Ambitus Obscura

Saga and Covenant

Ambitus Obscura is the northernmost covenant in the Novgorod tribunal, founded 1222 A.D. The covenant itself is located somewhere between the islands of Fisby and Dago. Upon its founding by the eccentric Rudolfus of Bonisagus, it met strong opposition by existing covenants. The covenant had to be acknowledged by the Tribunal by vote before any of its members would be recognized.

Many young magi have come to this covenant, ranging from the misfit to the adventurous, to make this their home.


Covenant

The charter of the covenant is also available for perusal.

The library is quite modest; the arts index may aid your research.

The vis sources of the covenant are formidable, although not necessarily public knowledge. The archon notes specify debts of vis and service owed.

The covenant is starting to amass items of interest, either through invention, discovery, or trade.

 

Tribunal
