The Nyxian Guildpact
The God Bound Contract of the Ten Guilds
“I’d rather see the guilds contend together with words in the halls of power, than in the streets with swords."—Jace BelerenThe Guildpact is an ancient and epic piece of magic that reverberates across the Nyxian Galaxy. Originally conceived of by The Nyxian Gods, it serves as a basis for all Nyxian law, setting statutes and ordinances for each guild so that each of the ten guilds has its own place. Its magic is enforced especially in the most significant representatives of the guilds, such as the League of Wojek. For instance, when a Wojek officer wishes to imprison someone who has directly violated a Guildpact law, it is possible to restrain them utterly. Not even Guild Masters are capable of breaking such a seal.
Purpose
The Guildpact itself is focused upon an ancient, primeval living document signed with blood and magic by each of the founding guild masters to represent their willingness to work together to hold the Galaxy together. Of course, not surprisingly, the leaders since then — including the still-living guild masters — have worked hard to find loopholes in which to set forward their own plans.
Document Structure
Clauses
While the laws of the Guildpact are metaphysical binding forces across the whole galaxy, there exists one space that exempt from it. The inner sanctum of the Obzedat is a dead spot within the law, allowing the Obzedat to even countermand guildpact laws with their own edicts.
Caveats
The Pact becomes null and void if the House of Dimir is revealed to be real to the Nyxian Populace. Only the original signers and the Nyxian Gods know of this.
