Obsidian Tribunal Shadow Adept

Obsidian Tribunal Shadow Adepts are the surviving clerks, judges, and inquisitors of a lost legal order that believed truth could be extracted only where light and shadow argued over every word. They discovered that obsidian, born from extreme heat and cooled in an instant, could hold a memory of judgment better than parchment. Over generations, that principle became a doctrine of cruelty. Now they inscribe sentences into black glass, then speak the verdict aloud to make the punishment real. Their trials rarely seek justice. They seek obedience, leverage, and names.
