The Inquisition is an organization in the Imperium of Man that serves as a secret police force designed to maintain stability in the Imperium.
Orginization
The Inquisition has three main divisions:
- The Ordo Malleus (Daemonhunters) are tasked with the elimination of daemonic threats, often assisted by the Grey Knights chapter of the Space Marines.
- The Ordo Hereticus (Witch Hunters) deal with threats of Chaos corruption, heresy, and insurgency from within the Imperium's population; they are closely linked to the Ecclesiarchy and, by extension, the Adepta Sororitas.
- The Ordo Xenos (Alien Hunters) are tasked with removing extraterrestrial threats from Imperial society.
Inquisitors have the authority to utilize any resources available to the Imperium to perform their tasks. Such resources include the Imperial Guard, Imperial Space Marines, Adeptus Arbites, and the various temples of the Officio Assassinorum.
