The Mercykillers (PWH)

__TOC__
"Justice. It's what separates us from the dogs in the streets. As intelligent beings, we can see what's right and wrong. And we can avenge wrongful acts, making things right again. Sometimes enforcing the law maintains justice. Sometimes, to achieve true justice, a body must go beyond the laws of mortals. Justice is the higher law—the True Law. 
"The Mercykillers are the tools of justice. We don't make laws. We don't interpret laws. We simply mete out justice to those who break the laws. It's a huge responsibility, but our vision of justice is the clearest, so it's our duty. And if we ourselves must break other, lesser laws in pursuit of the True Law, so be it. 
"We find it useful to work with the Harmonium and the Fraternity of Order. Their sense of law—and its timely enforcement—is admirable. But they occasionally they lose focus of the True Law. And that's where we come in. We maintain the Prison in Sigil, where cross-trading swine are held and punished. When necessary, we execute the guilty, either within the Prison's walls or in a public spectacle at Petitioner's Square. 
"Some call us the Red Death, thinking that we revel in the last gasps of berks dangling from the leafless tree. But we don't. We revel in the sweet justice of a criminal getting his due. We revel in the avenging of wrongs. We revel in making sure that no one gives justice the laugh, that no one escapes his deserved rewards. 
"Many hear the call of justice. They come to the Prison and ask to join our ranks, prepared for a grueling battery of tests. But we have none. We present only the cold, hard facts about the True Law and the unswerving dedication to it expected of all Mercykillers. Those who listen to our words and still wish to join us may do so. It's that simple—and that hard. 
"Members who prove themselves worthy may one day join the faction's elite, hand-picked by Facto! Nilesia herself. These bloods—called Justiciars—track their quarry to the darkest pits and farthest peaks of the multiverse. They devote their lives to chasing down heinous criminals that slip through the fingers of the law. 
: "Because law isn't perfect. Justice is."
: - Relin Jasison, Justiciar candidate
