Justicar

The justicars are the most powerful visible component of the Camarilla's government, charged with adjudicating matters of the Traditions on a wide scale and acting as the eyes, ears, and hands of the Inner Circle. There is one justicar for each clan of the Camarilla, and each is served by several handpicked archons who act as their spies, enforcers, and representatives around the world.

The justicars are the voice of the Inner Circle and their actions can only be challenged by another justicar, granting them nearly unlimited power to do as they see fit. A justicar can seize whatever resources are required, rearrange offices with impunity, and even depose of princes if they so desire. And though most justicars are prudent enough to consider their actions when dealing with other highly influential Kindred, such abuses of power earn them a great deal of resentment from vampires of all ages. More commonly they spend their time calling conclaves to judge disputes and crimes, or simply to encourage social gatherings within the Camarilla, and oversee the war against the Sabbat.

Justicars are chosen by the Inner Circle every 13 years during the Camarilla conclave in Venice. Appointments are an intense, drawn out process as each clan attempts to elevate its most talented members and likewise limit the power of the other clans. This politicking often results in compromise candidates and new rivalries, but in the end the Inner Circle decides on its own, and over the centuries several unexpected choices have been made. Justicars hold their position for 13 years, although a justicar may be chosen for consecutive terms.

The last known set of justicars were appointed at a Conclave in 1998. The justicars appointed there were:

• Jaroslav Pascek, Justicar of Clan Brujah
• Maris Streck, Justicar of Clan Malkavian
• Cock Robin, Justicar of Clan Nosferatu
• Madame Guil, Justicar of Clan Toreador
• Anastasz Di Zagreb, Justicar of Clan Tremere
• Lucinde, Justicar of Clan Ventrue
• Xaviar, Justicar of Clan Gangrel

Xaviar was the last of the Gangrel to hold the office of justicar before the clan's departure from the Camarilla under his leadership in 1999. In 2003, Maris Streck was executed by her fellow justicars for her allegiance to a network of Kindred slave traders and diablerists.
