Description

A small wooden palisade, slowly being replaced by a stone wall, protects a central stone keep containing the Magi's laboratories and sancti. Set on a wooded hill in the rainswept heathland of the moor, Carrion Moor is a bleak and cheerless place. This young covenant has only a few grogs, lead by an able but inexperienced Castellan. Morale here is fair, but fear of a Black Beast which haunts the moors has hampered patrols.

Background

Set up at the Tribunal of 1094, this Spring covenant is yet to make it's mark upon the affairs of the Tribunal. De Camp, filius Lamark, is the nominal leader and works hard to establish good local relations. Kira, filia Eloria, is as clever and manipulative as her mater. Myra, filia Sylvania, has strong faerie blood and an affinity with faeries of the air. Kael of Ex-Miscellanea left the covenant to reside in South England after differences between her and De Camp made her staying untenable.

Major attributes

As yet the covenant has little in the way of a library or vis sources.  It is known that the moors are home to many fae, and the magi can obtain some meagre supplies of Auram and Animal vis from there.  There is also supposed to be a 'witch tree', which is said to bleed blood rather than sap when you cut it.  This tree is a source of Corporem vis.  There is no visitors' library and the laboratories are sparsely equipped.  They are eager to exchange knowledge with other covenants.
