| ⚫ | Clockwork is used extensively in Monarchical churches. The [[Jamestown]] Cathedral's main window is a clock made entirely of stained-glass. It also has a number of clockwork automatons in the shape of various apostles and saints which will occasionally move. The statue of Saint DaVinci for example drew various symbols, such as circles, gears, and triangles, on the floor in front of it. Clockwork gargoyles are also found on the cathedral's roof, patrolling above the entrances.{{book ref|Rithmatist|19}} |

| − | Rithmatic drawings are another decorative feature in Monarchical churches, especially around depictions of King Gregory III. The [[Wikipedia:Mitre|miters]] worn by priests of the Monarchical Church depict a nine-point circle overlaid on a cross. The Jamestown Cathedral has, at the point where the two arms of the cathedral meet the main aisle, a circle with pillars set at the bindpoints of a nine-point circle.{{book ref|Rithmatist|19}} |
