Warzone The Brotherhood History: One might say that the
formation of the Brotherhood rewrote the course of history. The
Brotherhood was formed in 2275 A.D. by the first Cardinal, Nathaniel
Durand, following the end of the First Corporate Wars. Its foundation
drew all the corporations together in unity. A new calendar was
begun in the year of the Cardinal's inauguration and dates were
henceforth written as Y.C. -In the Year of the Cardinal.
The power of the Brotherhood quickly grew as
thousands flocked to the rallying cry of the Cardinal Durand I
but it was to be another fifty years before the position of the
Brotherhood, as supreme power in the solar system, was irrevocably
established. For in the year 51. Y.C. the Dark Legion fell upon
mankind. There is no question that it was the presence of the
Brotherhood that saved mankind in that terrible time. Without
their guidance and spiritual fortitude mankind would not have
been able to resist the dreadful fear and corrupting despair that
are the Dark Legion's most effective weapons.
It was also the Brotherhood, led by Cardinal
Durand I himself, that led the combined forces of humanity to
their victory against the Dark Legion during the Venusian Crusade.
Since those glorious and tragic times the power and influence
of the Brotherhood has grown to include far more than just the
spiritual well being of humanity. They are now a vast worldly
power, almost a Megacorporation in their own right. They certainly
have the resources to qualify but their prime directive remains
spiritual and not commercial and thus they are set apart from
the other corporations.
The Brotherhood was weakened somewhat by the
divergence of Mishima some three centuries ago and more recently
by the open defiance of Cybertronic. Now, in the bloody turmoil
of the Second Corporate Wars, their diplomatic skills are stretched
to the limit. But with the reemergence of the Dark Legion their
star is rising once again. Because, with all other things aside,
when it comes to combating the evil of the Dark Legion, The Brotherhood
remains humanity's best and only hope for victory and survival
before the power of the Dark Soul.
The Brotherhood Military: From
the earliest days of the Brotherhood they have established themselves
as a martial force and not simply a clerical order guiding humanity
with words of wisdom and peace. The times are too dark, the enemy
too prone to slaughter for such a charitable expression of faith.
Did not the Cardinal himself lead an army of thousand against
the Apostle of War and did he not smite down and cleave into bloody
ruin many a hell-spawned demon sent against him. He did; and as
in all things, the Brotherhood follows what Cardinal Durand I
taught them.
The military wing of the Brotherhood, which
forms the larger part of the Inquisition, is growing all the time.
From the moment they joined the Brotherhood they considered themselves
part of a holy war and as such they are highly motivated. The
Brotherhood military is very varied and a good pool of standard
troops augmented by special assignment warriors, many of whom
possess the mysterious power of the Art.
Troopers that excel themselves in battle can
be raised into the ranks of the Sacred Warriors. Presented with
the symbolic Avenger Swords, these ceremonial warriors are employed
as Cathedral guards and also used extensively against the Dark
Legion due to their enhanced resistance to the influence of the
Dark Symmetry.
Serving the Cardinal and members of the Curia
as elite personal guards are the Fury, while performing the more
specialized tasks of the Brotherhood's mission are such units
as the much feared Inquisitors and the Mortificators who are only
spoken about in whispers. It is the task of the Inquisitors to
seek out and hunt down those individuals that have shown themselves
to be Heretics. People who by thought or action, have conspired
with the Dark Legion or by deed or design, invited the corruption
of the Dark Symmetry into the world of man.
The Mortificators are assassins. Trained in
the secret ways of death they are the Cardinal's surgical blade,
infiltrating a healthy body to cut out malignancy before it has
a chance to spread.
Then there are the Mystics and the Keepers of
the Art, warriors who wield the power of faith as surely as any
weapon. From the manipulation of matter, to the influencing of
minds these students of the Brotherhood's deepest secrets are
feared and respected by all and their powers are a great asset
in the continuing fight against the Dark Legion.
