NeoTheology Inquisitor

Description:

A high ranking member of the clergy and Deus Ex Machina placed on board in order to monitor the flock of the Preacher and keep the faith sacred. Their duty is to ensure that the church and the members of it remain pure, and to cleanse any corruption that springs up, subtly.

Guide:

As an Inquisitor, your job is to wipe out antagonists within NT and those that threaten them, in a subtle way. Starting crusades or taking part in them should be a last resort, if done at all. One of your main priorities is to keep the reputation of the Church pristine, and this is done better from behind the scenes. Revealing yourself to command is most likely a bad idea, though if done strategically, could be beneficial to your cause.

As an Inquisitor, you have an expanded list of Inquisitor litanies, as well as all the Preacher litanies and an upgraded Cruciform with 100 power in it. This means that not only can you perform the duties of the preacher, but you also have extra tools to help you carry out your holy work.

Reading the Preacher's page may be helpful to you, and it is advised that you read up on church lore in general if you roll Inquisitor.

Inquisitor litanies

Name	Description	Text
Convalescence	A decent heal which soothes burns, bruises and restores oxygen, while dampening pain.	Dominus autem dirigat corda vestra in caritate Dei et patientia Christi
Succour	Has the same effect as Convalescence on the faithful. Must touch the target disciple.	Venite ad me, omnes qui laboratis, et onerati estis et ego reficiam vo
Scrying	Allows you to see through the eyes of the faithful for 30 seconds.	Ecce ego ad te et ad caelum. Scio omnes absconditis tuis. Vos can abscondere, tu es coram me: nudus.
Sending	Send a message to one of the faithful.	Audit, me audit vocationem. Ego nuntius vobis.
Initiation	Completes the upgrade of a Disciple's cruciform into that of a Preacher's. Requires a Preacher Ascension Kit (from your uplink) to have been used on a normal member's cruciform beforehand.	Habe fiduciam in Domino ex toto corde tuo et ne innitaris prudentiae tuae, in omnibus viis tuis cogita illum et ipse diriget gressus tuos
Knowledge	Tells you how many telecrystals you currently have.	Cor sapientis quaerit doctrinam, et os stultorum pascetur inperitia
Penance	Inflicts a massive amount of pain on a cruciform bearer.	Mihi vindicta [Victim]
Bounty	Allows you to access a special uplink with a number of NT tools and guns that are reduced in price.	Supra Domini, bona de te peto. Audi me, et libera vocationem ad me munera tua

Tips

• Like the preacher, litanies can be used without the as they can be just spoken.
• You can choose to not get your hands dirty and instead covertly manipulate the church into doing your bidding through use of Scrying and Sending litanies. Note though, while followers are not forced to follow your orders, you can enforce their obedience through use of the penance litany. This allows you to not reveal yourself, or to reveal yourself in a safe way. Preachers would be well advised to follow your orders, lest you take their power from them. They are your only real subordinates other than those below you ship-wise.
• Remember that you can perform all the duties of the Preacher, and more. You can even remove the current preacher from power and replace them, or upgrade all disciples into preachers to share out the workload.
• Interacting with the church is advised. You can draw a lot of power from followers, and improve the church's efficiency vastly.
• Although you have the tools to do so, you should not go out all-guns blazing and burn the ship down. You are a guardian of the church, and the church should be your focus. Don't get your head lost in the power.
• It is very useful to whisper your litanies, particularly ones that you shouldn't have access to, such as your preacher litanies and your inquisitor litanies.
• Don't be afraid to punish NT followers who step out of line or threaten to bring trouble to the church, this is literally your job. Your focus is on the internal, not the external.
• Two uses of penance will put a follower into pain crit. You can copy-paste their name to rapidly do this, though it is advised that you don't abuse this too much. The same goes for any other litany, including Deprivation, which allows you to rip the cruciform out of any follower. Don't abuse this either, or you might get a talking to.
