The infallibles

The infallibles are zealot women who devote themselves to their king. The infallibles have one general rule : no matter what anybody says, the King's orders prevail. It is he and he only who can give orders to an infallible.

Altough they are known for being the king's bodyguards, there are also infallibles in ministeries and secret services. An infallible is easily spotted in the castle : they all have bald heads (except for a few, usually ordered by the king to infiltrate a ministery or a foreign government), wear a fur-coat and a plate armor. They often hold the royal wolves with their whips.

The authority of an infallible prevails on all others in the kingdom. No minister nor general has anything to say if an infallible gives his men an order, since she directly repeats the king's words.

Becoming an infallible is extremely hard, since your skills have to be spotted by the king himself. And even then, the long hellish road to the infallible is just about to begin. Only the king and and the secret services know what are the events a candidate will face, and revealing it is considerated as an act of high betrayal.

BECOMING AN INFALLIBLE (Spoilers.)

Make long story short, the candidate must pass a lot of physical, mental and spiritual tests while under great pressure, until the king decides it's time for the apprentice to get possessed by a Fantasme, trained by Jeremiah to be loyal and faithful to the crown.

Many candidates die or get crazy at this moment. It is said that only one candidate on twenty can pass such trial.

The advantages are legion : the Fantasme is trained to remove all fear, doubt, lazyness or need from the woman's mind. He disables her ability to feel pain or to question the king's authority. He makes her compatible with biotics. He alterates people's perception to make her more impressive (or at the contrary, more common, for the secret services infallibles).
