384YE Summer Solstice Synod judgements

Latest revision as of 16:26, 4 May 2023

The Synod recognises both the virtue, and the wickedness, of Imperial citizens.

Overview

During the Summer Solstice 384YE Summit, the Imperial Synod raised 165 judgements.

Considerations

The following considerations should be borne in mind when bringing judgements before the Imperial Synod during the Summer Solstice.

All Assemblies: Statements that prioritise the greater good over personal loyalties are less effective. This is permanent effect of the Eyes of Loyalty.
All Assemblies: Statements that try to compel Loyalty will fail. This is permanent effect of the Eyes of Loyalty.
All Assemblies: Revocations and Excommunications for disloyalty to the nation or Empire would risk causing dissent. This is permanent effect of the Eyes of Loyalty.
All Assemblies: Any mandate that does not pass with a greater majority will have limited or no effect on Urizen or Varushka. It is not impossible that a mandate might lead to a response in one of the two nations, but it won't lead to any immediate consequences for the people of the nation. This lasts until some new turn of events changes things. Urizen Link. Varushka Link.
All Assemblies: No statement of principle that is about Sulemaine i Taziel will lead to a mandate. Lasts until at least the end of the Winter Solstice 384YE and potentially longer. Link.
Virtue Assemblies: Any statement of principle in any virtue assembly will not create a mandate for that virtue assembly. If any mandate does arise, then it will need to be passed by the General Assembly. Lasts until the end of the Winter Solstice 384YE. Link.
Highguard Assembly: for the coming year statements of principle in the Highborn Assembly that do not directly address matters of orthodoxy and false beliefs in the Empire will be significantly less likely to result in a mandate. Lasts until the end of the Summer Solstice 384YE. Link.
Highguard and Dawn Assemblies: Statements of principle in either assembly that receive a greater majority may create opportunities in the other assembly. Lasts until the end of the Autumn Equinox 384YE Link.

Change of doctrine

No change of doctrine was proposed during the Summer Solstice summit.

Veto

No veto was sought during the Summer Solstice 384YE.

Statement of Principle

Judgement 6

Assembly: General
Raised By: Vasili, Pride of Ossium
Judgement: To aid our Sumaah cousins in dismantling the Asavean slave trade is an act of the highest virtue. To prosecute any Imperial citizen who undertakes this mission of mercy and manumissions would be the most heinous act of political cowardice. We the general assembly urge all those with fleets who hold virtue in their hearts to sail to Asavea and bring the liberty that we thrive under to those in chains, and naught but the bloody axe edge to their so-called masters.
Outcome: Upheld 1113 to 24

Judgement 8

Assembly: General
Raised By: Genoveva Barossa di Tassato
Judgement: When the Inquisitorial Court was created in Summer 379, it was decided that Inquisitors should have the power to raise a judgement of inquisition in addition to their usual judgement and that the additional judgement would follow all the usual rules of a priest's judgement in terms of scrutiny and voting. It is now the view of the Inquisitorial court that, while this aids us in performing our roles, it means that in most circumstances it is difficult to perform an inquisition in the same summit as we hear of the need for one. This has on at least one occasion led to a person only being excommunicated after their death as the escalation could not be done sooner. We call on the Imperial Senate to amend the powers of the Virtue Inquisitors so that their additional judgement of Inquisition is automatically passed without a vote. The constitutional court have previously ruled that this is possible.
Outcome: Upheld 1660 to 20

Judgement 11

Assembly: League
Raised By: Rafael Barossa di Tassato
Judgement: The Modnos family of Faraden have claimed responsibility for burning the Blood Red River Museum in Tassato Mestra. There can be no doubt that we owe them a Reckoning. We must make clear our defiance against any who would attack us. Let us rebuild the Museum even larger and grander than ever before, in the spirit of the Paragon Richilde. Let us show the world this symbol of our National Pride. Let us swell the congregations of Tassato's Bishops of Pride as our people embrace our shared past. And when it is complete, let us invite the citizens of Faraden to see that Tassato stands Proud.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 360 to 0

Judgement 14

Assembly: General
Raised By: Tiana i Zayden i Riqueza
Judgement: In 383 our virtuous fleets went to Vorlach, broke the Grendel's chains, and freed the slaves. In Winter, we went to Axos and brought back the Tamazi orcs. Now Sumaah have sounded the charge to do so again, to free the slaves of Chalonsio. Last season the synod agreed with Preceptor Yevanshka that 'to allow to commit enslavement is to commit a spiritual crime.' We call upon the Senate to legalise a Fleet action to support our Sumash brethren and free those slaves to follow in the Way.
Outcome: Upheld 1398 to 68

Judgement 16

Assembly: Loyalty
Raised By: Able the Taller of Zenith Ascendant
Judgement: The Loyalty assembly condemns slavery in all its forms wherever it occurs in the world. To enslave another is to utterly deny them any chance to be truly virtuous and as such represents a spiritual threat as severe as any other facing the Empire. Loyalty is proven not through words, or deeds but by the unity of both. This assembly will gladly recognise and reward the Virtue of anyone who draws upon the inspiration of the Marked and demonstrates this principle in the struggle to eliminate this blight.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 423 to 0

Judgement 17

Assembly: Highguard
Raised By: Brother Luke
Judgement: Last season, we, the Highborn Assembly, condemned the Druj's tactics. Cruelty is nothing more than a wellspring of Fear, Hatred, and Vengeance, poisoning the spirit as the Druj poison the land. However, they are not the only force of Cruelty affecting the Empire. Vigilance drives us to seek out the poison in your neighbour's fields, lest your own crops be blighted, and Loyalty calls on us to unify our words and actions. We as Highborn have the weight of Virtue in our hearts, and as such we do not have the immunity of ignorance. We cannot ask our brave soldiers to fight and die to eliminate Druj cruelty while ignoring the same inflicted by our Varushkan cousins. Our hypocrisy is seen by all who live within and without our Empire, and we are judged for it. The Varushkans are a people of a great nation and a vital part of our shared Empire, their lands are harsh, but their people are renowned for their Wisdom and Prosperity. We call upon them to demonstrate this by turning away from the folly of Cruelty and finding new ways to fight in accordance with their National Character. Until they do so, the Highguard Assembly is compelled to condemn the Iron Helm's use of Cruel tactics - the Druj's tactics - to ensure that the taint of Cruelty does not spread to others.
Outcome: Upheld 268-197

Judgement 18

Assembly: Highguard
Raised By: Tabris, Son of Armisael
Judgement: With work underway to restore the docks at Elos, and the opportunity to restore the docks at Atalaya, it would seem the Empire is finally beginning to claim its naval history. But the Freeborn and the Urizeni are not the only people with a naval history. Remember our forebears, who crossed the Sea of Sighs from the lands now known as the Sarcophan Delves, led by the Paragon Atun and the Exemplar Atuman. Remember Barabbas, the third Highborn Throne, whose focus on seaborne trade and warfare led the Empire to as yet unmatched naval heights. Their skills and knowledge have been passed to the current generation of Highborn, and in the case of Barabbas, lessons have been learned from mistakes caused by his lack of Vigilance. The time has come to display your seagoing Pride, and remind the world of the strength of Highborn sailors!
Outcome: Upheld 326-0

Judgement 22

Assembly: General
Raised By: Bleakshield Rhuk
Judgement: This Synod agreed that to allow slavery is a spiritual crime, and that thralls and slaves are the same. This Empire is once again complicit in slavery and needs to be held accountable for its unholy crimes.
Outcome: Upheld 1117-390

Judgement 24

Assembly: General
Raised By: Astraea
Judgement: On several occasions the Empire has ceded regions of various nations to foreign powers. While this was for the benefit of our Empire, it has given our foreign rivals a beachhead as to threaten or invade us in the future. These past actions were short-sighted and unvirtuous and those responsible should be held accountable.
Outcome: Upheld 751-745

Judgement 26

Assembly: Dawn
Raised By: Pelleas Montrose
Judgement: We hear the call of the Imperial Orcs to manifest our Pride. We call on our Virtuous to aid them, by returning the bones you can find of the countless orcs who died on our lands bound in chains. Citizens of Dawn, be inspired by the great efforts of our noble houses and others who have given prosperously to the construction of the Imperial Orcs ossuary. List of noble houses follows
Outcome: Upheld 204-0

Judgement 27

Assembly: Dawn
Raised By: Earl of Fools
Judgement: The Troubadours know stories and Virtue, / Exemplars, paragons, their tales lessons. / But if the Freefolk way so set in stone... / (please do excuse my monumental pun) / (and the second pun... I mean the statues) / That is to say if their way so in name, / Is as Imperial Way so in deed, / Then let them come before the Troubadours, / And speak of what lessons in Virtue learned / The statues to serve as prompts for these tales.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 240-10

Judgement 28

Assembly: General
Raised By: Estella Lucati di Sarvos
Judgement: The Synod must display greater Vigilance over tenured titles. The Spider's Tollkeep has not been represented at Anvil for nearly six years and nobody has noticed. There are Synod sinecures whose holders have never raised a judgement - so how do we know they are voting? In a change of policy, the Civil Service will start putting titles up for re-election if they are absent for over a year. The Civil Service should not have to do the Synod's job of Vigilant Overseer - and a year or more of waste is too high a price to pay. The Synod must step up. National Assemblies - make note of the tenured titles under your jurisdiction, apply greater Vigilance and use the powers of the Synod.
Outcome: Upheld 893-157

Judgement 29

Assembly: General
Raised By: Tarquinius Ankarien
Judgement: Priests of Ambition, Prosperity and Vigilance should travel to Tarquinius' congregation in Ankarien, Spiral to engage with the Grendel on Virtues we have in common and leverage access to hallowing and anointing of these Virtues to ensure support for the people of Spiral. It would be premature to try to convert Grendel to the Way, but their descendant's situation my be different and they deserve ancestors with a solid grounding in true Virtue.
Outcome: Upheld 1551-64

Judgement 30

Assembly: General
Raised By: Jared of the Suns of Couros
Judgement: My fellow priests, please ensure the allocation process for the Lepidean dose of true liao remains virtuous. Vote for those that inspire you; vote against those you see as petty, selfish, dishonest, or dangerous. Let none pass without your judgement. For those who seek to acquire this dose, believe in the virtue of your judgement and set your voting deadline no earlier than 6pm on Saturday of each summit. We should not rush this allocation.
Outcome: Upheld 1198-181

Judgement 31

Assembly: General
Raised By: Alfmund Fordwinsson
Judgement: Greater education and understanding on the purpose and practice of inquisition is needed across the Empire. The work of inquisiting priests is all too often misunderstood, feared needlessly, or twisted to further the vendettas of others. Upholding the core tents of each and every virtue is at the heart of every inquisition. As Adelmar inspired others to improve their martial prowess, we must educate everyone that inquisition is just as much for recognising and celebrating an abundance of virtue, as it is for investigating virtue's absence. We call upon priests to share their methods and encourage the laity to bear up their souls to be judged.
Outcome: Upheld 1760-49

Judgement 32

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Lynneeve Greiver
Judgement: Navarr should officially declare our gratitude toward Bertrand of the House Sepulchre for his virtuous efforts in trying to construct the Greenwood Manor. This will serve as a staging point for knight of Dawn who are gloriously fighting against the vallorn. He displays virtues of loyalty to Navarr.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 278-12

Judgement 34

Assembly: General
Raised By: Etienne de Gauvain
Judgement: Just as we should remain Vigilant within each Virtue, we must also remain Vigilant within each Nation. We support the creation of National Inquisitors by the Senate.
Outcome: Upheld 1142-550

Judgement 35

Assembly: Imperial Orc
Raised By: Stormcrow Skred
Judgement: The Imperial Orcs have always been a martial nation - the Hammer of the Empire. Whilst we show Pride in our military units by giving their captains the vote, we do not show Pride in our smaller, but just as impactful, naval traditions. Following successes in Dubhtraig, Axos, and Feroz, we should acknowledge the role of our fleets in these conflicts by enfranchising captains who take the Imperial Guerdon.
Outcome: Upheld 45-0

Judgement 36

Assembly: Wintermark
Raised By: ẞten Hansson
Judgement: Cunning Suaq! Look to Ambitious Sermersuaq, and share tales of her superhuman strength. When one human can kill a seal with a rap of her knuckles, imagine the potential of an entire army inspired by the same. The Jotun amass in Olgafdottirshal and should not be there. Even the most impenetrable forest falls one tree at a time. This fort contains a forest of orcs. They will fall before you!
Outcome: Upheld with Primacy, 216-0

Judgement 37

Assembly: Pride
Raised By: Sagua i Ezmara
Judgement: Pride lifts others and inspires with their tales. The Master of the Koboldi does not work alone. As such we acknowledge the prosperity of Edmundo of Damakhan's Forge, who provided the resources for recent improvements to the Court of the White Fountain. We also acknowledge the hard work of the koboldi, heralds of Adamant, in infusing it into the fortress in preparation for the casting of the permanent enchantment by mages of Urizen organised by Cato Auricspire. Together we achieve greatness.
Outcome: Upheld 229-70

Judgement 40

Assembly: Highguard
Raised By: Levi of the Navigators
Judgement: The Highborn were refugees and thus we understand the plight of others in similar circumstances. Therefore we ask the Highborn people to open their doors to any refugees fleeing persecution from foreign powers. As long as they willingly learn about the Way from the Highborn.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 452-0

Judgement 47

Assembly: Imperial Orc
Raised By: Redhand Nirak
Judgement: The ancestors play an important role in our lives as Orcs, especially for those of us who hear them frequently. They have strong words that allow us as individuals and a nation to grow and thrive. If we are to grow as a nation, rather than be temporary inhabitants of these lands, I believe we should record with the written word; the names, words, and deeds of all of the ancestors we can hear carefully. If we do this we will gain the ability to inspire future generations with the words of the past, we could also understand as a group the most powerful and successful ancestors we can hear, but also it could be the beginning of a conversation about our ancestors and theirs with other orcish groups and nations that share this world with us.
Outcome: Upheld 59-12

Judgement 50

Assembly: General
Raised By: Lysimachus
Judgement: Can the Empire truly be called Prosperous if we cannot reward the virtuous? If we cannot share our prosperity, are we truly faithful? Do we not believe in the virtue fund? If even the most broke-ass pilgrim can share a ring from their poverty can not the more prosperous share more?
Outcome: Upheld 689-611

Judgement 51

Assembly: General
Raised By: Cadwaladr Springwake
Judgement: The concealment of feelings can lead people down the dark path of introspection, which in turn can lead to apathy, despair, and ultimately inaction. Courage teaches us that we are to face all unwelcome truths of the world, as bravely as any tangible obstacle of our lives. We implore priests of the Empire to encourage citizens and aid them in opening up about troubling emotions and events they are struggling with to stymie inaction before it can take hold.
Outcome: Upheld 1360-283

Judgement 52

Assembly: Pride
Raised By: Jenny Arbor
Judgement: On behalf of Jedediah Boon of the Ore Hills; as per judgement 105, Spring 384YE, the Marcher National Assembly has recognised the equal value of all those who work the land, be they farmers or otherwise. However, the nation has been slow to respond. Hence, the Pride assembly encourages all Marcher miners, foresters, herb gardeners, and those who support them to engage in peaceful protest within the law to draw attention to the Pride they take in their work and the current situation.
Outcome: Upheld 253-160

Judgement 57

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Telyn Stormtree
Judgement: Our lifestyle makes us uniquely suited to deal with the effects of rituals such as Wither the Seed. We encourage citizens who wish to create families and raise children to leave territories cursed in this way and join stridings and steadings elsewhere to achieve this wish, and return when they have done so. If the Thule are able to do this, to keep Emrys at bay, virtuous Navarri should be able to make this sacrifice until the time comes to break the curse.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 238-42

Judgement 59

Assembly: Wintermark
Raised By: Cynerik
Judgement: The battle during the Spring Summit was hard and bloody for Wintermark. We left many fallen behind. We encourage Wintermark to rally support to recover their bodies by reasonable means. This will demonstrate our loyalty to our heroic dead, our Pride to their sacrifice and our courage to return to those distant lands. May our heroes sleep in Kallavesa.
Outcome: Upheld 148-0

Judgement 60

Assembly: Urizen
Raised By: Herminius
Judgement: Across Urizen there are many construction works being planned, fortresses to shore up our border, docks to increase our prosperity, sinecures, ministries, and let us not forget the damage which will need to be repaired in Zenith. I call for all knowledgeable and virtuous citizens of Urizen to pool one of our most unique resources, our ushabti and put them to the task of aiding in the construction and reconstruction of larger building works in Redoubt, Morrow, and when the time comes Zenith. Share your resources and aid our architects, to first aid in building the Elos Docks in Redoubt.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 274-0

Judgement 61

Assembly: Urizen
Raised By: Elagabala
Judgement: The Urizen National Assembly recognises Kindra Edasdottir, general of the Fist of the Mountains, and thanks her for her actions. Her decision to come to Zenith shows great Loyalty and Courage, and her Virtue should be extolled. The people of Wintermark should be proud of their general. Pride inspires others to virtue, it does not demean them.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 215-0

Judgement 63

Assembly: Pride
Raised By: Luciana Valesi di Sarvos
Judgement: The Pride assembly has previously declared that we should uplift lineaged voices. In light of this, the Empire should show this in an official capacity through the formation of a lineage caucus.
Outcome: Not upheld 154-161

Judgement 66

Assembly: Loyalty
Raised By: Kirenna i Veruna i Riqueza
Judgement: The Senate recently voted against a mission to the Asavea to target the three main slaving families. This is unvirtuous, definitely not loyal, and they should be condemned.
Outcome: Not upheld 73-92

Judgement 67

Assembly: Ambition
Raised By: Ranae de Rondell
Judgement: The Ambition Assembly supports those who would rise up in Sarangrave, but we support them IN THE NAME OF VIRTUE. We do not believe it is necessary nor virtuous to excuse heresy (such as freedom) nor do we desire the support of wild eternals to achieve the Empire's goals. VIRTUE UPLIFTS - heresy drags us down. In support of this belief we offer all the strength that we have to hallow - IN AMBITION - weapons and other resources sent to Sarangrave.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 206-0

Judgement 68

Assembly: General
Raised By: Kaspar Yakovitch von Holberg
Judgement: It is ironic that a call by Urizen's national assembly to support the people of Urizen has given rise to a mandate to support the armies. Those priests of the Empire whose Loyalty calls them to support Urizen should seek ways to support the citizens of Urizen, not just the armies fighting to free their homes.
Outcome: Upheld 1439-114

Judgement 69

Assembly: League
Raised By: Karo Di Yedinso
Judgement: The College of Engineering in Temeschwar is built to the glory of Adamant. It is an affront to the human Pride that Temeschwar's only university belongs to an eternal. The people of Temeschwar should demand a rival human architectural college be built in the city proper .
Outcome: Upheld 168-64

Judgement 71

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Harwyn Eternal
Judgement: The Navarr national assembly recognise the grand work of the Liberty Pact fighting alongside those that reap slaves from the field is tacit acceptance of that abhorrent practice. As such we expect our generals and thorns to reject fighting alongside vile slavers as unvirtuous.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 302-10

Judgement 72

Assembly: Loyalty
Raised By: Galeas Seeker
Judgement: Oathheart has been retrieved and waits a bearer. This would not have been possible without the efforts of Skywise Gralka and Veikko Bondforger, along with the heroes who took the field with us to aid its return. Loyalty is shown by words and deeds together. Both Skywise Gralka and Veikko Bondforger pledged to retrieve the shield and to help with my Test of Mettle in the process. May congregations across the Empire celebrate this moment!
Outcome: Upheld 243-0

Judgement 77

Assembly: Prosperity
Raised By: Immeldar i Ezmaria i Erigo
Judgement: Prosperity teaches us that we work hard for our rewards and share with the worthy. Time and time again Varushka's have shared what they have to strengthen the Empire. Varushkan weirwood built the Iron Qanat. A number of our armies are built on Varushkan mithril. We thank Varushka for their Prosperity.
Outcome: Upheld 204-0

Judgement 78

Assembly: Highguard
Raised By: Brother Aemon
Judgement: Pride teaches us it is in what we do we should be proud. We lineaged of Highguard and the Highborn National Assembly declare that unveiling is a valid spiritual discipline as it is a physical representation that our immortal human souls will triumph over the siren call of our blood. Should that individual do this of their own volition, then they draw Virtue from their actions; indeed to enforce or coerce a lineaged individual to unveil against their will is deplorable as it removes the opportunity for the lineaged person to act in their virtue.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority, 512-0

Judgement 82

Assembly: Dawn
Raised By: Vivane Knotes
Judgement: True Love, is one of the highest callings of Dawn, and no effort should be spared in its pursuit. Where a noble of Dawn falls in love with a citizen of another nation that love should be celebrated and exalted as any other, provided the Imperial citizen has done right by the traditions of Dawn and passed both a test of Mettle and a test of Ardour, each from a different house and of even greater difficulty than the norm.
Outcome: Upheld 170-10

Judgement 84

Assembly: General
Raised By: Jonah Yakovitch von Holberg
Judgement: The walls of Holberg have been blessed with a true aura of Wisdom. At the same time, a miraculous secondary Wisdom aura occurred at the Holmauer Gate. In the presence of these auras, spontaneous dedications to wisdom are occurring. There is an opportunity to make Holberg the greatest fortification in the known world, at no additional cost to the Empire. Word will spread and pilgrims whill come from beyond our borders. By raising the walls with the intention of spreading word of the way beyond our borders, this is an act of Salvation. Give prosperously to this cause. See Prince-Bishop Jonah Yakovitch von Holberg to make your donation and have your name recorded in the ledger.
Outcome: Upheld 931-185

Judgement 86

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Nathair Autumngale
Judgement: Wisdom knows all knowledge is incomplete, the Navarr national assembly reject the idea that there is "not one thing" to be learned from studying Terunael. The Orichalcum Sun of Emrys and mines of the Sungold Pass are but two examples of how this statement is false. As custodian, I invite (?) residents and students from Holberg to visit the Great Library of Hacynian to enlighten their ignorance and learn the value of libraries.
Outcome: Upheld 128-22

Judgement 87

Assembly: General
Raised By: Ashborn Pakt
Judgement: To strike at the heart of the idolatrous seat of the "God of Chains" - a "god" of worshipping slavery - is of the utmost virtue. Any who should seek to do so regardless of the will of Senate, will find a virtue defence unassailable. Thus we encourage all those for whom the flame of Ambition drives them to strike out at Chalonsion Asavea to take up arms knowing their actions are virtuous.
Outcome: Withdrawn (350-52 at time of withdrawal)

Judgement 90

Assembly: General
Raised By: Dr Tolamy
Judgement: Lineaged citizens are fighting the realm influence every day. They should be given a chance to show their virtue and not condemned as a crazy lineage. These slanders can strengthen the realm influences. They need our loyalty to give them the strength to keep fighting.
Outcome: Upheld 802-277

Judgement 91

Assembly: Loyalty
Raised By: Skywise Gralka
Judgement: Soldiers of the Imperial orc legions it is known Empire wide you are loyal to the core, what is to come in the next season will test your resolve but the Imperial Orc nation calls you to action. We cannot tolerate slavery or those who benefit from it be they Imperial or otherwise. Not all battles are fought with blades. We will hold these people to account and live up to the legacy of our past.
Outcome: Upheld 150-0

Judgement 94

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Neala Blackhawk
Judgement: We the Navarr assembly think that its time to make the Great Library of Hacynia greater, expanding the complex and making it a true Empire-wide centre of history and learning.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 292-0

Judgement 95

Assembly: General
Raised By: Aneira Exiles End
Judgement: We, priests of the Empire, reflect with sadness on some of the events in Whittle - namely the killing of some children who were not of age to have taken their citizens test. Where children are concerned there must be alternatives to support them finding the way. Rather than execution, spiritual re-education is the best course of action.
Outcome: Upheld 461-103

Judgement 96

Assembly: Highguard
Raised By: Lev
Judgement: It is not prosperous to work the Syrene's Wisdom at any cost. If the working conditions worsen due to Imperial use of magic, the labourers should wait until the Senate repairs Syrene's Wisdom.
Outcome: Upheld 314-0

Judgement 97

Assembly: Way
Raised By: Yosephus Morningston
Judgement: Ambition, Courage, Loyalty, Pride, Prosperity, Vigilance, Wisdom. There are seven virtues in the Way. It is natural for citizens to approach the Way by focussing on one of the Seven, but when they do so priests should remind them to seek balance and not neglect the other six.
Outcome: Upheld 109-42

Judgement 99

Assembly: League
Raised By: Damocli di Mestra
Judgement: I would like to raise a sect of priests of the League to better organise our exorcism needs. The sect would grant various benefits including increased communication and access to resources. Now, more than ever we must be vigilant of the spiritual needs of our citizens.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 250-0

Judgement 100

Assembly: Wintermark
Raised By: Eldrick Lindwulf
Judgement: That Helgunn Chargebringer, who was a virtuous hero of Wintermark both an example to all on and off the battlefield, be recorded in the Chronicle of Heroes.
Outcome: Upheld 176-0

Judgement 101

Assembly: League
Raised By: Alessi di Trivento
Judgement: Disregarding Imperial history does us a disservice and only furthers the accusations that we care only for ourselves. The League National assembly encourages citizens of Holberg to accept the invitation to attend the library of Hacynian to further their knowledge. Whilst there we also encourage them to make use of their new anointing and the information stored there to help consider new angles to approaching the issue of the Vallorn.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 316-0

Judgement 102

Assembly: General
Raised By: Lady Eleanor Novarion
Judgement: The Freefolk have demonstrated great pride and courage. I encourage all priests to engage in patient discourse with Freefolk as they learn more about the Way. Do not forget your adherence to the Imperial Way during these discussions.
Outcome: Upheld 1598-39

Judgement 103

Assembly: Nine
Raised By: Clytemnestra
Judgement: The Empire has decided slavery is inherently unvirtuous. The Empire has championed and signed the Liberty Pact. The Empire believes orcs and humans are equally deserving of salvation from slavery. The Empire must support the Liberty Pact. The senate must support anti-slavery actions, it must not support slave-taking nations. We must be the virtuous example to the rest of the world.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 6-2

Judgement 104

Assembly: Navarr
Raised By: Narelle Bridin
Judgement: We the Navarr assembly wish to call attention to a new national festival at the Autumn summit. With the "Falling of Leaves" we will remember and celebrate grand acts within the nation and those who have fallen. To this end a corpse glade will be set up within the nation's camp and one of the nights of Songs and Stories dedicated to the festivities.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 340-10

Judgement 105

Assembly: Imperial Orc
Raised By: Bloodcrow Udoo
Judgement: Out of Loyalty to this Empire's ideals, we shall not stand by and watch it trade away its own virtue for cheap victory. Our armies will not fight for the Empire while the slave pact with the Thule remains in place.
Outcome: Upheld 65-0

Judgement 108

Assembly: General
Raised By: Kaywenn du Launcet
Judgement: The General assembly resolves to combat the upwelling of HATE and effects of the DRUJ MIASMA and demoralising tactics in ZENITH! To quell the tide of HATE and uplift our troops and citizens spirits we wish to send ZERO, HIGH BARD OF EMPIRE and LADY KAYWENN DU LAUNCET CHAMPION OF PRIDE to preach and celebrate the seven virtues in the face of our mutual foe.
Outcome: Upheld 1,320-0

Judgement 110

Assembly: General
Raised By: Maarit Suvidottir
Judgement: We support efforts to engage in theological dialogue with the Freefolk. We remind - they must not preach, speak of or encourage their non-doctrinally supported beliefs with the laity. It is blasphemy to talk of Paragons as beings who will come back from beyond the Labyrinth to interact with us.
Outcome: Upheld 1084-118

Judgement 112

Assembly: Nine
Raised By: Clarice Novarion
Judgement: The Way of Virtue is founded on evidence. Historical research now confirms that doctrine was codified with no thought for orcs. It is unacceptable to treat our orc siblings in faith as an afterthought. Orcs must be fully integrated into Doctrine. Yet the Doctrines are interrelated: changing one requires changing others. We do not need piecemeal haphazard tinkering by individuals. We need a unified programme of Doctrinal reform. The Nine will appoint a council of up to seven theologians, including at least two Imperial Orc preachers. This council will review all the Doctrines together as a whole, then submit any proposed changes for the debate and judgement of the General Assembly. Priests willing to contribute should present themselves to the Nine at the Autumn Equinox 384YE. Gather your Courage, Wisdom, and Vigilance. The time has come for reform.
Outcome: Upheld with Primacy 8-0

Judgement 113

Judgement 118

Assembly: Navarr

Assembly: Varushka
Raised By: Yevanshka
Judgement: Isember is the result of the curdling of the spirit that occurs when the hard lessons taught by Exemplar Thrace and the Virtuous Rebellion when they rose up there and Ambitiously broke their chains are not heeded. Banditry is the result of a spirit gorged on blaspheming against Prosperity, Pride, and Ambition. We extoll the Virtue of all those who took part in this purge of the wicked. We call upon the Storytellers and Wise Ones of Varushka to remember Isember only for this lesson: to act against Virtue is to sicken yourself and your community, for all your actions will lead only to ruin.
Outcome: Upheld with Primacy 340-0

Judgement 123

Assembly: Varushka
Raised By: Zivka Mrakouna
Judgement: We recognise that many threats face the empire, but it is undeniable that slavery is an indelible stain on the souls of all who practice or support it. Thus slavery is a mortal threat to the souls of the entire world. It is the most pernicious, vile, and despicable practice in existence and must be opposed in all places by all means. We in Varushka believe the destruction of the institution of slavery is a truly noble and virtuous action and assert this commitment does not diminish (something) to recognise or challenge other threats to the Empire.

Judgement 155

Assembly: Nine

Evaluation

The Synod made the following judgements of excommunication, inquisition, revocation, and sanction.

Judgement 4

Assembly: Brass Coast
Raised By: Zumurrud i Salvara i Riqueza
Judgement: Inquisition. Ezro i Alvara i Erigo, the Imperial Fleetmaster, has been accused of acting without virtue in his dealings with the Grendel at the Spring Solstice 384YE. Principally, the Imperial Fleetmaster is said to have acted without Vigilance in failing to bring a Scrivener to negotiations with the Grendel, and without Loyalty or Prosperity in the way those negotiations were conducted. I ask Ezro i Alvara i Erigo to attend an Inquisition at 10:30pm on Friday night of the Summer Solstice 384YE, to be held in the Fijadoz camp in the Brass Coast.
Outcome: Upheld 158-0

Judgement 9

Assembly: General
Raised By: Genoveva Barossa di Tassato
Judgement: Inquisition. I call to inquisition Kinda Edasdottir, General of the Fist of the Mountains, to answer questions regarding her proposal to cast the ritual Quickening Cold Meat within the Marcher lands. Inquisition to take place at 1pm Saturday of Summer 384 at the Hub.
Outcome: Upheld 361-0

Judgement 10

Assembly: League
Raised By: Genoveva Barossa di Tassato
Judgement: Vindication - Escalation. Following Inquisition at the Summit of Spring 384, I find that Leonora "Nora" Albertina van Holberg has acted with virtue so far in her execution of her role as the Bishop of Looking Glass Lake and in attempting to mitigate the hasty actions of Senate in creating a sinecure on a site with a potentially unvirtuous aura. Nora shows due Courage and Vigilance in investigating the aura and a strong and thoroughly justified sense of responsibility and Pride in the legacy of the Looking Glass magazine and its ties to Holberg and the Lake. A full report of the Inquisition has been posted on the notice board in the Anvil Hub or is available from Genoveva Barossa, Inquisitor of Pride, on request

Judgement 23

Judgement: Vindication. The exulted General of the Varushkan army of the Iron Helms is found to be completely vindicated in their orders to punish the foul Druj forces in the Barrens. Long live the Alderai!
Outcome: Upheld 20-0

Judgement 45

Assembly: Varushka
Raised By: Radim Mirkovich Strascovich
Judgement: Castigation. Storyteller Lenochka is found to have acted unvirtuously in suggesting we should "not shun the motivational power of fear" and by describing fear as a "natural endpoint of vigilance." Fear stands in direct opposition to Courage and to associate it with Vigilance denigrates that virtue. Lenochka accepts that her statement of principle as presented amounted to blasphemy and withdrew it, so while raising it in the first place without considering the implications of her words was a severe failing of both Wisdom and Vigilance due to the withdrawal I am calling only for castigation and not condemnation. I consider that she requires virtuous guidance rather than (something) prosecution. Following her inquisition my judgement is that Lenochka should: Seek out and accept guidance from Courage priests (other than Nikolai the Butcher) on virtuous attitudes to fear. Request from a Courage priest an anointing of the Purity of Courage to provide her with clarity from the influence she has allowed fear to have over her. Given her lack of foresight, any Synod judgement she raises in the next year should be shown to a member of the Varushkan National Assembly before being submitted to the Tribune.
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 192-0

Judgement 49

Assembly: Loyalty
Raised By: Galeas Seeker
Judgement: Vindication Escalation. Having spoken to Vindictus, Inquisitor of Vigilance, it is clear that my fault in his Inquisitorial record was not from his own actions but from a lack of Vigilance in the Vigilance Assembly. Vindictus was re-elected despite not being present for the election and not being able to attend Anvil for a time. I feel confident that Vindictus will be an aid to the Inquisitorial Court now they have returned to Anvil.
Outcome: Upheld 338-20

Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 250-0

Prosperity provides.
Outcome: Upheld 723 - 40

Judgement 81

Assembly: Urizen
Raised By: Galene Netherwatch
Judgement: Penance. I find Andronikos, Senator Redoubt, has acted poorly in arrogance, refusing to listen and speak to the people he represents. Wisdom of which he is a dedicant requires you must listen, and a Senator should be Loyal to their people enough to truly represent their views on the Imperial stage. Thus I charge Andonikos to carry a Hallow of the Stormcrow for a year, and to make a true effort to engage with the hostilities towards him within the nation, to be judged by the national assembly,
Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority 215-0

Judgement 85

Judgement 111

Assembly: Wintermark
Raised By: Elias
Judgement: Vindication. We, the Wintermark assembly, vindicate Desmond Argonning, known as "Red Bear". Honour is not a virtue, it is a political agreement we have entered with the Jotun.

Judgement 119

Assembly: Brass Coast
Raised By: Luca i Taziel i Riqueza
Judgement: Penance. In signing the treaty with the Thule Chiara i Zaydin i Riqueza has acted with both virtue and lack of virtue. With Courage and Loyalty she made a painful choice but that choice was guided by ignorance and haste. Had she been Wise and Vigilant, asking the right questions, she would not have sat before me. But as she has been judged so too does every senator whose name sits on that treaty, and every general who thrust it upon them warrant a judgement. As penance she must find every name which sits beside hers on the treaty. She must ask them the right questions and present their answers to the Freeborn Assembly. They carry the weight of the contracts they signed, as the slaves carry chains.
Outcome: Upheld 108-10

Raised By: Galeas
Judgement: Vindication - Escalation. I have listened to Bloodcrow Udoo on these matters twice and the power, passion, and Virtue of his words has rung clear every time I hear him speak. Udoo, along with many others, is concerned about the path the Empire is taking: a path where we let slavers take new slaves in exchange for their armies; a path where we vote against breaking slavers with our fellows in the Liberty Pact. Are we as an Empire living up to our ideals or are we taking shortcuts for land, economic power, and military might? Have we as an Empire swappedVirtue for those things instead? These are the concerns of Udoo and the orcs. This is why they are withdrawing support from an Empire that consorts with slavers. They are Loyal to the ideals of the Empire but the current incarnation disappoints both them and myself. An untested chain never breaks. The orcs are testing theirs - do not let it break.
Outcome: Upheld 172-0

Judgement 140

Assembly: General
Raised By: Claude Cutter
Judgement: Vindication - Escalation. The Auditor for Senatorial Accountability led the Inquisition of Flavio von Holberg. I praise the senator's Ambition and offer judgement of vindication. I note, however, that no penance I could offer would be a more apt spur to his virtue than his own election promise - to act as a reckoner of the senate's debts. Because of this commitment, I am sure he will turn his attention to clarifying and resolving the matter of the so-called "debt" of Lorenzo. I look forward to seeing the senator Loyally delivering on this.
Outcome: Upheld 818-52

Judgement 141

Assembly: General
Raised By: Claude Cutter
Judgement: Penance - Escalation. The Auditor for Senatorial Accountability led the Inquisition of Gancio di Catazar, the Master of the Mint. The Master of the Mint misinformed Senate. However, I praise his Courage in admitting this mistake and his Prosperous efforts to counter it now. His Ambition is clear, but so is his Loyalty to the Empire and to his Guild - who love him in return. A penance must be set, never the less, for in misinforming Senate Gancio acted with too much haste and credulity. These are matters of Vigilance. With the help of his guild, Gancio's penance is to pay five Thrones (being one percent of the so-called "debt" that caused his error) each to be distributed to five vigilant citizens from across the Empire- and to explain why he has chosen these five to the Auditor. Clarification - the master of the mint did not lie he passed on misinformation - CC.
Outcome: Upheld 894-42

Judgement 143

Assembly: Ambition
Raised By: Alfmund Fordwinsson
Judgement: Inquisition Escalation. I find Bronn "the Warden" Dunwolf to be supremely Loyal both to themselves, their nation, and the Empire, their Throne would be one of unity and apprachability. I recommend an escalation of vindication. A full report will be posted in the hub in the Autumn.
Outcome: Upheld 90-0

Judgement 144

Assembly: Ambition
Raised By: Alfmund Fordwinsson
Judgement: Inquisition Escalation.

A full report will be posted in the Hub in the Autumn.
Outcome: Upheld 66-12

Judgement 148

Assembly: Courage
Raised By: Maarit Suvidottir
Judgement: Penance - Escalation. Escalating Judgement 87, Spring 384. I raise penance for Vuk the Wolfeater Senator for Karov concerning events of Winter 383. His actions suggest he should work on his Courage and Vigilance in his ongoing opposition to slavery. If he would doom no more souls to it and keep the damage from his soul I call upon him to consider what he can do about other, ongoing, and future interactions between the Empire and the other nations at all our borders and across the seasusing his opportunities.
Outcome: Upheld 152-0

Outcome: Upheld 757-448 with a margin of 309. Scrutiny extended by the Cardinal of Loyalty. No true liao was available.

Judgement 7

Assembly: General
Raised By: Rocio i Fijadoz i Guerra
Judgement: It's commonly believed that excommunication prevents us from passing through the Labyrinth, and thus from being reborn. If this is true, it is the highest heresy possible, and we as the Synod must find out the truth. I have been researching the matter for six months now, and have reached the point where I can proceed no further without true liao. Wisdom teaches us to test what we know, and Vigilance teaches us to seek out falsehood and expose the truth - as such, I request that the General Assembly grants me a dose of true liao, so that we can learn more about the fate of those who die excommunicate.
Outcome: Upheld 909-648 with a margin of 261. Scrutiny extended by the Cardinal of Prosperity. No true liao was available.

Judgement 12

Assembly: General
Raised By: Lady Josephine of Adina's Charge
Judgement: True liao rewarding for Farren Silver Streams. These are many in the Empire whose virtuous contributions do not get the recognition they deserve because they quietly get on with it, and do not speak well on their own behalf. I nominate Farren Silver Streams to receive a dose of true liao from the Virtue Fund for the following reasons. The colouring books he has drawn are an easy and fun reference guide that both kids and adults can use to learn more about areas of the Empire they might not know about. The thought and care that have gone into them are obvious to any who read them. He has put hours upon hours of work into assisting those new to Anvil, from helping with skirmishes to quiet conversations to inspire confidence. He has started an Imperial Introverts group. The acknowledgement that not everyone is outgoing and charismatic is important, and knowing someone understands can give people strength even if they do not talk.
Outcome: Upheld 902-658. No true liao was available.

Judgement 20

Assembly: General
Raised By: Lakshmi i Shartha i Riqueza
Judgement: The courage and tenacity shown by those brave souls who ventured into Feroz last season under the eyes of Governor Rahab is a guiding light to us all. Every soul they brought back to the Empire's territories is free to follow their own prosperous lives free of the shadow of tyranny because of their actions. One crown per person is hardly fitting payment but it is what I ask. I ask a rewarding of 25 Thrones be distributed equally to those virutous fleet and military captains.
Outcome: Upheld 989-215 with a margin of 784. 25 Thrones were provided to Lakshmi i Shartha i Riqueza

Judgement 25

Assembly: General
Raised By: Sela of the Suns of Couros
Judgement: I Jericho of the Suns of Couros, custodian of the Imperial War Memorial, seek a dose of true liao to permanently hallow the Book of Dead to Loyalty. The Book of the Dead holds the names of all the valiant Imperial heroes who fell in battle.All nations are united in grief and remembrance. The book.records names and the date when each hero fell, it may one day aid in past life visions. We will all remember why we are here as one united Empire.
Outcome: Upheld 1079-510 with a margin of 569. Scrutiny was extended by the Cardinal of Ambition. The dose of True Liao was disbursed by the Tribune.

Judgement 56

Assembly: General
Raised By: Pontus Figures
Judgement: The opportunity to bring new societies into the Empire and the Way is rare and virtuous. Salvation is a mark of the exemplar. We propose to use the virtue fund to purchase 4 wains of mithril in order to construct the Ethangraw's Armoury in part. Further mithril will be required but once complete the Ethengraw will join the Imperial Orc nation. We ask for 24 Thrones.
Outcome: Upheld 793-184. Margin 609. 24 Thrones were provided to Pontus Figures
