During the reign of  Charlemagne, to ensure his control over occult forces in his empire, a secret order was established from his most loyal knights. That Order has since become independent from any one nation and has come to be known as Malleus Maleficarum. The ultimate goal of Malleus Maleficarum is to maintain the natural order of the world, and to this end destroy the abominations which upset that order by their very affronterie to nature.

Also to the ends of maintaining order, Malleus Maleficarum is held in secrecy, and to this end also serves as a banking and trade insurance companie, the Mazarin & Melegari Companie.
