Overview

The Imperial Conclave has the ability to declare amity or enmity towards an eternal.

Amity or Enmity towards an eternal is considered to apply to all that eternal's heralds. The Conclave may also occasionally extend amity or enmity towards a specific herald without changing the designation of other heralds or the patron eternal.

Amity

An eternal (and associated heralds) under Declaration of Amity gains the following rights:

  • They receive protection under Imperial Law
  • They can attend conclave meetings
  • They may be nominated to speak before the conclave, although they cannot vote.
  • They can place an Address or Declaration onto the conclave agenda under the normal rules as if they were Imperial citizens (the civil service does not accept realm-specific mana as payment).
  • They can make bequests to the vault of a specific order or to the Conclave as a whole.

The declaration also has a magical effect. Eternals and their heralds find it easier to manifest in the Hall of Worlds and to move into Anvil.

As of 376YE, no eternals were in a position of amity following the disastrous intervention of Emperor Walter.

Enmity

An eternal (and associated heralds) under Declaration of Enmity suffers the following penalties:

The declaration also has magical effects. Eternals find it much harder to enter the Hall of Worlds. Heralds cannot use the portal in the Hall of Worlds to travel to Anvil without ritual assistance from an Imperial citizen.

As of 376YE, the Wendigo, a Winter eternal that promotes unspeakable acts and cannibalistic feasts was the only Eternal with enmity. He was made subject to this declaration in the 306 YE Winter Solstice session of the Conclave following exposure of his involvement in no less than three cannibalistic cults dedicated to blasphemy, idolatry and heresy.

Eternals with Amity and Enmity

The Conclave has declared the following Eternals and Heralds under Amity or Enmity at this time:

Eternal or Herald Status Name of Declarer
Sadogua Amity ?
Baslieus & Thelonius Kade Amity Maurice, Archmage of Autumn
Ylenrith Amity Darius of the Spire of the Auric Horizon
Meraud Amity Corvus, Archmage of Summer
Cathan Canae Amity Corvus, Archmage of Summer
Barien Amity Corvus, Archmage of Summer
Uk'ta the Messenger, Herald of Lashonar Amity Pavel, Archmage of Night
Baxshula, Herald of (Yaw'nagrah?) Amity Rosamund Holt
Ylitha-Rose & Stormcrow Vora, Spring Children Amity Iulian, Archmage of Spring
Wendigo Enmity ?
Arhallogen Enmity Yasen

Please note that the above table may well be missing some entries and needs to be updated. it is believed correct as of the start of the Summer Solstice 378YE.

Notes

The Spring eternal Arhallogen was given enmity of the Conclave during the Winter Solstice 378YE. This means that performing the ritual Fire in the Blood is illegal, and will be investigated by the magistrates as treason.
