    The Inquisition in the Jericho Reach

    With the advent of the Achillus Crusade, naturally elements of the Inquisition returned to the
    Jericho Reach. There they found that, even though the Jericho Reach had been cut off for
    millenia, a small band of the Deathwatch had remained, ever faithful and vigilant.

    These Astartes Warriors had kept 'The Long Watch' against the eventual return of the Imperium,
    and were based on the Bastion of Erioch. They welcomed the Inquisition and allowed the
    Inquisition to make Erioch a base of operations.

    Watch Fortress Erioch is a vast space bastion that lies in the outer reaches of the Erioch system
    in the untamed void between the Canis and Acheros salients. It is situated in a stellar dead zone
    populated by only a handful of failing, ancient stars—of which Erioch itself is one. A brutal mass
    of armoured basilica, domes, and spires, the Fortress bristles with enough armament to rival a
    sizable battlegroup of warships, largely concealing the fact that underneath the Imperial
    ceramite and firepower, it is built on a ruined artefact that was old when Terra’s star was first
    forming. Within it is a vast maze of echoing, dust-carpeted corridors that wander past silent
    chapels and armoured vaults sealed with adamantine doors. Beneath war-tattered banners of
    glories past, the Battle-Brothers of the Deathwatch in residence move between cells, practice
    ranges, armouries and briefing theatres like spectres in a dead city, their numbers swallowed by
    the vast and labyrinthine nature of the fortress.

    The Watch Fortress could hold an entire Chapter of Adeptus Astartes with ease, but its records
    show that there are rarely more than a score of Deathwatch based out of it at any time. Most of
    these Space Marines are off on missions around the Jericho Reach, leaving only a handful in
    attendance at any one moment.

    The Inquisitor of the Chamber

    The Inquisitor of the Chamber is a member of the Inquisition who represents the interests of the
    Holy Ordos. This Inquisitor almost always heralds from the ranks of the Ordo Xenos, although
    there have been exceptions made in the past. The Inquisitor of the Chamber is a position of
    honour and a symbol of the ties between the Deathwatch and Inquisition in the Jericho Reach.
    The position and title of Inquisitor of the Chamber is bestowed on an Inquisitor by a conclave of
    his peers, and remains his until he dies, chooses to relinquish the position, or another is sent to
    take his place. Part emissary, intermediary, facilitator, and watcher of the watchers, Inquisitors of
    the Chamber are often chosen for their diplomatic and political skill. Many are also great
    warriors or savants of huge erudition. Most have found, however, that being able to speak
    warrior-to-warrior is often an advantage when dealing with the Deathwatch.

    The current Inquisitor of the Chamber is Inquisitor Hezika Carmillus of the Ordo Xenos. She has
    held the post for the last 16 years, having served as an Inquisitor now for 200 years.

    Due to the nature of the Inquisition and the few Inquisitors found in the Reach, the main Ordos
    have not generally had much in the way of organization. The Inquisitor of the Chamber and her
    servants have generally seen to the needs of the Inquisition and coordinated any joint missions.

    Recently, the Ordo Xenos (the most numerous in the Reach) have elected Inquisitor Quist as
    their Lord Inquisitor. The Ordo Malleus and Ordo Hereticus have so far not nominated anyone
    as a representative, acting mainly independently or at the requests of the Inquisitor of the
    Chamber or the Lord Militants of the Crusade.
