== Organization == The Steel Ministry is organized into subsections called Cantons. The priests were called obligators and the [[Steel Inquisitors]] were members of the Ministry that had been Hemalurgically granted all the powers of a [[Mistborn]]. {{image\|obligator by Harry Shea-Pelletier.png\|Obligator\|side=right\|width=200px}} === Canton of Orthodoxy === {{image\|Inquisitor_by_Ydunn_Lopez.jpg\|A Steel Inquisitor\|side=left\|width=300px}} ==== Purpose ==== The Canton of Inquisition is run by the [[Steel Inquisitors]] and acts as law enforcement, especially over the Allomantic community. Obligators of the Canton of Inquisition have the usual tattoos around their eyes, with the addition of a stark red line on the side of their face.{{book ref\|mb1\|27}} Administrators in this Canton collect and file information that would assist in the policing efforts. The information they collect is about nobles houses, skaa rebels, and other Cantons.{{book ref\|mb3\|29}} In addition to dealing with anyone that went against Ministry protocol, the Canton of Inquisition also has bases all around the city of [[Luthadel]], called Soothing stations. Their purpose is to dampen the emotions of everyone in the area, calming and depressing them to prevent rebellion. In addition, many Inquisitors find skaa Mistings by installing [[bronze\|Seekers]] in the Soothing stations.{{book ref\|mb1\|27}} There are between thirty and forty soothing stations around the city, each with three Soothers, a Seeker, and a Smoker to mask the Allomancy to anyone outside.{{book ref\|mb1\|29}} ==== History ==== The Canton of Inquisition was formed sometime during the sixth century of the Lord Ruler's reign. This Canton was the one to suggest the [[Terris]] breeding programs to the Lord Ruler in order to keep the Terris population under control. The Lord Ruler agreed to it provisionally, and the programs were then kept until the collapse of the Final Empire. However, the subjugation of the Terris people started far before the Canton of Inquisition came up with the idea of the breeding programs.{{book ref\|mb3\|44}} The [[Inquisitors]] themselves didn't belong to the regular chain of command in the Steel Ministry, but were ranked below the Lord Prelan. Through [[Kar]]'s revelation that [[Vin]] was the daughter of the Lord Prelan [[Tevidian Tekiel]], shortly before the death of the [[Lord Ruler]], the Canton of Inquisition gained dominance over the other Cantons.{{book ref\|mb1\|36}} {{sidequote\|As I walk, I wonder what secrets the Inquisitors deemed worthy of hiding below the earth, in the basement of their stronghold.\|[[Sazed]], observing the Conventical of Seran{{book ref\|mb2\|12}}\|side=right\|size=300px}} Each year, new Ministry acolytes are transported from a training facility in the northern part of the Empire to Luthadel.
