==The Nine Divine Orders==
===The Nine Facets===
The Archons that head the Orders.
===Boons===
Boons grant blessings on behalf of Beiatus and absolve the sins of Mortals in His name.
===Clarions===
Clarions give divine inspiration and worship Beiatus unceasingly.
===Diadems===
Diadems are wellsprings of the Virtues, consist mainly of the Paragons, and serve as consciences to Mortals.
===Scepters===
Scepters are punishers of the vilest wrongdoers and are warriors against Asmodeus's armies.
It is widely believed that Scepters, though few, are the warriors of Arcadia that fight on behalf of humanity against the forces that seek to harm it. Their appearances in the mortal world are rare, usually only when truly dire threats are apparent, and they are almost never seen by mortal eyes, even when actively at work. The Archons purposefully keep themselves scarce because it is all to easy for mortals to become too passive in their expectation of aid -- the divine generally prefer for humankind to be as self-reliant as possible.
===Sentinels===
Sentinels are protectors of the faithful, pilgrims, and all Holy Sites.
===Sigils===
Sigils are deliverers of Beiatus's word and mortal's prayers.
===Thrones===
Thrones preside over rites, rituals, and are the source of Beiatus's will on holy ground.
One of the most common archons present among mortals, Thrones are the invisible presence of Beiadis on all holy sites, including temples, cathedrals, and graveyards. It is believed that consecration of a holy site summons one to inhabit its designated place to become a permanent presence, its aura warding the encroachment of evil and actually manifesting should something threaten its site. Performance of any holy rites are also said to invoke the presence of a Throne to at least place its lasting blessing on such things as marriages and funerals. A Throne's presence is widely purported to be easily detectable as a strong feeling of comfort and safety.
===Writs===
Writs sanctify and preserve the Word and Its fundamental laws.
==The Nine Blessed Virtues==
===Compassion===
"Think always of the needs of others. Listen and give council. Love everyone and treat them as you wish to be treated." -- St. Emily
===Courage===
"Live unfettered by fear. Let no injustice be done through your inaction and stand for those who cannot stand for themselves." -- St. Eustace
===Diligence===
"Idle hands invite sin. Always be productive, always strive to better yourself. Never be a leech upon the efforts of others." -- St. George
===Generosity===
"Place yourself last in all things. Live only to give unto others. There is no suffering in the love of the meek and the poor." -- St. Jane
===Honesty===
"Be forthright in all that you do. Accept all consequences of your actions and reveal deceptions that harm the innocent." -- St. Benjamin
