🔥 Infernal Bureaucracy

SET 6: Hierarchy & Conflicts

Where Power Organizes Itself

Set 6 explores the political heart of Hell.

Here, hierarchy is not background.

It is organism.

This set focuses on power structures, inevitable internal conflicts, and the negotiations that shape institutional balance. This is not open warfare. It is jurisdiction, precedent, metrics, authority, and structural survival.

Every conflict within the hierarchy does not threaten the system.

It refines it.

📌 Narrative Focus

Infernal hierarchy as a living structure
Power defined by authority, documentation, and precedent
Conflict as procedural refinement
Diplomacy as strategic recalibration
Stability achieved through controlled friction

Internal disputes are not cracks in the foundation.

They are pressure tests.

🗂️ Included Tables (7 × d100)

1️⃣ Type of Hierarchy

Models of infernal organization — councils, tribunals, layered command chains, distributed authority systems.

2️⃣ Conflict of Interests

Institutional disputes between sectors, departments, or authorities competing for jurisdiction, influence, or metrics.

3️⃣ Negotiation / Diplomacy

Formal and informal negotiations where concessions reshape power and redefine operational boundaries.

4️⃣ Common Enemy

External or systemic threats that force rival factions into temporary strategic alignment.

5️⃣ Consequence of the Conflict

Institutional outcomes that alter balance, oversight, or structural tension.

6️⃣ Resolution of the Conflict

Official procedural closures — rulings, reforms, restructurings, or silent reassignments.

7️⃣ Consequence of the Resolution

Long-term impacts that consolidate new layers of control and redefine future disputes.

🎲 How to Use This Set

To create deep infernal politics
To design intrigue between councils, departments, and authorities
To build campaigns driven by jurisdictional tension
To show that victory within the system is never absolute
To generate narrative arcs where stability creates new rigidity

These tables allow conflicts to evolve without destabilizing the machine.
