Church of the Holy Witchspace Guard


Overview

The Church of the Holy Witchspace Guard (HWG) is a dictatorial Theocracy which controls several systems all over the sectors. Their members act as religious, political and military leaders. While providing a certain life standard to the population there is still enough agriculture to not rely on imports of food. Therefore these worlds are usually classified as "mainly industrial". In many systems church centers could be found, they not only offer spiritual support but different levels of education as well. Furthermore, quite a number of local influential organizations and persons employ members of the church as tutors and advisers. Therefore the church is well respected in most systems, the exception is communists who basically hate (and fear) them for their influence.


Organization

The spiritual and administrative center of every system the church controls is a High Temple. Its the destination of many pilgrims from the neighbor area who come there to meditate and receive their blessing.

The military order of the church (HWG defense order) serves as Navy and, in cooperation with GalCop, as police as well. They are known to have experienced pilots. While never proven there are rumors that their officers, either because of advanced technology or because of mutations, got a special connection with the witchspace. More than once an enemy attacking one of their ships disappeared in a suddenly opening wormhole. Too many reliable sources reported the same events to be just a coincidence. However, for now, there are only stories at late hours in a Seedy Space Bar
