Change of Doctrine
Judgement 7
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Erasmo di Tassato
- Judgement: It has been hundreds of years since the Doctrine of Seven was codified. The Virtuous apply what they have learned; Wisdom knows all knowledge is incomplete. The core of our faith, the Seven Virtues, remain strong - we add context to better reflect what we now know. We update the Doctrine of Seven
- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (2039-358)
- Notes: This judgement amends the Doctrine of Seven. The full implications of this change to the Doctrines of the Faith will be felt over the coming months.
The Doctrine of Seven

Statement of Principle
Mandates
Judgement 3
- Assembly: Dawnish

Judgement 26
- Assembly: Highborn
- Raised By: Ada of Balthazar's Vineyard
- Judgement: The prosperity of our Varushkan kin is threatened by the harm done to the bees of Karov. With hard work, we can help them quell the fear that has overtaken their bees, and with the inspiration of Kvetmir Kvetmirovic renew trust between that symbol of Prosperity and the people of the vales. We send Ada of Balthazar's Vineyard with 50 doses of liao to spread auras of Prosperity, and to support the work of the vale of Zoloto to right what the Cold Sun has unbalanced.
- Outcome: Upheld (424-0)
- Enacted This mandate will help spread the inspiration of Kvetmir Kvetmirovic, and the expertise of the beekeepers of Zoloto. This will prevent the situation with bees in Varushka getting worse, and will slowly encourage bees to take residence in their hives again. It will take at least a year, and bee populations are unlikely to recover completely, but it will ensure there is no measurable impact on the prosperity of southern Varushka, and no lasting damage to the Prosperity of herb gardens, farms, forests, or businesses.
- Notes: The greater majority threshold for this judgement was 426
Judgement 32
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Skaldsgrym
- Judgement: The Virtuous build up their fellows, they do not tear them down. We send Erlend with a dose of true liao to consecrate the Virtuous shrine at the Meeting Place. Let us display our Loyalty through the unity of words and deeds.

- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (220-0)
- Enacted The penalty suffered by military units from nations other than Wintermark or Varushka when operating in the wastes will be reduced from a three-rank penalty to a one-rank penalty. This will apply whether they are scouting or exploring in Tsirku.

Judgement 54
- Assembly: Navarr
- Raised By: Teleri Thornweaver
- Judgement: The Virtuous raise up their fellows. Any nation willing to raise arms and join the Vallornguard shall have our full support. We send Teleri Thornweaver with 50 doses of liao to lead our people in sharing everything we have with the League to prepare to finish the fight.

- Raised By: Val
- Judgement: Life is short, let it never be dull! We send Val with 50 doses of liao to encourage the Freeborn to blaze new trails. Aim high and pursue your dreams, no matter the dangers.

Writ of Consecration
Judgement 5
- Assembly: Vigilance
- Raised By: Estella Lucati
- Judgement: At the Autumn Equinox 387YE, the League National Assembly recognised the Great Chain of Sarvos as an Inspirational Location for it had repelled repeated assaults by idolatrous pirates. I beseech the Assembly to grant a Writ of Consecration so that the Great Chains may be blessed by the True Liao that was provided by the Sun Chamber for this purpose. The Great Chain stands as a marvel of ingenuity and engineering whilst embodying the tenet of 'Prepare for Malice, Yet Thwart Malice Before It Strikes Against You'.
- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (396-0)
Judgement 79
- Assembly: Vigilance
- Raised By: Anatolij Paukov Zorkin
- Judgement: An edifice has been built in Broken Ride, in Sarvos, to honour the Sodality of the Silent bell, with half the white granite coming from the Virtue fund and half from Bryce the Hare. I call for a Writ of Consecration to Vigilance for this site
- Outcome: Not Upheld (354-0)
Judgement 116
- Assembly: Courage
- Raised By: Basil Goodbeard
- Judgement: True courage is selfless. Emperor Ahraz died to demand liberation for the orcs of the Empire, in the face of great opposition, risking his position and reputation to do what he knew was right. Our world was changed forever by that courageous act. His tomb should be a beacon to all those who fight for their convictions, Ashborn Osso among them. Her bones will join the guardians of this holy ground. We have the true liao: Ashborn Trosk will provide it. "Do not fear to act; only be shamed by inaction."
- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (312-0)
Judgement 125
- Assembly: Ambition
- Raised By: Eldrid 'Phoenix Flame' Vestardottir
- Judgement: The Empire is an amalgamation of our Ambitions. Each stronger as others take the burden. As Tian bore the flame, Umarth bore the consequence of decision. The Fist of the Mountains paid the price, now our Urizen must take the branches and carry the light. We call for a writ of consecration to build a flame that will burn on the docks of Elos. Let the mystics of Wintermark and the seers and illuminates of Urizen make pilgrimage. There they will reflect on the gift and burden of farsight, to show the Way to their people.
- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (332-0)
Writ of Excommunication
Judgement 33
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Kasmira Milankova Ygrev
- Judgement: To excommunicate is not a trivial act to be concealed, this assembly have made such clear. And so, in pursuit of employing every avenue to defeat the 'Earl of Groves', to resist the blight of its venom and risk all for their love of the Empire, I raise such a judgement against RHYDIAN DE RONDELL, Champion of Wisdom. I ask this assembly to cast them from this hearth in service of it. Don your cloak and take your fill of bread Rhydian, for this would be a parting. May the weight of this act measure against its worth
- Outcome: Withdrawn at the request of the raising priest (530-174)
Revocation
Proscription
Inquisition
Judgement 4
- Assembly: Navarr
- Raised By: Corey Wayfarer

- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (252-0)
Judgement 40
- Assembly: Pride
- Raised By: Bella Vicente d'Apulian
- Judgement: Pride is in deeds not words. Elagabala talks a lot of talk. Let's see if it holds up to scrutiny. 12pm. Saturday. Spring 388. Celestial Eclipse, League.
- Outcome: Upheld (10-0)
Judgement 61
- Assembly: Vigilance
- Raised By: Emmeline Weaver

Judgement 157
- Assembly: Marcher

- Outcome: Upheld (92-60)
Judgement 160
- Assembly: Vigilance
- Raised By: Kellin Embercast
- Judgement: I have walked with Gaelen Embercast for three years. Now, as they set aside their Cardinalship, I wish to ask them some difficult questions. I do so as a dedicant of Loyalty, preaching their sworn virtue, so my questions concern themselves with the intersection of Loyalty and Vigilance. When they have faced challenges that set these virtues at odds with each other, how have they acted? At the Summer Solstice, I invite Gaelen to join me to discuss this.
- Outcome: Upheld (108-0)
Judgement 173
- Assembly: Navarr
- Raised By: Iniska Ashwood

Sanction
Recognition
Judgement 93
- Assembly: Ambition
- Raised By: Amos
- Judgement: I call for Barabbas to be recognised as an exemplar of Ambition, embodying the tenet that "it is better by far to try and fail, than never to have tried at all". His legacy lives on in Freeborn corsairs, in Caricomare and in Segura. His benevolence lives on in the ports and cities he built, the trade routes he founded, and the maps drawn from his explorers. His miraculous final address, and the aura of ambition it bears two centuries on, is an inspiration to mariners, explorers and adventurers to the cenotaph, and to all those who seek to do what "cannot be done". Barabbas is an exemplar for all those who dare to dream.
- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (362-56)
Exaltation
Judgement 35
- Assembly: Pride
- Raised By: Halwyn Splitroot

- Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (192-22)
- Notes: Idwyn Splitroot has been added to the Roll of the Exalted
Judgement 70
- Assembly: Prosperity
- Raised By: Sybilla Cattaneo di Tassato

He generously offered to fund the appraisers for their first year bringing the potential for opportunities old and to become available to the Empire that would not have been possible before. We recognise Azeal for his hard work in raising the funds to ensure the opportunity was not wasted and in his generosity in spending his hard earned money in a way that will benefit so many over the coming year.
- Outcome: Not upheld (132-74)

Rewarding
Judgement 17
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Donato of the Crucible
- Judgement: The Empire is beset on all sides by enemies - our military is stretched. An opportunity presents to create a ritual text which would allow our armies to resupply under any circumstance. This text will save Imperial lives and give the Empire a new tool to fight our enemies. The Throne has thanked Herminius of the House of the Wanderer in her recent address for this support in building the third League army. We ask he is rewarded 40 thrones to complete codification faster and purchase resources for further prosperous work
- Outcome: Upheld, full amount (514-326)
Judgement 21
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Laurencio di Sarvos
- Judgement: Seventy-five citizens of the Empire sacrificed Personal Prosperity for Imperial Vigilance and the chance to capture Grendel spies. These efforts would have succeeded but for the acts of three Traitors within the Empire. Neverthless, Virtue should be Rewarded lest citizens be discouraged from future sacrifice when called upon. We Reward those citizens with 22 Thrones from the Virtue Fund to be share amongst them according to their sacrifice.
- Outcome: Upheld, full amount (843-336)
Judgement 30
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Athiel Westernborn of the Cenotaph
- Judgement: In Autumn 386YE (Judgement 4) the full force of the Synod showed their wish to bring spiritual enlightenment to the waylaid and the downtrodden of Asavea. We did so with the full understanding of the magnitude of this project, and with awareness of its costs. Priests, why have you let the fires of your Ambition dwindle to embers? Even the most impenetrable forest may fall one tree at a time. As such, we request 8 wains of white granite to be disbursed from the Virtue Fund to continue anchoring the Way in Asavea. Consequences are the price of Ambition. We are willing to pay the costs.
- Outcome: Upheld, full amount (652-334)
Judgement 36
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Lord Julien de Courtenay-Wyldrose
- Judgement: The High Exorcist and their house have spent in excess of 20 thrones to defend the Empire against spiritual threat. We seek to reward their personal prosperity and let them continue their work. Let 20 thrones be allocated to their seneschal, Mathilde Caster, for the purchase of: Silent Bell and Labyrinthine Vestments to be lent to any citizen in need; and liao bought in bulk
- Outcome: Upheld, full amount (600-276)
Judgement 37
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Hildelith Kaukosdottir
- Judgement: Countless times we have pronounced ourselves in favour of the free preaching of the Way in Asavea. It is time to make good on our promises. We reward the refugees of Ibaria with 50 thrones. They have shown boundless Courage and Ambition in the fight against the Asavean Plenum, and have built a new life in Virtue here in the Empire. They have given everything for Virtue. We should seek to repay them in kind.
- Outcome: Not upheld (398-502)
Judgement 42
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Miroslav Dainovitch Temnavoda
- Judgement: Last summit, Varushka had the opportunity to purge the insidious threat of face-peeling monsters. Rather than draw the Boyar's Hasta from its vital role elsewhere, heroes across Varushka committed military units to this task, many sacrificing their own resources to take up arms for the first time. Mana from across the nation was poured into enchantments to boost the strength of these units. This resulted in an assembled force equivalent to an army. Thanks to these efforts, the Boyar's Hasta remained committed to the vital role it played in Sarangrave, and the operation to root out the face peelers was an overwhelming success. I ask for Thirty Thrones from the Virtue Fund to be disbursed among those Ambitious citizens who stand as an example to all of what can be achieved with sufficient drive and focus.
- Outcome: Upheld, 28 thrones, 1 crown, and 11 rings rewarded (450-426)
Judgement 63
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Vera
- Judgement: Five years ago the first sermon on the Way in Ossium ended with the declaration 'together we rise in greatness'. I seek 20 thrones to reward the ossians who have reached the greatest heights since liberation: Volya, cardinal of the Way; Velko, senator for Ossium; Sigismund, general of the Golden Axe; Sławomir, leading diplomatic efforts in the Mallum
- Outcome: Not upheld (282-514)
Judgement 67
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Oleander Dreamsreach
- Judgement: We seek to reward Geraint Bronwyn's Rest with 8 wains of white granite to be put towards the City of Dreams. This is an investment into the future of the Navarr and will allow us to seek new ways to use liao.
- Outcome: Not upheld (333-414)
Judgement 104
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Galene Netherwatch
- Judgement: For the last 4 years, the Mountains' Answer, a block of military units 4000+ strong, have made themselves strategically avaialble to the Military Council to be deployed wherever is deemed necessary to the Empire. Let us reward this Loyalty with 20 thrones, to be given to Floria Sunshaper, to be shared amongst these captains
- Outcome: Upheld, but none remain (260-252)
Judgement 111
- Assembly: General
- Raised By: Marialena Von Holberg
- Judgement: As Senator of Holberg, Kaspar von Yakovitch has inspired great Virtue in our citizens from Pride as we were awarded the Greatest City, to Ambition in building the Great Walls. His Virtue extends to the wider Empire, sharing the Prosperity of the League by creating an Imperial position from a National Bourse seat. As a young citizen inspired by this Virtue. I ask, on behalf of Holberg, that he is rewarded with four wains of weirwood.
- Outcome: Upheld, full amount (300-208)
Special Considerations
The following considerations should be borne in mind when bringing judgements before the Imperial Synod during the Summer Solstice.
| Assembly | Consideration | Link | Duration |
| All Assemblies | Statements that prioritise the greater good over personal loyalties are less effective. | Eyes of Loyalty | Ongoing |
| All Assemblies | Statements that try to compel Loyalty will fail. | Eyes of Loyalty | Ongoing |
| All Assemblies | Revocations and Excommunications for disloyalty to the nation or Empire risk causing dissent. | Eyes of Loyalty | Ongoing |
| All Assemblies | Any mandate that does not pass with a greater majority will have limited or no effect on Urizen or Varushka.
