385YE Summer Solstice Synod judgements

Overview

During the Summer Solstice 385YE Summit, the Imperial Synod raised TBC judgements.

Considerations

This is a placeholder page for content that PD are actively working on.

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.
• Partner of Greatness: The National Assembly of Highguard can submit alternate mandates to mandates presented in any National Assembly. The National Assemblies of Urizen, The League, and Varushka are able to submit alternate mandates to those presented to the Highborn National Assembly. Lasts until the the end of the Winter Solstice 385YE. Link
• A Peerless Kinship: The Highborn National Assembly can pass a statement of principle to call on their nation to support Dawn, Imperial Orcs, the Marches, Wintermark, or Varushka. Lasts until the end of the Winter Solstice 385YE. Link

Mandate

Judgement 16

• Assembly: Highborn
• Raised By: Hazelelponi of the Shattered Tower
• Judgement: The Highborn Assembly sends Hazelelponi of the Shattered Tower with 50 doses of liao to lead the Wayfarers and Pilgrims to Sulemaine's Tomb. We embrace our past and acknowledge that the Sword Scholars once met Wayfarers with the blade. But now we see the commitment from Urizen in their assurance that "Sulemaine's enemies are not our enemies" (Judgement 47, Winter 389YE). They have not been complacent in their words and met our Grey Pilgrims with spiritual debate. Inspired by Sulemaine's example, we will test what we've learnt and continue inspiring excellence in each other. As such, we have come to bear witness to Urizen's decision and spread word of it through Highguard.
