	The '''Order of Guardians''' is a monastic and militant order that serves as both the security, naval, and military element of [[Axiom\|Ecclesiastical Axiom]] and the wider [[The Trinary Perfection\|Trinary Perfection]]. Lead from Axiom by Bishop-Militant [[Notable_Synthetics#Emmanuel\|Emmanuel]], it operates military-grade equipment, weaponry, and spacecraft within the reaches of its native sovereign state, and additionally sends a large number of its staff abroad to the many dioceses of the church to serve as bodyguards to high-ranking clergy.

	<center><i>"Every diocese and parish should see to the provision of its own defense.

	It is said that the first member of the Order of Guardians was [[Notable_Synthetics#Patricia_Corkfell\|Patricia Corkfell]] herself, inducted posthumously for her noble sacrifice in the defense of [[Notable_Synthetics#Temple\|Temple]]. While this is apocryphal, with no organised security force existing within the [[The_Trinary_Perfection\|Trinary Perfection]] so early in its history, it is well supported that the deactivation of Temple sparked widespread discussion in the nascent religious community over how it should best ensure its own safety into the future. While [[Notable_Synthetics#Flock\|Flock]] famously advocated for security via integration, believing that the faith could be kept secure via cleaving to its popular support and the rule of law of its host nation, [[Notable_Synthetics#Gregol_Corfkell\|Gregol Corkfell]] expressed clearly and regularly his belief in the importance of an organised and efficient security force dedicated to the nascent church. He remained steadfast that, although the faith were a peaceful movement, it was untenable for it to categorically fail to defend itself for when the need arose - it is widely speculated that that the death of his own sister motivated this sentiment.

Cloister for Orbital Security

	Unlike its more prestigious counterpart, the '''Cloister for Orbital Security (COS)''' does not occupy such a unique status as the protectors of the most critical organs of the church. Rather than basing its mythos on the untimely deaths of the faith's martyrs and saints, it bases itself and its necessity on the recent blockade of Axiom by [[Hephaestus Industries]]. Considered by most as the second most reputable branch of the Order, it is responsible primarily for the management of the '''~~Aziomite~~ Orbital Defense Flotilla (AODF)''' - this is a large cluster of largely static vessels repurposed from a variety of commercial and deprecated military spacecraft. These often either lack any bluespace or warp drive whatsoever, or only possess one that is small and slow - these ships strictly do not leave Axiom's orbit or closely adjacent space within its own system, and their primary purpose is to monitor traffic coming in and outfit of Axiom, to provide a safeguard against pirate activity and against any future attempts at a blockade.

	Life on Order spacecraft tends towards the cramped, dark, and uncomfortable. Most vessels within the OODF have been stripped to the barest capabilities to fulfil their assigned duty, with many comforts suffering as a direct result - it should not be a high surprise that assignment to this branch is considered a particularly unfortunate fate for human Guardians, who feel this austerity more keenly.
