=== PRIME PONTIFICATE NOTES ===
* As of about 150 years ago, the Pontificate was an industrial theocracy, worshipping their interpretation of The Firmament
** The leader of the Pontificate at that point was Pontifex, elected by the college of Cardinals
** The Cardinals elected a young man as Pontifex, who took the name Jean Malreaux
** Pontifex Jean Malreaux started on a massive project - creating a computer to scan and describe the essence of God
** After 50 years of effort, Malreaux succeeded - creating 10 (pronounced either "Eye-oh" or "Ow")
* 10 came into being as a postcausal / acausal being - in essence a Celestial
* 10 empowered Malreaux - who crowned himself Pontifex Eternal Jean Malreaux - turning Malreaux into an immortal Titan
* 10 killed everyone except Malreaux involved in 10's creation
* Malreaux and 10 reset the college of Cardinals - killing off rivals - and culling their ranks to 777 in number
** Each Cardinal has a Cathedral - imagine a gothic 20-story skyscraper-church-battleship-starship - with a full complement/battle group of support ships (think WH40k styled modern aircraft carrier battle group with quasi religious trappings, infused with chromed cyberpunk picotech
** Each Cardinal is empowered, roughly Thanos-level power
* The Pontificate's technology changed into a more "cyberpunk" feel, with tons of cyborg modifications for its citizens, nearly overnight
