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".
While never proven it is said that their members, 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 told the same story to be just a coincidence.
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.
