History
The recorded history of this organization exists only in the form of refuted sources, which started popping up all over the world following the last days of the Inquisition in 1835.
Headquarters
Angel's Rest is a celestial pocket plane situated at least 100 ft above the top of the Eiffel Tower. The elevator has an enchantment to reach it but it can only be accessed with the use of insignia rings given to the six regional leaders.

Improvement in rank can happen in one of four ways:
1. Retirement or death of your superior officers
2. An extraordinary miracle or other display from God that is recognized by the general membership
3. Majority vote of the 6 Regional Head Knights
4. When a member is being kicked out for breaking one of the key rules, or not meeting expectations during their evaluation period.
- European Apprentice: Open position
- Asian Apprentice: Open position
- African Apprentice: Open position
- American Apprentice : Open position
The two regions at the highest threat level get the first two slots for apprentice selection, the lowest threat level automatically receives one slot, and the final slot is given to a remaining region, which is randomly selected. Apprenticeships are completed w/ the nearest regional leader when they are recruited. After the apprenticeship is completed they must wait for a slot in the active membership before they can be truly inducted. When they are inducted, they will be sent to the lowest threat region as found in the yearly evaluations, regardless of the region they trained in. In this low threat region the recruits are put through their final test, as the leadership truly evaluates their first hand skill on the battlefield
Regional Threat Evaluation: All members are required to chronicle their demon killings so the brotherhood can assess threat levels for each year and make changes as necessary.
Creed of the Brotherhood
The Creed of the Brotherhood is spoken at the induction ceremony by every new active member and thereafter binds them to the following rules:
- 1. Thou shall not kill in the line of mortal sight upon punishment of expulsion
- 2. Thou shall report your sponsored member in the Sisterhood of the Sacred Salvation to the Council of Sisters should she break their Code or report any signs of truly awakening. Punishment for disobedience is suspension from duty for a period TBD by the Creed Council.
- 3. Thou shall report to the Creed Council when any of your brothers breaks the Creed. Punishment for disobedience is expulsion.
- 4. Thou shall carry out bounties handed to you by your superior upon punishment of immediate suspension for a period TBD by the Creed Council.
- 5. Thou shall kill all evil beings. Punishment TBD by the Creed Council based on severity of damage or potential damage caused by inaction, cognizance of inaction, amount of inherent evil in subject, and any level of aid given to the mortal or outsider in question.
- 6. Thou shalt not kill thy brother upon punishment of execution.
Any member witnessing a break in the Creed is responsible to bring the accused before the Creed Council, the Judiciary body of the Brotherhood, which consists of the 6 Knights who hold regional titles. Any sentence may be stalled for further consideration in the future by a vote of at least 3 out of 6. Any sentence may be reduced by a vote of at least 4 out of 6. To be completely absolved of wrongdoing it must be a unanimous vote. Votes on anything else need simple majority. Any broken rule left on the record of a member is a heavy weight on advancement and may allow for consideration of those beneath you when slots become available.
