Summer Covenants
Brabonicum (PC) - the Tremere chapterhouse in the Tribunal, and geographically isolated from much of the life of the Tribunal. Emerging from a second Spring back into Summer. (7 votes, 1 apprentice)
Hereward's Isle - is a two century old covenant which is now enjoying a second Summer, Hereward's Isle is a mixed covenant with an illustrious history situated on a hidden island in the Fens. It's magi are known to include Byron of Merinita, Lucius of Flambeau, William Ex Miscellanea, Janus of Bonisagus, Alyssa of Ex Miscellanea and Svetlana of Bjornaer. They have trained several apprentices. They are very isolated from the Order as a whole and redcap visits there are very rare, so the situation may well have changed. (6 votes, 2 apprentices)
Martins Mere (PC) - Refounded 1199 on the site of a previously destroyed covenant. It has 8 Magi: (2 Tremere 1 Bonisagus, 1 Mercere, 1 Verditious, 1 Bjornear, 2 Ex-Miscelania) and some apprentices either at or past Gauntlet. (7 votes (2 of which are NPCs), 1 redcap, 1 apprentice)
The Mercere House (Bath) - Recently re-founded. (About 7 Redcaps)
Wychwood (PC) - A growing covenant, recently moved into Summer, set in the Royal Forest of Wychwood. (9 Votes, 4 apprentices)
Autumn Covenants
Stonehenge - is the single most powerful covenant in the Tribunal, and the largest with 13 magi. It aggressively protects its vis sources and dominates every Tribunal, as the Praeco Cuthbert of Flambeau resides here, along with Chad of Flambeau the Chief Hoplite and Tanaquil of Guernicus the Presiding Quaesitor. Five of the magi are a clutch of Criamon magi, whose activities are completely baffling to almost everyone outside the covenant, and possibly some within, though it is rumpoured that they are not schismatics not in communion with the Cave of Twisting Shadows. There are few Criamon magi in Stonehenge other than them to ask the truth. The Stonehenge covenant works carefully to restrict i) open practice of magic in froint of mundanes ii) interference with mundanes iii) creation of magical gold or silver iv) advocates hidden covenants and a secret order and v) are suspicious of House Ex Miscellanea, Merinita and Bjornaer magi who they claim are little better than the accursed Diedne. This is ironic as House Ex Miscellanea was founded in the battle against Diedne! Stonehenge covenant has strong political opinions and uses Tribunals and Marches to enforce its will. (13 votes)
Avalon (PC) - is a small covenant hidden in a regio near Glastonbury in Somerset. The magi there are very strongly associated with the Arthurian myth, which is a politically loaded myth right now: the Welsh Kings say Arthur will return, and overthrow the Saxons kingdom of England! Arthurian myth is everywhere around the covenant, and the magi there are experts in the subject, as well as the shadowy truth behind the stories. What they know they are not saying! They are known as rivals to Stonehenge Covenant, and for their strong association with extolling chivalry and knightly virtues. Desdevarious of Merinita, Moira of York (a Bjornaer maga), Anna Ex Miscellanea and Stephren of Jerbiton are all elderly magi who make up the covenant. (12 votes (of which 3 are NPCs))
Cad Gadu - is a glass island floating in the middle of Lake Bala, and home to the strange warding experts of House Ex Misceallanea, as well as Domus Magna of the House. There power is great, but largely symbolic, and they still await the return of Pralix the Founder, centuries lost to Twilight. Recently they have been under scrutiny as linked to Welsh nationalism and Celtic revivalism which are dangerous currents in mortal politics. The covenant denies any knowledge of these things. (9 votes)
