Synod

A Synod is a meeting of several high-ranking Sabbat authorities to clarify an interpretation of the sect's doctrine, in order to avoid exploitations by heretics and infernalists

At a synod, significant changes to Sabbat doctrine can occur: additions or alterations to the Auctoritas Ritae, Blood Baths for members of the Consistory, or the founding of a Black Cathedral. Synods are called on rare occasion to solve a major internal issue or clarify the Sect’s religious beliefs.

Known Synods

  • Synod of Orphans, the first Synod that established the Auctoritas Ritae
  • Synod of Hounds, the most recent Synod that debates modern changes like the fusion of the High Holidays in one Ritae
