The Tribunal is the term used to refer to the Qadi collectively. Together, the tribunal oversees many of the sect’s rituals and trials.
Overview[]
The Del'Roh is the ultimate authority within the Black Hand, and all obey her. The Seraph are the supreme leaders on Earth, though they must answer to the Del’Roh in Enoch for all their actions. Elders of the Hand, called the Qadi, settle disputes and determine guilt and innocence in cases involving sect members. Lesser members of the sect occasionally assist them in their duties, but because the Hand is far smaller than the Camarilla, they seldom need assistance. The Qadi also act as leaders during many of the sect’s rituals, as they are almost always former Rawis — keepers of the Guarded Rubrics.
The Black Hand is harsh and unforgiving in its punishments. No efforts are made to reform the behavior of the offender, for he is expected to know better than to commit crimes against the sect.
