Order of the Golden Scales

The order of the Golden Scales is a group of followers that have dedicated their lives to the worship Kelemvor, the God of Death and Judgement. Clerics of the Order perform funerary rites and are known as the 'Death Clergy'.

Structure
The head of the organization, figuratively, is Kelemvor, though realistically the head of the organization is a figurehead known as the Exalted Cleric, he directly communes with the two main branches of the order.

One group is the Clerics known as the Death Clergy is led by a group of Grand Clerics who form a council. They lead the masses of clerics that follow Kelemvor and serve his ideals, as well as the Order of the Silent Shroud who are an organization of gravediggers, embalmers and cemetery workers who perform their duties in Kelevmor's name, as well as report any grave desecrations or undead sightings to the Order.

The second main group is headed up by the Doomguides, a group of elite paladins that carry out Kelemvor's will. They command the paladins of kelemvor.

Neither branches directly interfere with the day-to-day activities of their members unless something urgent arises. The clerics and paladins are largely able to follow their own direction on how to best represent Kelemvor and his ideals, primarily fighting undead, curing the sick to prevent death before it's time, and perform funerary rites, as well as any other normal duties.

Goals
To cure sickness and poison to prevent death before its time, and assist in ushering the souls of the dead to Kelemvor's realm where they are judged and remain for eternity. To destroy undead anywhere it exists, as an affront to the sanctity of both life and death.

Limits
Members of the order strive to judge others without any biased perspectives, and must carry out any appropriate punishments themselves if no one else is willing or able to carry out the sentence. Members must heal the sick and wounded to prevent their soul from passing on before their time. Members are also ordered to destroy all undead whenever they are found by members of the order, unless they are unable to do so themselves, and then they must report the infestation to a superior of the order for a crusade.
