The Magisters' Brief
This page tells you what you, as a Magister, would know beyond an Adherent's knowledge. Please also note that the information available here is not all there is, it is simply what would be known at game start.
Whether you decide to share this information with others is up to you. However, the GMs ask that you relay this information in your own words instead of simply showing others the organisation brief, to maintain a sense of IC authenticity.
The GM in charge of the Magisters is Mark. If you have any questions related to this organisation, feel free to get in touch with them.
The Chambers
The Chambers are just above the Adherents' quarters, beneath the Crux of the Nexus and the Filidhean's domain. Warped by the repeated use of a wide variety of incantations, the twisting passageways in the Chambers have become particularly labyrinthine. Casual wanderers may not end up where they intended to go, but seasoned Magisters have long learned which routes can be traversed safely.
Although the magical teachings of the Alitheia are taught regularly to Adherents in the halls below, it is only in the Chambers that the magics themselves are used. It is well known that, whilst the individual spells cease to function once the caster is outside of the Alitheia's influence, the most learned Magisters do retain certain abilities which can be used beyond Temple's walls. Such abilities are a sure sign that the Magister is soon to become an Ascendant.
Opinions of the other Apices
The Nexus
”I don't really get what that man Quench keeps going on about, how we and they are more alike than we realise, and less than they would like. If you ask me, a man who can work no magic, and no thoughts in his head as to how magic might even work at all, is nothing like a Magister.” - Excogitatoris
The Filidhean
”You know, I don't think anyone should be thinking about doing anything more than has already been done for Crwydra. If he tells you that you should do something that he wants you to do that you don't think he should want you to do then don't do it. If you tell me instead, then I'm sure we can come to some sort of solution to stop him asking for things when we don't want him to ask for them.” - Excogitatoris

Carmen Acerbi
”I didn't think that that young lady would cause any problems, but cause problems she indeed has. It would be greatly beneficial to all, I think, if somebody could explain to her just exactly where her view is flawed. Something tells me that that Kraken lady might also be wanting words with that young lady, although those words might be the kind that end with broken bones. Let's stop things before they go that far now, eh?” - Excogitatoris
The Caverns
”Somebody has been wandering around where they have no right to be wandering, unless they happen to be me, of course, which they most certainly do not happen to be. If anyone happens to work out what is happening in the general location where these things happen, could they possibly work out what has happened so that we can get an idea of what might happen? Stopping that thing from happening might be something we want to consider, and stopping them from making that thing happen might be another.” - Excogitatoris
