Collegiate Extremis

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

The Collegiate Extremis is a powerful Adeptus Mechanicus organisation that ensures Forge Worlds obey[1a] the laws of the Lore Mechanicus.[1b] Members of the Lords Dragon can offer roles in the Collegiate Extremis to those they see as suited for such a dangerous vocation.[1d] They ruthlessly investigate and pursue those suspected of tech heresy.[1c]

Overview

In function, they are similar to the Adeptus Arbites who enforce the Lex Imperialis.[1a] However, their duties cross over more into the realm of the Mechanicus's day-to-day, than the Arbites are in the Imperium's. This leads the Collegiate more likely to be involved in criminal investigations that the Arbites would consider to be beneath their notice. The Collegiate's higher ranks are concerned with great crimes against the Lore, while the lower ranked Procurators are assigned to a single world. This also includes Imperial worlds which only contain Mechanicus enclaves.[1c] In such instances, these Procurators could also serve as liaisons between the Mechanicus's Astynomia Enforcers and non-Mechanicus organisations.[1a] The Collegiate Extremis's duties can lead to conflict with the Astynomia, though, and there are long-standing suspicions between the two organisations.[1c] However, the Collegiate does recruit members of the Astynomia, who have excelled within its ranks.[1d]
