The Ruby Reliquary preserves and transmits the doctrines of Abaddism. These beliefs guide members in practice, thought, and ritual, emphasizing order, finality, and fidelity.
1. Abaddon as Sovereign Principle
Abaddon represents finality, judgment, and the ultimate authority. Loyalty and truthfulness to Abaddon are fundamental; all actions are measured against this standard.
2. Preservation Over Comfort
Doctrine and record are preserved without embellishment or reinterpretation. Comfort, personal bias, or sentimentality cannot override the archival integrity of the Reliquary.
3. Integrity of Record
Honesty, documentation, and clarity are core values. Members must ensure that all contributions to the archive are accurate and verifiable.
4. Hierarchy and Order
The structure of the Reliquary exists to maintain order and accountability. Respect for rank and procedural adherence is required for cohesion and continuity.
5. Ritualized Discipline
Discipline is a central practice. Members engage in repeated ritualized acts that reinforce loyalty, focus, and alignment with Abaddist principles.
6. Self-Acceptance Through Alignment
Acceptance of one’s role and actions within the framework of Abaddism is emphasized. Members cultivate awareness of strengths, weaknesses, and responsibility.
