The Inquisition of Axis
The Inquisition of Axis is an order of knights who sworn to uphold order and to purge chaos from the world. Demon worshippers, necromancers, philosophists, scientists and inventors are among those who have named been named as sowers of chaos by the Inquisition. The Inquisition will hunt and find these people by whatever means necessary.
Structure
The head of the Inquisition is known as the Lictor (If they are from Hellknight ranks) or the Vicarius (If they are Signifiers). The army is then presided over by the Master or mistress of Blades for the nonmagical solders and the Paravicar for the magical soldiers. The Paralictor and Maralictor are the officer ranks of the Inquisition. Hellknights and Signifiers are the rank and file soldiers of the order. Armigers are the lowest rank in the Inquisition and are not considered a full-fledged member until they pass the Test.
Public Agenda
The Inquisition promise to maintain order throughout the land by controlling and eliminating the enemies of order. They have claimed that demon worshippers and necromancers will be punished by death. Philosophers, scientists, and inventors who create heretical inventions, writings, and ideas will have them destroyed and kill them if necessary. For them, any means to stop the spread of chaos is acceptable including scrying and forced compulsion of dangerous individuals.
Tenets of Faith
-I will focus my iron scrutiny on any faith I find appealing. Whatever I worship must be worthy of me.
-I will take the tools from the grasp of those who would craft their own dooms, whether they would do so intentionally or unintentionally.
-I will seek the chaos that manifests in common words and thoughts.
-Lawlessness is a failing of the leaderless and unwatched. I will mind those who would go unnoticed.

Worship
The Inquisition mostly follows the gods of Axis but the primary emphasis is on gods of law. Among the most popular gods worshipped are Abadar, Asmodeus, Iomedae, and Achaekek.
Sects
There is a portion of the Inquisition made up of mostly followers of Abadar who have sworn oaths against savagery. This particular sect is mostly found within borders of The Northern Grassland Tribes hunting down wild tribes and protecting colonies and trade caravans.
When the tendrils of Chaos wrap around the mind, they infect the body.
