Church of Kamon

The Church of Kamon is a monotheistic religion based around the worship of Father Kamon. The Church of Kamon is centered in the Free City of Alion, also known as the Holy City.

Organization
The Church of Kamon is headed by His Holiness the Pope, the chief pastor of the entire religion. The organization of the church is divided into multiple sub-factions.

The Papal Guard
The Papal Guard is stationed in the Holy City of Alion and serves as the valiant defenders of the central clergy and His Holiness the Pope.

The Father's Army
The Father's Army is a large organization of paladins and squires that serves as the main military force of the Church of Kamon. The Father's Army is officially charged with the task of ensuring the compliance of other countries with the church's scriptures.

The Hallowed Inquisition
The Hallowed Inquisition is the elite military unit responsible for investigating heresy abroad and executing those it deems guilty of heresy. The influence of the Hallowed Inquisition is far-reaching, with elusive agents deployed in nearly every country in the world of Providence.

While the Father's Army takes on a more direct and open approach to enforcing doctrine, the inquisition operates primarily in the shadows and does not shy from using covert means including assassinations, espionage, and sabotage in order to accomplish its objectives.

The Congregation for the Arcane Arts
The Congregation for the Arcane Arts is responsible for investigating and retrieving ancient relics and maintaining the Index of Forbidden Arts, an archive of magical arts deemed contrary to the church's beliefs or are too dangerous to be used by mankind.

The Congregation for Divine Worship
The Congregation for Divine Worship is responsible for preaching the word of Father Kamon and instilling faith across the world. Most priests, nuns, and missionaries belong to this sub-organization of the church.

The Congregation for the Apocrypha
The Congregation for Apocrypha is the secret congregation of the church responsible for hiding the truth of the Chaotic Mandates and the Outside from the general populace. The Apocrypha is a compilation of writings and information gathered by sanctioned researchers and investigators regarding that which lies beyond the realms of Azuria.
