Sanctum Sanctorum |
In the heart of Dravel sits an antique Elizabethan Manor House, its expanse is roughly the size of one modern day city block and it stands five stories in height. Appearing as if it has only one doorway and one highly ornate octagonal glass window, the design on the window being a protective spell which allows only Akhayee or the allies of the Akhayee to enter into the Sanctum. Should anyone else enter they will suffer from a psychic backlash in which all of the individuals powers will ignite at once and be turned against their user five fold. The Drawing of power from the Caern nearby into this spell virtually assures this deadly effect. The meeting place of the Dark Circle, the Sanctum has had protective spells and incantations placed upon it to such a degree that only those allowed access to its halls are allowed to use powers within its walls,even those who are granted temporary access do not have access to their powers inside. The housing place of the Planar Ward for the Northern Pass allowing no planar energy other than those of Starthra Prime, Hell, and Heaven to be accessed in the Northern Pass. Barrier wards against Garou, Mages, Kindred, Fae, Demons, Angels and Spirits have been placed placed upon the manor as well allowing only specified people into the Sanctums inner walls. Containing a vast arcane library and several ritual rooms the Sanctum harbors a nearly unimaginable supply of magic knowledge and lore. So peculiar are the librarians of the Sanctum and so precise that they have placed spells upon each and every item within the Sanctum halls. The first spell is a cleaning spell to save them time with the chores, this spell keeps everything clean and in pristine order in the Sanctum. The second is an organizational spell which has been cast upon every item inside the Sanctum walls. This spell asures that nothing is ever out of place inside the Sanctum... books will float back to their shelves, furniture will return to its original position when they are not in use. This makes stealing items impossible from the library because unless cleared by the librarians any item removed from the library will teleport back to its allotted position within the Sanctum. As far as overdue items are concerned once an object is due for return it instantly returns back to the library . Ruthless as far as the upkeep of the libraries property goes, the librarians have been known to torment those beings who misuse the facilities of the Sanctum. The inner meeting chambers and the Akhayee ritual rooms are the only things off limits to the librarians of the Sactum Sanctorum. The Sanctum was designed to become the mainstay site for the students fo the Dark Circle, under the guidance of the Archons the virtually limitless potential of the young mages who are allowed into the Dark Circle is nearly limitless. Provided with ample time and tutelage the future mage cast of the Akhayee will undoubtedly be a superb lot full of great potential. The mage cast will undoubtedly be a combination of the best magics that our archons can provide them. |
