1117 AD
Description
The wooden fort is situated in hills. There is a small magical regio on a neighbouring hill which currently provides a few pawns each year. On the wooden gate house is hung a large silver statue of a dragon, with amber eyes and complex verditious designs etched into the surface. Corlear of Borri-Tor created the statue to help ward the site from the effects of a strange magical malignment that beset the covenant. Though recently it appears to have stopped working, there has been no sign of a return of the mysterious plague.
Background
Formed at the Tribunal of 1066 this covenant has done much to establish itself in such a short time, announcing itself as a Summer covenant in the Tribunal of 1115. The covenant still works to establish good relations with local mundanes, aided by Blodwyn's services to the local peasantry. Politics is relatively sedate, but each of the magi have strong opinions. Arguments occasionally break out, but they have not become so serious as to require a formal certamen to resolve them. Erin calls himself an alchemist, and looks as if he might yet become one of the finest makers of potions in the tribunal. Jordael at Cad Gadu appears to be a firm ally, and appears to have taken Erin under his wing as a mentor of sorts. Torius searches for the enigma through the study of cloud forms, and spends much of his time apparently asleep at the top of the tower. Kauser, whose heart shape is an eagle, spends much of his time away from the covenant when not required for service. Currently each magus is expected to perform one season in every year in the service of the covenant. Blodwyn, probably the finest healer in the Tribunal, originally came from Cad Gadu in order to help out after the death of Wydrith. She has opted to stay at the covenant and has set up an infirmary where any magus may receive her healing. Tyrell, the quietly spoken Merinitan, disappeared into a nearby Faerie regio and was found dead, killed by unseelie fae, some time later.
Major attributes
The covenant has a growing number of vis sites, and is running at a profit. Although there is no visitors library the magi are generally pleased to exchange knowledge. The laboratories are greatly improved, and Erin's specialised laboratory rivals many at older covenants.
