The magi of the Covenant at Felchester were the last to see Siccoculus before he went into hiding in 385. He told them that he didn't do it. They believed him.

The Last Felcastrians

By SK on May 4, 2005 4:56 am
For the past forty-five years, these three magi have been raising students together in Amicitian Fellowship. Unlike most of the successful long-term "Trios" which have come out of the Castrian covenants, Vacatio, Vix and Anguis have never founded a covenant of their own, and there is no particular name by which they are known. They were the last magi resident at the Covenant at Felchester, which they abandoned in 401; since then, they have lived at Covenant Plenilunium Album. They are the Order's most vocal living defenders of "second-generation Amicitianism"-- Amicitianism as it has come over time to be practiced by the members of the Castrian covenants and Covenant Mille Lacus.

Writing to Cristoferians; Gætani song-stylings; “Didn’t he once have an animal companion that he roasted?”; evil Cow-sputum; “It’s a year thing. Has nothing to do with competency”; Shammomóli’s request; a less religious part; the intelligence one might gather from traveling entertainers; far, far, far away; the dignity of magi; early morning banter; a nondescript guy; a big pile of steaming; “That wasn’t nearly as fucking funny as I thought it would be”; a different nondescript guy; “My current circumstances”; the squawking parrot.

Early Plenilunial Savacion, a founder of the Covenant at Stony Hill.
So this came up in game... What time of the year do Savacions hold their Gauntlet? I for some reason got it in my head that it was held during the summer some time. Kip thought it would be held this winter. My thought on summer time is that Tension, Strife, Dominion and the holidays Transformation and Passion seem much more Savacion-y to me then Union, Wisdom, Despair and the holidays Ascension and Dissipation. Those are all wonderful months and holidays in concept and Savacions all across the Known World give them their due respect, but those are not the "butt kicking for goodness" times of the year like summer is.

Dumtaxat and Onyx

By SK on May 9, 2005 8:06 pm
Dumtaxat of House Savacion and Onyx of House Touccio scandalized the Order by living openly together as man and wife for thirty-five years at Covenant Mille Lacus.

Onyx

By SK on May 9, 2005 8:15 pm
A native Rhythnorian with a natural gift for curses and destructive magics, she was raised at Covenant Ultorum by the embittered and curse-obsessed Smaragda of House Touccio. Like her parens, she specialized in dark, destructive and damaging magics and in convoluted trigger mechanisms. Unlike her parens, she was far more interested in practical application than in the curses of legend, and she was one of the very few female members of the Touccian House to have focused primarily on work with metal and stone.

Pumilio

By CS on May 19, 2005 2:54 am
("The Dwarf") Filius Caesius apprenticed 293 graduated 308 "Restorer of the Ultorum" Annalum: 293-316 Ultorum: 316-379 died 379 Sent by Annalum in 316 to the Ultorum in the hope of ending the feud between Ultorum and Annalum, he was horrified by the decrepit state of the covenant. He set about bullying and shaming the younger mages at the covenant into staying on to help restore the covenant, and begged and borrowed whatever resources he could get his hands on. Over the decades he was largely successful in restoring the covenant's strength. In his later years, he became eccentric, spending long hours chatting with the bound spirit of Held. He also fell accidentally into a fued with the vengeful Smaragda. Not a particularly prolific writer, he published a useful compendium of spells for a happy household.

The Feud between Pumilio and Smaragda

By CS on May 19, 2005 3:07 am
At some point in the late 370s, Pumilio made some comment concerning something, perhaps it was Touccians, perhaps it was women, perhaps it was the nastiness of Smaragda's line of study, perhaps it was about how she should do some work for the covenant, perhaps it was just about the weather, that infuriated Smaragda thoroughly. She publicly cursed him out, promising him a slow and painful death from humiliating diseases. Given her propensities, this raised a great deal of concern among the other mages of the covenant, who eventually forced her to formally and magically retract her curse, and further demanded that she provide recompense to Pumilio for the attack.

Dramatis personæ; how not to pick a fight; thirteen armed men ride up to a gate; the news from Yaakni’ Páyyatha; the Princeling visits the sun; “Would you prefer a scholarly exegesis? Or something more dramatic?”; Bubbles does not remember; Tully swoons in theatrical excess; “A political statement I do not fully understand”; a lot of fish; “We used little sticks”; Bubbles doesn’t remember again; the advantages of being forgotten; celebrating Passion properly.

The charming if somewhat passive apex of the Talchester Trio. He was popular with women, but not at all popular within his own House of Savacion, whose members denounced him as an effeminate coward.

By CS on May 29, 2005 1:50 am
The Avereth live far to the North of the Choleic lands, beyond the Quintillican Confederacy and the Ashreg. Their home lands are largely desert, with some more habitable coastal regions. They are one of the few peoples, along with the Tympanians, whose post-Theocratic period has not been continuously marred by the reign of quasi-theocratic Stewards and their descendants. Their religion, which strongly emphasizes the activities of Reason incarnate and his Prophet, is recognized by the Holy Church as a kindred spirit.
