Revision as of 18:02, 9 May 2023

The Civil Service shall serve The Throne and the people, and be bound in oaths of loyalty to the Empire. They will be civil in their dealings and treat each citizen by their virtues, without prejudice or favour regardless of wealth, nationality or title. They will choose amongst them those who will serve as magistrates, to ensure the law is a friend to no-one but instead the servant and the master of all.


From the Imperial Constitution

The Imperial Civil Service was founded in its current form in the reign of Emperor Giovanni.

Members of the Service are IC oath-bound, and the crew who play them are bound OOC, to the impartiality and neutrality that are the finest traditions of the Service.

As such, they do not vote in any elections, as that would undermine the reality that they are neutral supporters of the Empire.

Institutional Civil Servants

These civil servants are linked to specific Imperial Institutions to ensure their smooth operation.

Prognosticators Office

Prognosticators use a combination of divinatory magic and careful record keeping to provide infallible briefings to the Imperial Senate and the Imperial Military Council. In modern times, the civil service is careful to ensure they include members of every nation; the first Imperial prognosticators were all Urizen seers, though their ranks were quickly bolstered by volunteers, especially from the mystics of Wintermark and diviners from the Brass Coast. The office is ultimately overseen by the Imperial Auditor, Gerard La Salle, who is a member of the Constitutional Court. Their primary duties involve divining the conjunctions of the Sentinel Gate and using a combination of magic and mundane expertise to prepare appraisals for the Imperial Senate.
