The Steel Inkwizishon

[JUQ he/him]

The pen is mightier than the sword. The spike, too, as we found. The members of The Steel Inkwizishon are feared the world over for their ruthlessness. They are easily recognizable from their shaved heads, tattoos, and fountain pens where their eyes should be. They aren't the sort of person you'd like to meet in a dark alley, so it's probably better for you to join.

Their chief weapon is fear; Fear and surprise.  Their TWO chief weapons are fear, surprise, and powerful allomancy.  Their THREE chief weapons are fear, surprise, powerful allomancy, and an almost fanatical devotion to the Lord Ruler.  Their FOUR chief weapons are...Oh we'll come in again!

I'm not sure where you got this idea from, but their chief weapon is the pen.

Everyone fears them. Their hemalurgically gifted abilities surprise people, as well as their riot/sooth stations. They have access to powered up allomantic abilities. And they are fanatically devout TLR.

The inquisitors are the most notable members and the leaders of the Steel Inquisition (in-world, of course).

Yes, I knew this. The Inkwizitors, however, are much stronger. Just imagine an Inquisitor crossed with a politician. Now, that is scary.

So basically we finally get a politician who can actually make good on their promises?

We get a politician who can kill you in nineteen different ways.

Do you think they have global warming on Scadrial, with the CO2 from the ashmounts?

That is a very good point you raise, but let me remind you of all the positive things the Inkwizishon has achieved, such as killing skaa, killing more skaa, killing noblemen, and killing obligators.

Excellent point... er... pointy spikes.

We have also improved the Ministry's reputation since coming to power. This chart (holds up chart) shows the amount of halfbreed mistborn found and killed before and after the Inkwizishon came to power. The chart is from the Canton of Lies, damnation Lies, and Statistics. As you can see, the amount as doubled from three per year to six per year.
(Jeers and derision from the opposition benches)

Your information comes from the Canton of Lies? Wise choice.

This is a very good point you raise, but you must realize that the Inkwizishon has done many wonderful things since coming to power. We have reduced skaa tax, improved the canal system, and overseen the construction of a lot of ten Soothing stations outside of Luthadel.

Reduced the skaa tax? Is that due to fewer taxpayers or a higher rate of starvation? Either way I guess it's a win.

These do not affect the raw tax rate.

You mention cancer, but you fail to see the immense benefits of the Inkwizishon.

I've begun to believe I've missed my calling. I should have been a politician.

Hmmm, interesting, but I don't think you fully understand the greater implications of simple day-to-day decisions.

Oh True Survivor, who hath surviveth the wrath of the Lord Ruler, who are you to understand the implications of day-to-day decisions? You should leave that to those underneath you. I'm pretty sure your underling inkwizitors regret choosing your canton because you're so micromanaging. I mean, you're not even willing to let an inkwizitor under you reply to comments and keep this page updated.

I believe I may have met your match. The only thing I can do is ask you why you aren't running for president?
Of course, it is entirely possible that you are Donald Trump, but your profile says you are a muslim, so it doesn't appear to be so. That raises an interesting possibility, however. You could, in fact, be insecure as a muslim and therefore make hate speech about them (as Donald Trump).

I don't think that's possible. My hands are not small enough and my skin isn't orange. Did you consider that I could be a lame left-wing socialist who thinks he's funny? Well, I'm not that either. Maybe I'm a witty guy who works for Hillary. But that's not true. I'm just an eccentric guy. A hero maybe, but a small one. I am... Rick Harrison, and this is my pawn shop. I work here with my old man and my son, Big Hoss. Everything in here has a story and a price. One thing I've learned after 21 years - you never know what is gonna come through that door.

Did you see that coming? If you didn't you need to improve your atium skills.
