Imperial Ordinators to Form

Just a day after Light's Reach let slip the rumor of the possibility of the Halls of Healing splitting from the Imperial Tribunal, it would seem that the light of truth has finally shone forth across the Empire.

The news from Light's Reach is that a sub-branch of the Imperial Tribunal - named the Imperial Ordinator(s) - is to be formed to serve a two-fold purpose.

The first is that Knights-Hospitaller, based primarily at the Halls of Healing, will form to provide healing services to the Imperial Watch and other Imperial Factions, though will also offer such practices to the Nobility and Citizens alike as time passes on and other field stations are established.

The second is that Knights-Templar will be assembled to take control of the numerous abandoned Temples, Chapels, and Shrines that were left unattended across the Empire when the Church of True Light fractured. It is assumed that Prince Serath Kahar will permit the use of Dawnstar Keep and the Temple of the White Dragon for this purpose.

One of the provisional ideas at the moment is that healers and apothecaries may be permitted to acquire a license from the Imperial Office of Census and Excise to become an affiliated agent of the Imperial Ordinators in order to make use of the resources and provisions that they are expected to provide.

Equally, preachers and chaplains will also be able to get a similar license which will permit them to tend to the various spiritual locations across the Empire as an equally affiliated Priest of the Imperial Ordinators.

Though the concept is still being finalized, it is expected that the officially enlisted officers of the Imperial Ordinators will get their own distinctive uniform: The Knights-Hospitaller recieving White-Steel Half-Plate emblazoned with a crimson version of the Ivory Steelword of the Imperial Watch, and the Knights-Templar recieving Black-Steel Half-Plate emblazoned with the original white version of the Steelwood insignia.
