 500px; clear: right;"><quote by="Martin Buber"> There are three principles in a person's being and life, the principle of thought, the principle of speech, and the principle of action. The origin of all conflict between me and my fellow-people is that I do not say what I mean and I do not do what I say. </quote> </div>
==Truth==
Urizeni politics prides itself on being based on [[Urizen hearth magic#Truth|truth]]. Not the brazen honesty of [[the Brass Coast]], but the certainty that comes from dealing with past and current events as they are rather than as one might wish them to be. The Urizen expect a high degree of transparency from their political leaders whether they are the [[arbiter]] of a spire, or the [[senator]] of an entire [[territory]].

The [[torchbearer|torchbearers]] are a well-established political movement committed to the idea of truth and accountability. They are dedicated to uncovering the truth about important events - both current and historical - and sharing their findings to as many people as possible. They adhere to a philosophy that suggests the only way to ensure the Empire remains "honest" is to ensure that the citizens are kept informed of what is going on around them, so they can make sensible decisions and appoint virtuous Senators.

==Leading a territory==
Urizen senators are elected as the culmination of the demos, a gathering of Urizeni citizens that takes place at Anvil for the purpose of discussing the challenges facing the nation and debating the best way forward. The structure and format of the demos bears striking similarities to the format of the Imperial Conclave, a reflection of Urizen's role in its creation. It usually begins on the afternoon of the first full day of the summit; the egregore of the nation will announce the opening of the demos and call the citizens to order.

The purpose of the demos is for the assembled citizens to agree on a set of resolutions that they wish to see their senators achieve. To achieve this, any arbiter of a spire in the territory may present the egregore with a single dictum they wish the demos to consider. A dictum should be in writing and given to the egregore no later than an hour before the demos is due to start. The egregore curates an agenda from the list of suggestions they have been given, merging any duplicate ideas. Usually the egregore will serve as the chairperson for the meeting, but occasionally they will delegate to a civil servant or a trusted citizen who has demonstrated the capacity to be fair and unbiased to run the demos.

Each dictum must be in the form of an action or outcome that the new senator is expected to try achieve. Thus a dictum might call on the senator to commission a port in Apulus, or disburse funds from the Imperial treasury to buy mana for Urizeni magicians, but the egregore would discount a dictum calling on Urizen to commit funds to support a new fortification. The egregore will usually invite whoever submitted the dictum to speak first, giving them a chance to make their case. They will then call on other citizens to support or rebut the dictum, but each citizen is permitted no more than a single minute to speak on each dictum, and no citizen can speak more than once on a single dictum. It's expected that each speaker will add something to the debate; citizens who use their minute to simply agree with other speakers are often criticised for wasting time.

Once each debate concludes, the magicians from the territory who are present indicate their support or opposition by raising their hand with the issue decided by majority vote. In the case of a tie, then a dictum is considered to have failed to gain the support of the demos. It is not possible to change the wording of a dictum raised to the demos - the vote is always to either support or reject the dictum as written - another reason that brevity and clarity are considered ideal.

The demos concludes once all the dicta have been voted on. At this point, all candidates for the senatorial position are expected to present themselves. Most Urizeni expect their senator to be a resident of the territory they are standing for, but there is no legal requirement for that to be the case. Only Urizeni magicians from the territory may vote. While the candidates formally announce themselves at the conclusion of the demos it is much more usual for them to do so before it begins - so that they can then use the demos as an opportunity to canvas for undecided voters.

The egregore then goes through the list of dicta that the demos has supported asking the candidates if they will pledge to enact them or not. Candidates are not given any time to debate a dictum at this point, since they have already had an opportunity to explain their stance on any given dictum to the demos. They must either commit to enact the dictum or reject it.

Once it is clear which candidate supports which dicta there a final vote to select the senator. The candidates spread out and every magician from the territory present indicates their support for their preferred candidate, usually by moving to stand behind them if they are physically comfortable doing so. Only magicians who are present at the demos can vote - but it is fine for a magician who needs to remain seated to ask a colleague to register their support for their chosen candidate on their behalf. Only magicians who have not voted in another Urizen senatorial election in the past year may participate in the vote.

The candidate with the most votes is duly elected. The dicta are displayed after the election in the Hub for any citizens to view and when the summit is over a written record is then made of the dicta that the winning candidate committed to. The expectation is that the senator will be able to explain what they are doing to achieve these policies or be able to show that they have advanced them.

The senators for each Imperial territory are re-elected at specific equinox and solstices during the year. The senator for Redoubt is elected at the Summer Solstice, the senator for Morrow is elected at the Autumn Equinox, the senator for Zenith is elected at the Winter Solstice, and the senator for Sarangrave is elected at the Spring Equinox. When Spiral was an Urizen territory, its senator was elected at the Spring Equinox.

===Foci of the Silver Flame===
The Silver Flame of [[Spiral#Cinion|Cinion]] are foreigners who have pledged to provide each of the Urizen senators with a [[:category:foci|foci]] once a year. The foci is received the season after the senator is elected, and can be used to enhance a ritualist's knowledge of a specific realm for the performance of a single ritual each day. The Silver Flame will continue providing these rings for as long as the Silver Flame are recognised as foreigners, and Spiral is not an Urizen territory.

'''OOC Note:''' The newly elected senator should email {{plot}} before downtime closes after the event they are elected, and choose which realm they want the ring to benefit.

==Prominent Spires==
A list of well-known spires who have attended Anvil in recent years can be found [[Urizen groups|here]].
==Dicta==
After the demos, once the dicta are agreed, they are copied down by the [[egregore]] and the Civil Service. Copies of these are posted up in [[Anvil#The Hub|the Hub]] for all to see, and commonly distributed to Urizen citizens who do not attend Anvil but have an interest in their nation's politics. The winning candidate is expected to stand by the commitments enshrined in the dicta, as per the Urizen ideals of [[Urizen hearth magic#Truth|Truth]].

<ic>Anger radiated from Garath, filling the tent in which he was sat. The Sentinel by the doorway tensed in response. Conversely, Casia, her black-eyes unblinking, appeared entirely unperturbed and gently stroked her barbels as she considered the broker.

“This is a travesty, and a waste of time,” spat Garath, “Do you really have nothing better to do with your time, fendweller?”

Casia merely considered him in silence.

“You had no right to haul me in like some criminal!” Gareth railed, “I was in the middle of an important trade deal. You’ve cost me a lot of money and I’ll have every ring of it out of your sodden hide.”

The merrow Illuminate simply lifted her cup and drank from it. Taking her time to finish it if full, she turned again to Garath. Rising from her seat she circled his seat before she finally spoke.

“I’m curious,” she said, without irony, “I have spoken at length to some of your business partners. You are a successful trader, there is no doubt. Yet the part that I do not understand is what you do with the liao you purchase from the Bloodhammer legion. No one I have spoken to reports you ever selling any of it.”

Garath snarled, “Is that it? My cousin Gwyn is a Guide. I provide it to him as part of the work of the Faith. Go and ask him.”

Casia nodded, and paused to produce a notebook in which the name was carefully inscribed. As she was putting her pen away, the tent flapped jostled and another Sentinel entered carrying a bag.

Garath blanched, “That’s mine! You’ve no right…”

“I think you will find that priests of the Synod have the right to go a great many places,” Casia interrupted calmly, as she took the bag from the armed man. Reaching in she produced a handful of small documents.

“Oh my,” she said, her tone unchanged despite the expression of surprise, “I do believe I have seen some of these in the tavern. Leaflets extolling the glory of Elora, Goddess of Hope.”

The black eyes fixed themselves on Garath again, “I do believe that’s heresy, blasphemy and idolatry in one single stroke. Thank you for your time Broker Garath, your inquisition is concluded. I would suggest you do not make any plans to leave Anvil as I am quite sure the magistrates will be wanting a word.”

As Garath rose, Casia gestured and the two Sentinels moved to either side of him. Garath glared at his shadows, but said nothing as he left the tent with the two following him.</ic>

Map to the City Below

2026-08-25T19:21:20Z

Emmanovi: corrected appointment

==Overview==
<div style="float: right; width: 200px;">{{CaptionedImage|file=Assembly League.png|caption=This title is appointed by the League Assembly|width=250px}}</div>
The Map to the City Below is an [[Imperial title]] awarded to a citizen of [[the League]]. The [[Construct Chamber of Euphony|motion]] to construct - and cede to [[Sung]] - the Chamber of Euphony was raised by '''Genoveva Barossa d'Apulian''', as the [[Spiral|Senator for Spiral]], during the Spring Equinox 387YE.

The Map to the City Below has a responsibility to encourage the spread of magic, music, and mystery in [[Spiral#Apulian|Apulian]], and oversees the Chamber of Euphony. The title was created as a result of an opportunity presented in the '''[[The_play_that_came_to_Apulian#Writhing_Tails,_Flashing_Wing|The play that came to Apulian]]''' wind of fortune.

==Responsibilities==
The Map to the City Below is responsible for encouraging the spread of magic, music, and mystery in Apulian. In addition, if the Chamber of Euphony were to come under threat, it would be the responsibility of the Map to the City Below to respond to those threats.

==Powers==
The holder of this Imperial title has two powers that they can employ provided that Sung is not [[Alignment#Enmity|under enmity]].
===Crystal Fire===
<div style="width: 350px; float: right; clear: right; margin-left:10px;">
<table class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"><tr><td colspan="2" style="background-color: LightYellow;">'''Crystal Fire from the City Below'''</td></tr>
<tr><td>171 rings</td><td>4 crystal fire</td></tr>
<tr><td>373 rings</td><td>7 crystal fire</td></tr>
<tr><td>676 rings</td><td>11 crystal fire</td></tr>
<tr><td>878 rings</td><td>13 crystal fire</td></tr>
</table></div>
The Map to the City Below has access to a ministry, which allows the holder to purchase [[crystal fire]] at a set price. The Chamber of Euphony is visited by several heralds of the [[Sung|Spiral Dancer]], and they are willing to sell shards of the dark mineral. The Map to the City Below makes their decision on how much money to spend during downtime from their character page. Money is removed from, and vis is placed into, the character's inventory when the downtime is processed.

===Effigy of the Night Singer ===
The Map to the City Below also receives an [[Clear_Counsel_of_the_Everflowing_River#Preparing_the_Question|ambergelt effigy]] each season that can be used to submit a question to Sung, using the ritual [[Clear Counsel of the Everflowing River]].
{{CaptionedImage|file=Sofonisba Amilcara of the City Below.jpg|caption='''Sofonisba Amilcara of the City Below''', Map to the City Below|align=left|width=275}}

==Favoured by Sung==
The current holder of this title, Sofonisba Amilcara of the City Below, is ''favoured'' by Sung. As a result of this patronage, they enjoy additional powers above and beyond those granted by the Chamber of Euphony. If the League Assembly elected a new Map to the City Below, the eternal would choose who gained and who maintained these powers.

===Bound to the City===
* '''Sofonisba is "bound" to the city'''
* '''This favour ''may'' grant Sofonisba early warning if the city is threatened'''
Sofonisba is now bound to the city and benefits from a unique gift from [[Sung]]. There is some uncertainty as to what being "''bound''" to the city actually means.

The current belief of Apulian magicians is that the Map will usually be the first to know if the city is threatened by an eternal. Or that the Map will know about any threat as soon as Sung does. Or that Sung will know about any threat as soon as the Map does. At least one of those things is definitely true, possibly all of them. Straight answers are rare with some Night eternals, and none more so than the ''Lord of Illusions''.

===A Panoply of Dreams===
* '''Sofonisba is high in the counsels of Sung'''
* '''This favour ''may'' grant Sofonisba additional information each season'''
Sofonisba is favoured by Sung who holds the magician in high esteem. The eternal includes them in her counsels which ''may'' provide them with additional information each season.

There is no magical basis for this favour, so it is not possible for magicians to analyse it. The Rainbow Serpent is open about the fact that they hold counsel with Sofonisba in some manner, but only Sofonisba knows what exactly that means.

==The Chamber of Euphony==
<div style="float:right; width: 400px; clear: right;">{{CaptionedImage|file=Sung001b.JPG |caption=Nothing can be said that can't be sung.|align=right|width=350}}</div>
The Chamber of Euphony is an intimate auditorium that was first proposed by [[A_question_of_loyalty#Spires|Actius of the Deathless Caves]]. It incorporates a stage and seating with strange acoustics that allow for beautiful, evocative performances of music that supporters find transcendent and spellbinding. Sadly not everyone agrees and some music critics have described performances of even the most popular pieces as "weirdly atonal", "disharmonious" and "the musical equivalent of taking too much goosewhisper infusion."

Despite this division, or perhaps because of it, tickets for performances are ''always'' in high demand. On most nights the mortal performers create something that is at least dramatic and impactful - whatever you think of the Chamber, almost nobody is left indifferent by a recital. On rare nights the music is an accompaniment by a dance by the [[The fate of the many|Dancer at the End of Time]], a peculiar herald of Sung who lives in the emotion of the music.

==Appointment==

Tally of the Votes

2026-08-20T20:44:36Z

Emmanovi: /* Schedule */ Added Chief Wrangler

<quote by="Giovanni, The Throne">I prefer coins to people. Coins only have two faces.</quote>
==Overview==
At each summit the Bourse selects citizens to fill most national positions through the Tally of the Votes. The Tally applies to the majority of Bourse titles that are national positions; the Imperial seats and two League national positions are elected by [[Auction of the Seats]].

Participation in the Tally of the Votes is open to all Imperial citizens who have an eligible resource. To support the process, the civil service providing a voting bond to each eligible citizen, with their name, how many votes they hold, the titles they can support and the times of the election.

==Voting==
* '''The civil service distribute voting bonds to all eligible citizens'''
* '''Your bond has the date of issue, your name, how many votes you have and what titles you can vote for printed on it'''
* '''Voting Bonds are only valid are the summit where they are issued'''
* '''If you have a bond then you can use it to vote in the elections or give it to anyone for them to use'''
<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; max-width: 400px; width: 50%;">
<table>
<tr><th>Nation</th><th>Location</th></tr>
<tr><td>Brass Coast</td><td>Waypoint</td></tr>
<tr><td>Dawn</td><td>Glory Square</td></tr>
<tr><td>Highguard</td><td>Chapel</td></tr>
<tr><td>Imperial Orcs</td><td>Fire Pit</td></tr>
<tr><td>League</td><td>The Plaza</td></tr>
<tr><td>Marches</td><td>Community Hall</td></tr>
<tr><td>Navarr</td><td>Standing Circle</td></tr>
<tr><td>Urizen</td><td>Near Net of Heaven</td></tr>
<tr><td>Varushka</td><td>Central Hearth</td></tr>
<tr><td>Wintermark</td><td>Tree of Names</td></tr>
</table></div>
If a nation has one or more Imperial titles to elect through the Bourse then the Civil Service provide each eligible citizen of that nation who is attending Anvil that summit with a bond, a printed document that certifies the number of votes held by that citizen. To be eligible, a citizen must [[#Votes|possess an appropriate personal resource]]. If you are issued with a bond it will have your name on it as well as how many votes you have and what titles they can be used to support. It will also have the date of the summit it was issued at - bonds are only valid at the summit where they are issued.

All tally of the votes elections are held on the Saturday afternoon of each summit. The Imperial civil servants will visit each nation in turn to conduct the elections. If you have a bond you can either attend the election in person to cast your votes or pass the bond to another party to use. A bond is considered to be your legal property - it is legal for a citizen to sell or transfer your bond to any other citizen or foreigner, although only a citizen of the appropriate nation can hold a title.

The civil service will visit each nation in turn at times [[Event schedule|published in advance of each summit]] to conduct the elections. Titles are elected in published order, with the [[Agent of the Bourse]] inviting eligible candidates to present themselves. At the start of the election for each title, all candidates must complete a slip provided by the Agent, stating their name, and how many votes they have gathered. These sealed bids are submitted to the Agent who will then invite the candidate with the strongest claim - the highest total number of votes on their bonds - to step forward and present their voting bonds. The Agent will take all their bonds, count up the votes, and provided they have sufficient legal votes in excess of any other claim, they will be declared the winner.

All the votes of the winner will be destroyed, anyone who has not won the election is entitled to keep their votes. Voting will then proceed to remaining titles. This means that if more than one title is being elected, then any citizen who is unsuccessful can use the votes they hold for a subsequent election, if they wish to do so.

It is possible for a representative to present the voting bonds of behalf of a candidate who is not present, but it is important to note that a proxy cannot collect any [[#Production|production]]. Any resources that the winner is eligible to collect will be added to their inventory if they are not physically present to collect them.

==Schedule==
The major Bourse seats operate to a schedule dictated by the materials produced. For example, all titles focussed on the production of white granite are elected at the Summer Solstice each year

* [[Weirwood]] seats are re-elected at the Winter Solstice.
* [[Ilium]] seats and the [[Master of the Imperial Mint]] are re-elected at the Spring Equinox.
* [[White granite]] seats are re-elected at the Summer Solstice.
* [[Mithril]] seats are re-elected at the Autumn Equinox.

The elections for other titles are spread across the year by the Civil Service to ensure a smooth process. A list of seats to be appointed at the upcoming event can be found on the [[Recent history|recent history]] page and on notices in the Hub. Once appointed, the new seat holders are announced via the Bourse noticeboard in the Hub.

Where multiple national titles are being elected at the same events, the elections are conducted in the order published below based on the civil service assessment of their prominence. Occasionally, the election date for a title will need to be moved to smooth administration and keep elections competitive. Where this happens, an election with a short term of office will be carried out the next time the title is elected, so that the re-election falls at the correct summit in future.

</table>

==Selection==
An Imperial citizen must be a member of the appropriate nation to hold a national Bourse seat and it must be the only Imperial title they control.

All national titles elected through the bourse are re-elected annually. If the title is elected at the normal summit each year then the chosen citizen serves for one year until the start of the equivalent summit one year later.

If a national Bourse seat becomes vacant outside the normal election cycle (due to death, resignation, or excommunication of the title holder) then the seat is elected at the following summit. In this case, the winning citizen will only serve for the remaining term. The title becomes vacant again at the normal point in the election cycle.

==Votes==
<div style="float:right; width: 500px;"><box>'''Determining the votes'''<br>
Voting for a national bourse position depends on ownership of a specific [[Resource#Personal_Resource|personal resource]]. A personal resource provides 10 votes, plus an extra 2 votes for each time it has been upgraded. You receive the average of these votes for ''each season'' during the previous year that the resource was active. Only the actual rank of the resource counts in this calculation. [[Enchantment|Enchantments]], [[curse|curses]], penalties or bonuses for downtime effects and so on have no effect.

Brand new characters who have the appropriate personal resource are assumed to have had that resource for the previous year (and taken the appropriate action in the case of the Imperial Orcs). Likewise, players with the resource who have missed an event similarly receive votes for events they did not attend. We've made this rule for game balance reasons - so that new characters and players unable to attend every event are not unfairly penalised.</box></div>

The Bourse appoints national positions by vote of members of that nation who hold the resources traditional for that nation. For example, a League position in the Bourse is usually elected by vote of League business owners. Each citizen who owned the right resource receives a number of votes proportional to the size of their resource (even if they have changed their resource since then) which they can cast for a single candidate of their choice whenever the position is elected. To be eligible to vote the required resources are:

* [[The Brass Coast]] - [[Fleet|fleets]]<sup>(1)</sup>
* [[Dawn]] - [[Military unit]]
* [[Highguard]] - [[Congregation]]
* [[Imperial Orcs]] - [[Military unit]] [[Military_unit#Supporting_an_Army|supporting]] an [[army]] during the previous year.
* [[Navarr]] - [[Herb garden]]
* [[The League]] - [[Business]]
* [[The Marches]] - [[Farm]]
* [[Urizen]] - [[Mana site]]
* [[Varushka]] - [[Mine]] and [[Forest]] owners
* [[Wintermark]] - [[Military unit]]

<sup>(1)</sup> Prior to the Spring Equinox 384YE, votes in the Brass Coast were restricted to fleets engaging in [[Fleet#Privateering|privateering]] during the previous year. This [[384YE_Spring_Equinox_winds_of_fortune#Sails_of_Fire|was changed]] following a statement of principle by the Brass Coast National Assembly that gained widespread support in the nation.

==Production==
For national Bourse seats that produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the most recent season's production can be immediately claimed from the Agent of the Bourse by the winning candidate, if they are present. Any production that is not claimed is added to their inventory. Subsequent production in later seasons is added to the title holder's inventory before each summit until the last one. The title holder does not receive any production on the run-up to the summit where the title is due to be re-elected - that is reserved for whoever wins the auction for the title at the summit.

For other titles that do not produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the winning candidate receives whatever production or access to a ministry the title provides in the following downtime, until the title is elected again.

==Removal==
The Bourse is explicitly protected from interference from the [[Synod]] in the [[Imperial Constitution]]. Because of this, it is not possible to revoke a Bourse seat holder to remove them from their position. They serve until the title is reelected or until they die or step down.

==Overview==
The Chief Wrangler is an [[Imperial title]] awarded to a citizen of [[the Brass Coast]]. [[Construct_Wrangler%27s_Market|Commissioned]] by the Imperial Senate at the Summer Solstice 388YE, the ''Wrangler's Market'' presents some opportunity to trade cattle to the Suranni - but secretly also acts as a front to enable spying on the territory of Arbonne.
__NOTOC__
===Responsibilities===
The Chief Wrangler is responsible for ensuring that sufficient cattle is traded to the Suranni to allow Unshackled scouts to spy on the territory. If the market were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Wrangler to deal with those threats.
==Powers==
===Cattle Trade===
<div {{Float}}>
<table class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"><tr><td colspan="2" style="background-color:LightYellow;">'''Cattle Trade'''</td></tr>
<tr><td>140 Rings</td><td>6 orichalcum and 6 weltsilver</td></tr>
<tr><td>340 Rings</td><td>12 orichalcum and 12 weltsilver</td></tr>
<tr><td>600 Rings</td><td>18 orichalcum and 18 weltsilver</td></tr>
</table>
</div>
As a [[ministry]], the position of Chief Wrangler allows the holder to purchase quantities of orichalcum and weltsilver at a set price. The Dhomiro spends their decision about how much money to spend during downtime from their character page. Money (representing cattle) is removed from, and resources are placed into, the character's inventory when the downtime is processed.

Operating the ministry allows the spy network in the territory to continue undetected. As long as the ministry is operated each season, the Suranni will have no way at all to discover the network. Indeed, it is be in the interests of corrupt officials not to look too closely and even to cover up any evidence of spying that they did discover - because it might disrupt the lucrative trade.
==Appointment==
The Chief Wrangler is appointed during the Autumn Equinox. The Wrangler is appointed by citizens of the Brass Coast who control [[fleet|fleets]]. The voting is handled by the civil servants in the Bourse.

Only a Freeborn character may hold the title. They do not receive a seat on the Bourse. As a title appointed through the Bourse they cannot be [[revocation|revoked]] by the [[Synod]].

Advisor on Orc Affairs

2026-08-20T20:18:45Z

Emmanovi: Added sinecure

{{CaptionedImage|file=AdvisorErgot.jpg|align=left|title=Bloodcrow Ergot, the third orc to hold the title of Advisor on orc affairs.|caption=The Advisor advises on both [[Imperial Orcs|Imperial]] and [[Barbarian#The_Orc_Tribes|barbarian]] [[orc|orcs]]|width=250}}
==Overview==
The Advisor on Orc Affairs is an Imperial title [[Create title of Imperial Orc observer|created]] by the [[Senate]] in Winter 376YE and [[Amend_powers_of_the_Advisor_on_Orc_Affairs|amended]] in the Spring Equinox of 379YE.

The first Imperial orc advisor was appointed at the Autumn Equinox in 377YE. Even before that appointment there was some controversy; when the position was first suggested, the magistrates were concerned that there were extensive constitutional problems with the title. "It is the magistrate's opinion that this motion is unconstitutional as the primary purpose of the senate is to represent the citizens of current imperial territories. The Imperial Orc nation does not currently have any territories. Furthermore it is within the existing powers of the senate to call someone to address the senate with regards to a particular motion." Following a full investigation of the matter by the [[Scrutiny#Constitutional_Court|Constitutional Court]], these concerns were overturned - comparison was made with the [[Bourse|Master of the Imperial Mint]]. As there was no attempt to give the Advisor any ability to vote or raise motions, the constitutional concerns were assuaged.

Prior to the establishment of the orc [[territory]] of [[Skarsind]], the Advisor was appointed by unanimous decision of the Imperial Orc [[general|generals]]; if they were not unanimous, the only alternative was for a vote of appointment by the Imperial Senate. With the assignment of [[Skarsind]], and the nation now having the ability to appoint [[senator|senators]], the appointment mechanism defaults to the standard method of appointing national Senate titles.

At the Summer Solstice 388YE, the Senate [[Construct_Archives_of_the_Advisor|commissioned]] a sinecure, the ''Archives of the Advisor'', in Solvihill, Skarsind. Work was completed just before the Autumn Equinox 388YE.
==Responsibilities==
The Advisor advises the Imperial Senate on matters relating to the [[Orc|orcs]], both [[Imperial Orcs|Imperial]] and [[barbarian|otherwise]]. While they cannot raise or second a motion, nor vote, the Advisor is able and expected to participate fully in the debate that surrounds any Senatorial decision.

==Powers==
===Member of the Senate===
The Advisor on Orc Affairs is a [[Senate session#Member_of_the_Senate|member of the Senate]]. They are entitled to enter the Senate chamber at the start of a [[Senate session]] and participate in the debates. They do not have the power to raise motions or to vote on a motion.

===Right of Address===
The Advisor on Orc Affairs has the right to [[Senate address|make an address]] to the Senate once per summit. This is intended to allow them to present issues or concerns relating to the orcs. To use this power, the Advisor informs the Civil Service that they wish to address the Senate. Their address will be added to the agenda for the next [[Senate session]].
===Gloaming Income===
The Advisor benefits from a [[sinecure]] and receives 12 measures of iridescent gloaming each season.
==Appointment==
The Advisor on orc affairs is appointed during the Spring Equinox each year. The title is selected by unanimous decision of the [[Imperial Orcs|Imperial Orc]] [[senator|senators]]. If a unanimous decision cannot be reached, the title [[Appointments_by_the_Senate#National_Position|may be appointed]] by the [[Senate]] instead.

The title can be held by any Imperial Orc citizen, and they can be [[revocation|revoked]] by the [[Assembly#General_Assembly|General Assembly]], the [[Assembly#The_National_Assemblies|Imperial Orc National Assembly]], and by the [[Assembly#Assembly_of_the_Nine|Assembly of the Nine]].

Tally of the Votes

2026-08-20T20:07:42Z

Emmanovi: /* Schedule */ Added Hakima of the Rippling Marshes

<quote by="Giovanni, The Throne">I prefer coins to people. Coins only have two faces.</quote>
==Overview==
At each summit the Bourse selects citizens to fill most national positions through the Tally of the Votes. The Tally applies to the majority of Bourse titles that are national positions; the Imperial seats and two League national positions are elected by [[Auction of the Seats]].

Participation in the Tally of the Votes is open to all Imperial citizens who have an eligible resource. To support the process, the civil service providing a voting bond to each eligible citizen, with their name, how many votes they hold, the titles they can support and the times of the election.

==Voting==
* '''The civil service distribute voting bonds to all eligible citizens'''
* '''Your bond has the date of issue, your name, how many votes you have and what titles you can vote for printed on it'''
* '''Voting Bonds are only valid are the summit where they are issued'''
* '''If you have a bond then you can use it to vote in the elections or give it to anyone for them to use'''
<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; max-width: 400px; width: 50%;">
<table>
<tr><th>Nation</th><th>Location</th></tr>
<tr><td>Brass Coast</td><td>Waypoint</td></tr>
<tr><td>Dawn</td><td>Glory Square</td></tr>

<tr><td>Navarr</td><td>Standing Circle</td></tr>
<tr><td>Urizen</td><td>Near Net of Heaven</td></tr>

<tr><td>Wintermark</td><td>Tree of Names</td></tr>
</table></div>
If a nation has one or more Imperial titles to elect through the Bourse then the Civil Service provide each eligible citizen of that nation who is attending Anvil that summit with a bond, a printed document that certifies the number of votes held by that citizen. To be eligible, a citizen must [[#Votes|possess an appropriate personal resource]]. If you are issued with a bond it will have your name on it as well as how many votes you have and what titles they can be used to support. It will also have the date of the summit it was issued at - bonds are only valid at the summit where they are issued.

All tally of the votes elections are held on the Saturday afternoon of each summit. The Imperial civil servants will visit each nation in turn to conduct the elections. If you have a bond you can either attend the election in person to cast your votes or pass the bond to another party to use. A bond is considered to be your legal property - it is legal for a citizen to sell or transfer your bond to any other citizen or foreigner, although only a citizen of the appropriate nation can hold a title.

The civil service will visit each nation in turn at times [[Event schedule|published in advance of each summit]] to conduct the elections. Titles are elected in published order, with the [[Agent of the Bourse]] inviting eligible candidates to present themselves. At the start of the election for each title, all candidates must complete a slip provided by the Agent, stating their name, and how many votes they have gathered. These sealed bids are submitted to the Agent who will then invite the candidate with the strongest claim - the highest total number of votes on their bonds - to step forward and present their voting bonds. The Agent will take all their bonds, count up the votes, and provided they have sufficient legal votes in excess of any other claim, they will be declared the winner.

All the votes of the winner will be destroyed, anyone who has not won the election is entitled to keep their votes. Voting will then proceed to remaining titles. This means that if more than one title is being elected, then any citizen who is unsuccessful can use the votes they hold for a subsequent election, if they wish to do so.

It is possible for a representative to present the voting bonds of behalf of a candidate who is not present, but it is important to note that a proxy cannot collect any [[#Production|production]]. Any resources that the winner is eligible to collect will be added to their inventory if they are not physically present to collect them.

==Schedule==
The major Bourse seats operate to a schedule dictated by the materials produced. For example, all titles focussed on the production of white granite are elected at the Summer Solstice each year

* [[Weirwood]] seats are re-elected at the Winter Solstice.
* [[Ilium]] seats and the [[Master of the Imperial Mint]] are re-elected at the Spring Equinox.
* [[White granite]] seats are re-elected at the Summer Solstice.
* [[Mithril]] seats are re-elected at the Autumn Equinox.

The elections for other titles are spread across the year by the Civil Service to ensure a smooth process. A list of seats to be appointed at the upcoming event can be found on the [[Recent history|recent history]] page and on notices in the Hub. Once appointed, the new seat holders are announced via the Bourse noticeboard in the Hub.

Where multiple national titles are being elected at the same events, the elections are conducted in the order published below based on the civil service assessment of their prominence. Occasionally, the election date for a title will need to be moved to smooth administration and keep elections competitive. Where this happens, an election with a short term of office will be carried out the next time the title is elected, so that the re-election falls at the correct summit in future.

</table>

==Selection==
An Imperial citizen must be a member of the appropriate nation to hold a national Bourse seat and it must be the only Imperial title they control.

All national titles elected through the bourse are re-elected annually. If the title is elected at the normal summit each year then the chosen citizen serves for one year until the start of the equivalent summit one year later.

If a national Bourse seat becomes vacant outside the normal election cycle (due to death, resignation, or excommunication of the title holder) then the seat is elected at the following summit. In this case, the winning citizen will only serve for the remaining term. The title becomes vacant again at the normal point in the election cycle.

==Votes==
<div style="float:right; width: 500px;"><box>'''Determining the votes'''<br>
Voting for a national bourse position depends on ownership of a specific [[Resource#Personal_Resource|personal resource]]. A personal resource provides 10 votes, plus an extra 2 votes for each time it has been upgraded. You receive the average of these votes for ''each season'' during the previous year that the resource was active. Only the actual rank of the resource counts in this calculation. [[Enchantment|Enchantments]], [[curse|curses]], penalties or bonuses for downtime effects and so on have no effect.

Brand new characters who have the appropriate personal resource are assumed to have had that resource for the previous year (and taken the appropriate action in the case of the Imperial Orcs). Likewise, players with the resource who have missed an event similarly receive votes for events they did not attend. We've made this rule for game balance reasons - so that new characters and players unable to attend every event are not unfairly penalised.</box></div>

The Bourse appoints national positions by vote of members of that nation who hold the resources traditional for that nation. For example, a League position in the Bourse is usually elected by vote of League business owners. Each citizen who owned the right resource receives a number of votes proportional to the size of their resource (even if they have changed their resource since then) which they can cast for a single candidate of their choice whenever the position is elected. To be eligible to vote the required resources are:

* [[The Brass Coast]] - [[Fleet|fleets]]<sup>(1)</sup>
* [[Dawn]] - [[Military unit]]
* [[Highguard]] - [[Congregation]]
* [[Imperial Orcs]] - [[Military unit]] [[Military_unit#Supporting_an_Army|supporting]] an [[army]] during the previous year.
* [[Navarr]] - [[Herb garden]]
* [[The League]] - [[Business]]
* [[The Marches]] - [[Farm]]
* [[Urizen]] - [[Mana site]]
* [[Varushka]] - [[Mine]] and [[Forest]] owners
* [[Wintermark]] - [[Military unit]]

<sup>(1)</sup> Prior to the Spring Equinox 384YE, votes in the Brass Coast were restricted to fleets engaging in [[Fleet#Privateering|privateering]] during the previous year. This [[384YE_Spring_Equinox_winds_of_fortune#Sails_of_Fire|was changed]] following a statement of principle by the Brass Coast National Assembly that gained widespread support in the nation.

==Production==
For national Bourse seats that produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the most recent season's production can be immediately claimed from the Agent of the Bourse by the winning candidate, if they are present. Any production that is not claimed is added to their inventory. Subsequent production in later seasons is added to the title holder's inventory before each summit until the last one. The title holder does not receive any production on the run-up to the summit where the title is due to be re-elected - that is reserved for whoever wins the auction for the title at the summit.

For other titles that do not produce large amounts of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium, the winning candidate receives whatever production or access to a ministry the title provides in the following downtime, until the title is elected again.

==Removal==
The Bourse is explicitly protected from interference from the [[Synod]] in the [[Imperial Constitution]]. Because of this, it is not possible to revoke a Bourse seat holder to remove them from their position. They serve until the title is reelected or until they die or step down.

Great work

2026-08-20T19:28:16Z

Emmanovi: /* Current Great Works */ Added City of Dreams

<quote by="Cesare Sanguineo Rezia Di Tassato, Senator for Tassato">...long term economic investment into the infrastructure of the Empire</quote>
==Overview==
A great work is any major economic investment which is sufficiently large in scope that it provides a benefit to the inhabitants of an entire territory. The return can take the form of money, herbs, [[Game_items#Materials|materials for crafting items]] or mana crystals.

Great works do not automatically result in the creation of an Imperial title, as most great works do not require anyone to oversee them. The Senate may choose to create a [[New_Imperial_titles#Custodian|custodian]] for a great work - an Imperial title with the responsibility to look after the great work.

There are a number of important rules that impact great works, setting the costs, restricting the benefits, and imposing limitations any of which may be superseded by an appropriate [[opportunity]].

==Senate Commissions==
The [[Senate]] may pass a motion for the construction of infrastructure capable of improving the wealth generated by resources in a territory.

It is not possible for the Senate to pass a motion to upgrade a great work, but they can construct additional great works that further the level of investment in the territory.

===Benefits===
Each great work is linked to a specific type of personal resource in a specific territory. Every member of that nation who attended the last event and who owns the appropriate personal resource in the territory gains the benefit. A starting character will not receive the benefit of a great work in their first pack.

Each great work lifts the level of investment in a territory, providing a small fixed benefit to everyone from that nation in the territory. The higher the final level of investment, the greater the benefits. Every personal resource gains from the level of investment in a territory, regardless of who owns them.

The type of benefit received is restricted to the normal production of a resource. Raising the level of investment in [[farm|farms]] or [[business|businesses]] provides additional money while raising the level of investment for [[mana site|mana sites]] provides additional mana crystals.

Great works that raise the level of investment of mines of forests, work for all mines in a territory regardless of type or for all forests. Every affected [[mine]] or [[forest]] gains the appropriate ingots or measures. Great works that benefits [[herb garden|herb gardens]] may specify which bonus herbs they provide.

<table class="wikitable" style="width: 500px; float: right;">
<tr><th>Type</th><th>Resource</th><th>Type</th><th>Resource</th></tr>
<tr><td>[[Business]]</td><td>White Granite</td><td>[[Herb garden]]</td><td>Weirwood</td><tr>
<tr><td>[[Farm]]</td><td>Weirwood</td><td>[[Mana site]]</td><td>Mithril</td><tr>
<tr><td>[[Forest]]</td><td>White Granite</td><td>[[Mine]]</td><td>Mithril</td><tr>
<tr><td>[[Congregation]]</td><td>White Granite</td><td>[[Fleet]]</td><td>Weirwood</td><tr>
</table>

===Costs===
* Materials: Variable (minimum 50 wains)
* Time: 3 months to construct per 50 wains of materials used
* Labour: 3 crowns per wain
* Upkeep: None

To raise the level of investment to one costs 50 wains. Each subsequent level of investment costs 25 additional wains. So to take the level of investment from one to two costs 75 more wains, from two to three costs 100 more wains and so on. Each level of investment provides the same benefits. It is possible for a single vast great work to raise the level of investment by any number of levels provided it is sufficiently large, but it does not produce any benefits for anyone until it is complete.

Under normal circumstances, the material required will be the one associated with upgrading an equivalent personal resource. For example, 50 wains of mithril is required to create a great work that raises the level of investment for [[mana site|mana sites]] to one. The table shows the ''total'' costs in wains for the first four levels of investment, with the ''total'' benefits, but there is no limit to how high the level of investment can be lifted in a territory. The costs and benefits continue to rise at the rates shown for subsequent levels.

==Limitations==
* '''Great works can never provide additional votes in the Synod'''
* '''Great works supporting fleets can only be built in coastal regions and can only boost trade with a foreign nation'''
* '''Military units cannot benefit from a standard great work'''
Great works that raise the level of investment for congregations only provide additional liao - it is not possible for a great work to provide additional votes in the Synod.

Great works that benefit fleets can only be built in a region with the coastal [[Region qualities|quality]]. A great work that benefits fleets raises the effective level of the fleet when trading with a foreign nation. It is not possible to use a great work to raise the level of a fleet for other downtime options without an appropriate [[opportunity]].

It is not possible to create a great work which is linked to military units without an appropriate opportunity.

Great works cannot be upgraded, but the Imperial Senate may create a new commission that acts to further raise the level of investment in a territory for a specific type of resource.

==Responsibility==
Great works can be threatened by barbarians on campaign, in a battle, or on a skirmish. In rare cases where someone must take responsibility for a great work, the Senator for a territory is expected to do so, if no Imperial title is associated with the commission.

==Multiple Great Works==
Great works cannot be upgraded, but the Imperial Senate may create a new commission to build a subsequent great work in a territory that acts to further raise the level of investment for a specific type of resource there. For instance, the shipyards at Madruga raise the level of investment in Madruga to one for all businesses providing them 36 additional rings. The Senate could authorise the creation of a vast rope works in Siroc in Madruga that would lift the level of investment to two, costing 75 wains and providing an additional 36 rings.

The level of investment in a territory is separate for each type of personal resource that is affected, so if the Empire built a series of canals in Madruga that raised the level of investment for farms that would cost 50 wains and provide 36 rings to every farm.

It is not possible to commission a new great work that increases investment in a given resource while another great work increasing investment in the same resource is in progress in the same territory. The original great work commission would need to be completed, abrogated, or lapse before the new great work could be commissioned. This does not prevent the commissioning of a new great work that targets a different resource to an existing commission that is currently underway.

==Opportunities==
A wind of fortune may present an [[opportunity]] to construct a great work which exceeds some of the normal rules presented here. It may raise the level of investment in more than one territory at once, or for more than one type of personal resource at once.

An opportunity will always state how many levels of investment it represents (usually one) but it may provide non-standard benefits, for example a wind of fortune might present plans for a seed bank, a great work that could be built in Miaren that would increase the level of investment by one for herb gardens but provide all herb gardens with 30 rings. Additional great works built in the territory treat the seed bank as if it were a standard great work that had already raised the level of investment by one for herb gardens in Miaren.
==Great Lighthouses==
* '''A ''great lighthouse'' would be a great work benefitting fleets'''
* '''Standard costs would be 40 wains of weirwood or white granite and 10 wains of mithril, to provide the first level of investment in a territory'''
* '''A lighthouse that supports fleets must be built in a region with the coastal quality'''
Following the Summer 387YE [[For_those_in_peril_on_the_sea#A_Welcoming_Beacon|symposium on lighthouses]] called by [[Appraisal#Eilian_Sweetwater|Eilian Sweetwater]], Imperial architects pooled their knowledge on the construction of lighthouses. A ''great lighthouse'' would be a massive structure of white granite or weirwood with mithril mirrors at the top, and may incorporate a boat station operated by volunteers who seek to preserve life in the case of a disaster. This kind of lighthouse is a specific [[great work]] that benefits [[fleet|fleets]]. It is effectively an [[opportunity]] available to anyone who can commission a great work.

A ''great lighthouse'' must be built in a region with the [[Region_qualities#Coastal|coastal]] quality. The lighthouse represents a level of investment in [[fleet|fleets]] based in the territory. A lighthouse uses a combination of either weirwood and white granite, and an amount of mithril for the mirrors. Adding the first level of investment takes 40 wains of weirwood or white granite, and 10 wains of mithril. Lighthouses adding higher levels of investment need proportionally more mithril and either white granite or weirwood.

This kind of lighthouse receives a paragraph on the appropriate territory page, as well as adding an entire rank to the effectiveness of any fleet based in the territory that takes a [[Fleet#Trading|trading]] action during downtime. The weakness of such a great work is that it is relatively easy to damage if the region where it is built is captured by an enemy. The practical nature of the [[Grendel]] means they are broadly unlikely to do such a thing - Governor Rahab's anger and greed making him an exception - but the Children of Wrecks actively enjoy destroying lighthouses.

'''OOC Note:''' A ''great lighthouse'' is a specific example of a great work that can be built with non-standard materials, and can only be constructed in a region with a specific quality. Anyone who can commission a great work could specify that they are building a great lighthouse. The amounts given here are for the first level of investment in fleets in a territory; higher levels of investment will require proportionally more materials.
