	For many years the only option available to the Synod was to condemn an individual for their invidious actions - criminal or unvirtuous. However following the work of [[Wintermark_religious_beliefs\|stormcrow]] '''Jorma Steelhail''' from 379YE to 380YE, the Senate finally agreed to [[Amend_power_of_Inquisition\|expand the scope of the Synod's powers]] to allow a range of different edicts to be issued - in accordance with the judgement of the Synod.

	The judgement of sanction must name one specific type of sanction; vindication, penance, castigation, or condemnation, that is being weighed against all those named in the judgement. A sanction may be raised by any assembly of the [[~~Imperial~~ Synod]]. When the judgement is raised in a national assembly, it may only be used to sanction members of that nation. The virtue assemblies may raise a judgement against anyone - but they are expected to restrict the remit of their sanction to matters concerning their virtue.

	A priest who conducts an [[inquisition]] may choose to escalate the inquisition to a sanction if they believe it is appropriate. To do this they submit a new judgement of sanction for consideration by the Synod. This judgement does not count against the limit of one judgement per priest per summit, provided it is submitted by the same priest who submitted the judgement of inquisition and that it does not name a new target not named in the inquisition. The new judgement may use less names than the original inquisition, but it may not add a new name to the list.

	~~Though not a religious crime, it is~~ an ~~offense to fail to appear before a legitimate~~ inquisition~~. A magistrate will prosecute the subject~~ for subverting the ~~agency~~ of state ~~if they believe they~~ have ~~failed to attend an inquisition. As a result it is common for a priest to condemn any citizen who refuses to attend their inquisition~~.		Refusal to attend an inquisition is usually sufficient grounds for condemnation and prosecution for subverting the agencies of state, provided that the target or targets could reasonably have attended.
