Archived-The Inquisition (Requiem)
In Development / Place Holder
Overview
Taking their cue from the Catholic Church’s response to heresy in its ranks, the Sanctified created their own inquisition dedicated to rooting out and destroying any threats to their spiritual survival. Early Inquisitors were rarely appointed, taking canon law into their own righteous hands in order to protect the covenant. In some cases this created hysteria and some of these self-made Inquisitors had to be destroyed, so far did they go in seeking heretics.
This overkill led to the practice continued tonight, where it was the sole privilege of the Bishop to name Inquisitors and bestow upon them the authority to carry out their necessary investigations.
The Congregation for the Purity of Doctrine
Whilst the concept of the Inquisition within the Lancea Sanctum can be traced back to the Icarian Heresy which started in 1388 and continued right until 1724, early Inquisitors operated without rules, training, mentors and ultimately guidance.
Patron Saint
St Radczik - Gangrel Inquisitor and Author of "Lies of the Damned".
Membership
Declared Inquisitors of Australia
"An Inquisitor is usually appointed by a Bishop. Inquisitors have the ability to manipulate Status within their Domain once each month. Generally speaking, members of the Sanctified tend to feel lucky if an Inquisitor only manipulates their Status, given their usually wide ranging powers to investigate heresy."
The following individuals are currently serving the Lancea Sanctum as Inquisitors. Those that have approached the Congregation and have been endorsed as a true and faithful defender of the faith by the Congregation are marked as Ordinaries of the Congregation.
