The Steel Ministry was the religion of the Final Empire, made up of various divisions, named Cantons, that also served as the government's bureaucracy. Obligator is the title for those who are part of the Ministry. It also contains the Inquisitors.

One of the main purposes of the Ministry was to witness a myriad of contracts and agreements, even something as simple as promise to come to a game of shelldry. [1]

Obligators

The obligators would have to be called in to witness or approve of anything significant going on in the Final Empire.

In addition to their bureaucratic functions the obligators served as the Lord Ruler's religious leaders. They would teach the Lord Ruler's religion to skaa and noblemen alike.

Obligators were notable in having a deep faith in the religion surrounding the Lord Ruler and Obligators were distinguished by intricate tattoos around their eyes to signify to their rank and Canton membership. [2][3] There were also assassins in the Steel Ministry. [1]
