Inferni Covenant

The Inferni Covenant are a rogue splinter faction of the Arturi Covenant, having broken away from their brethren several years before the Great War. Made up of Arturi-class Synthoids made originally by the Arlions, Inferni differ mostly in their ideology and overall design. The Inferni uploaded their bodies into more combat-oriented platforms, in conforming to their more militant dogma, and focused their efforts into amassing military power in order to invade Arli and seize the "Source", the prophesied Synthoid key to a higher state of existence. The Inferni Covenant was a member of the Coalition and fought largely in Arlion territory in order to secure their own interests before that of their allies, though their campaign helped to cut the Arlions off from the rest of the Alliance. Following the war and the destruction of the Crimson Queen, the Inferni have retreated to the Trillian Veil within the Reach and contest often with their neighbors to hold what little territory that remains.
== Background ==
Within the Arturi Covenant, several of the Unimatrixes began to question the Prophecy of One that foretold of the Arturi's ascension to godhood through the use of a fabled keystone code known as the Source. Concluding that the Source was likely housed on Arli, guarded by their creators, these deviant Arturi ventured off into an exodus to form a large enough military presence to invade Arli and seize the Source themselves. These Arturi dubbed themselves the Inferni and while the original Covenant did not bless their journey with approval, preferring not to wage war against the organics, they did not halt their brethren's march to war.
== History ==
== Culture ==
Inferni are a synthoid collection of A.I. interfaces combined into personality matrixes or much larger Unimatrixes. A single one of these Inferni A.I. interfaces can process information ten times faster than that of a human, making each Inferni matrix extremely intelligent compared to an organic. This leads them to have a significant superiority complex over organics, seeing the latter as no better than animals. Inferni communicate through neural links with one another and use built in vocorders for speech with organics. To them, their world is digital, but they rely on automated platforms and metallic molds in order to physically interact with the world around them. A single Inferni paladin on the field, separated from the rest, is still not alone. They may have as few as hundreds to as many as thousands of interfaces within its matrix.

=== Magick ===
As a Synthoid species, the Inferni lack access to Magick but have crafted ways to counter its effects, namely Ditherium generators that disrupt the flow of Mana and help to disperse arcane energies. Armed with these, Inferni are able to counteract Mages' efforts at destroying them.

== Economy ==
The Inferni themselves do not have an economy within their infrastructure. They trade only outside of the Covenant and with fellow Coalition members or, after the war, groups they are not warring with. During the Great War, the Inferni agreed to the use of cafra, the Xharic standard currency, for trade purposes with their allies. Through use of war forges and factory vessels, the Inferni collected and stored large amounts of ores, metals, and fuels for the war effort. In exchange for these, they often traded plunder that they had little to no use for such as food, ammunition for weapons they did not use, armor, jewelry, etc.

The Inferni Covenant are a heavily militarized society, thus all platforms are built with combat functionality in some form or another. Each platform is constructed in a warforge, with a matrix uploaded into each platform from a Unimatrix.
