The Inquisitors are the rarest and least-used Infernals. They were created more in preparation for the Yozi-ruled Creation that will be, but they have found work to do. The Inquisitors are the gardeners of the Yozi faith. They seek out heresy, corruption, and weakness. And they purge it. Violently and thoroughly. Largely solitary, the Inquisitors have the final say on what is kosher and what is not. They have deeply personal and individual (and largely accurate) views on Yozi theology and a mandate form their gods to enforce them in blood and fire. They are the secret police of the cults, and will not tolerate weakness in the faithful or suffer to live those who twist the faith to their own ends. They come and go like shadows, and seek no glory. They are the Inquisitors.

They are surgeons of the mind, sent out into the world to seep into it like slow poison and turn it against itself. Their guile and cunning are nearly peerless, as is their ruthlessness and their brutality. They destroy from within, and sabotage is instinct to them. They also police the forces of those loyal to the Yozis, ensuring that weak souls are revealed and that treachery is the furthest thought from the minds of the faithful. As they are a slow poison that sickens the world, so are they a burning medicine for the weakness of the followers of the Yozis.

The Draconian Caste

The Draconian Caste, those Infernals whose shards were overhauled and tended by the Ebon Dragon and his servants, are creatures of darkness and shadow, existing to execute those tasks that require stealth and subtlety. They are surgeons of the mind, sent out into the world to seep into it like slow poison and turn it against itself. Their guile and cunning are nearly peerless, as is their ruthlessness and their brutality. They destroy from within, and sabotage is instinct to them. They also police the forces of those loyal to the Yozis, ensuring that weak souls are revealed and that treachery is the furthest thought from the minds of the faithful. As they are a slow poison that sickens the world, so are they a burning medicine for the weakness of the followers of the Yozis.
