Assembly: General
Raised By: Jared of the Sentinel's Tower
Judgement: We Recognise Ravadi Founder's Dance as an exemplar of Vigilance. Pilgrimage - They left Dawn to join the Founder's Dance Striding in Navarr, and walked the original path of the Exemplars Navarr and Thorn when the Trods were first created, guarding the world against the Vallorn threat with every step. Legacy - As Champion of Vigilance they were a driving force to forge mere titles into a cohesive organisation worthy to Inspire the Empire, several other Champions have pointed to this as Ravadi's Legacy. Benevolence - In sacrificing their dreams for a year to hunt down Bawn-Watch the Champion's Shield they would never hold, on behalf of every Champion that would follow after. Inspiration - Their Inspirational Vigilance was recognised by the Assembly in their appointment to Champion, and many priests of Vigilance will attest to this and their work that followed, seek us out.

Outcome:

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

Assembly	Consideration	Link	Duration
All Assemblies	Statements that prioritise the greater good over personal loyalties are less effective.	Eyes of Loyalty	Ongoing
All Assemblies	Statements that try to compel Loyalty will fail.	Eyes of Loyalty	Ongoing
All Assemblies	Revocations and Excommunications for disloyalty to the nation or Empire risk causing dissent.	Eyes of Loyalty	Ongoing
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.	Urizen Link Varushka Link	Ongoing
All Assemblies	Statements that stress the need to follow Imperial law rather than virtue will be unlikely to lead to a mandate.	Knocking on every door	Ongoing
League Assembly	No statement of principle raised by the League Assembly that calls on citizens to support a different cause will have an effect.	The war of thorns and flowers	Until Spring 388YE
Varushkan Assembly	No statement of principle raised by the Varushkan Assembly that calls on citizens to support a different cause will have an effect.	The war of thorns and flowers	Until Spring 388YE
