Sector Synod

At the top of the Ministorum’s hierarchy within the Calixis Sector are the Cardinals of the Sector Synod. Led by Arch-Cardinal Ignato from the Cathedral of Illumination on
Scintilla, the Sector Synod is more an idea or principle than
a rigid structure or chain of command. In theory the Sector
Synod is made up of a Cardinal from each of the Calixian Arch-Dioceses and can therefore implement policy or Ministorum
edicts across the entire Calixis Sector under the careful eye
of Arch-Cardinal Ignato. In practice, the true power of the
Ministorum rests more in the hands of the individual Diocesan
Synods, often known by the world (or location on that world)
where the Cardinal resides. A good example of this is that
though Ignato is the head of the Sector Synod, and in theory
commands (or at least has substantial influence over) each of
the Arch-Dioceses, he actually holds more power as the head
of the Tarsine Synod with its wealth and its favored position
in the ranks of the Calixian Ministorum.
==Sector Synod Cardinals==
The Sector Synod is the highest circle of Ecclesiarchy power
within the Calixis Sector, and though its members rarely meet
face to face, their combined decisions and actions echo across the
sub-sector and can determine the lives of countless millions. Each
Cardinal of the Sector Synod is a powerful individual in his or
her own right, having risen to their lofty position through years
of sacrifice, devotion to the God-Emperor, and most importantly,
cunning and relentless politicking. Most have also held their
office for decades if not centuries and it is often said that Synod
Cardinals only die when the God-Emperor himself gives them
his personal permission (which is to say rarely). Finally each
Cardinal has his own diocese on the world on which he resides,
more commonly referred to as his seat of power. This is the center
of the Cardinal’s authority and his base of operations within his
Arch-Diocese, from which he rarely if ever leaves.
