[QUOTE="Ralts Bloodthorne, post: 2156180, member: 6390"] The Inquisitors, while being led by Lady Tatianna Pendragon, were trained by Antiox, who was ordered to apply the lash as he felt necessary. Of the five hundred Church Soldiers that the church of Xom sent, less then 200 survived Antiox's combat training. Inquisitors are trained in urban, tunnel and squad tactics, excell at identifying and eliminating magic users who face them, and are profiencent in hand to hand fighting, unarmed or armed, in some of the most difficult urban terrians imaginable. The graduation exercize, wiping out a sizeable nest of assassin's located in the tunnels beneath the docks, killed over a quarter of the 250 that were left, but over two thousand assassins, thier retainers, thier supporters, and those they sheltered were tracked and killed in a four day running battle through the twisting tunnels beneath the city. Lady Tatianna and Antiox do not get along too well, the half-orc willing to be publically brutal, and believing that dead enemies are less dangerous than ones who have been granted mercy through bribing Lord Judges. Antiox views Tatianna as dangerous weak, too easily influenced, and blind to the real evil of the world. Lady Tatianna believes the half-orc to be racially typically paraniod, seeing darkness and shadow where there is none. Sadly, it is Antiox who is correctly estimating the threats arrayed against the city itself. Antiox understands what drives the under-class in thier dissatisfaction against the nobility, he understands that the greater and greater laws and restrictions placed on the underclass just make them that more eager to throw off the yoke. While the Inquisitors are a force to be reckoned with, a force to be feared, the summary execution of lord Benditoni and his heirs for smuggling [i]black dust[/i] into the city and trading in underage sex-slaves has caused the nobility to realize that in having Antiox train the Inquisitors, they may have delivered them out of thier own control. Lady Tatianna oversaw the summary impalement of Lord Benditoni, her faith that the ruling class knew what was best and were destined to rule through divine birthright seriously shaken. Members of the Inquisitors fall in the following class arrangements: Heavy Infantry: Fighter/Psychic Warrior Light Infantry: Psychic Warrior/Ranger Scout: [psion/mage]/rogue Light Support: [psion/mage]/rogue Combat Support: [psion/mage]/fighter There is also a heavy mix of Paladin/Mage, Cleric/Psion, Paladin/Psion, Cleric Mage in the ranks of the Inquisitor. Inquisitors gain the following as Class Skills: Gather Information, Sense Motive, Knowledge (Tactics) --(Taken from d20 Modern) Prerequisites are as follows: Faithful member of the church of Xom in good standing, combat veteran, must have passed Antiox's training course. Typical character level is 10-15. Stat block of 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 10 with 5 points to spend within is standard. All Inquisitors are garbed alike, with no rank insignia's. Only the holy symbol of Xom displayed on the right breast and right shoulder of the armor. Even spellcaster wear the armor, putting up with the penalty to spellcasting. Chainmail Shirt +2 of Freedom Short Sword +2, Bane Evil, variable substance Medium Steel Shield +3 [i]Battle Helmet[/i]: These helmets allow any who wear these to speak to one another at distances up to 500 feet. They also provide darkvision 30' or add 30' onto current darkvision. The helmet's communication cannot be blocked by anything but lead totalling a greater thickness than 12" or a dispel magic zone. Light Crossbow +2 with 20 bolts +2 Cloak and boots of the Elvenkind Bandoleer with 4 potions of cure moderate wounds, 2 potions of invisibility, 2 potions of barkskin. Rings are left to the Inquisitor's discretion, but are often used to bump up magical or psionic power. The Inquisitors have become a force to be feared, and even nobles in the capitol are beginning to search thier souls for heresy or sin that might deliver them into the hands of the Inquisitors.
