Compared to Republic, the Neo Holy Empire has been working with a completely different dataset, and thus, both organizations have made different breakthroughs in their tech. Because of this, the Church frames are lacking certain features that are present on Republic frames, but make up for it with features that Republic frames lack in converse.
Command Spells
The most notable difference between Republic Frames and Church Frames are how they maintain ‘control’ over their Servants. While Republic frames exercise control via the serial number and their ability to bond with a Master, Church frames have access to Command Spells, which are given to a Master upon summoning their Servant.
Much like in the years before the flood, Command Spells are like the leash of a dog, able to reinforce and restrain a Servant, such as preventing them from performing certain actions, or forcing them to commit actions they otherwise wouldn’t. They can also be used to temporarily boost a Servant’s parameters, such as by ordering them to defeat a specific foe. However, these buffs are temporary, and rarely last longer than a single fight.
The Command Spells represent absolute obedience. When an order is given through them, a Servant must obey it. At most, they can resist them through Personal Skills, Noble Phantasms, or through an abstract conceptual advantage. This has, naturally, affected how people view Servants within Church cities. With Command Spells, a Master can control even the most unruly Servant, capable of ordering them around without fear. Because of this safeguard, there are a much greater quantity of Masters in Church cities when compared to Republic cities.
However, though they possess Command Spells, the Church frames lack the abilities of bonding and the consumption of mana batteries to quickly and effortlessly replenish their mana, which are found in Republic frames. Because of this, Church Servants possess a weaker mana output and a lesser overall mana supply to draw upon, and the lack of a bond means a Master cannot communicate telepathically with their Servant.
