The Library The seat of concillium power. On the bottom floor of the library, at the base of the stairs, is scribed the Atlantean symbol for 'Prime'. An awakened creature touching this symbol will cause the stairs to extend into the ground, revealing a lower basement floor. This floor is a copy of the floor above, but with the concillium's arcane library lining the bookshelves. There is a hidden escape route to the outside known only to few.


The Library Vault Inside the hidden escape route is a trapdoor with a golden lock. Down the ladder below is the concillium vault, now empty. There is no guardian, only the wards preventing teleportation remain.


The Business Park Public home of the Order of Reason cabal, an extended non-Atlantean cabal who believe in global Ascension of all mankind by introducing Supernal concepts to the world as advanced technology. The take a dim view on ANY public displays of supernatural power and are prepared to use snipers to shoot anyone who breaks their mandate.


Hospital mortuary The mortuary of Armidale. The Coroner was killed by a corpse that got off the slab and ripped out his throat.


The Cathedral Armidale Cathedral has been noteworthy only because the Abyssal Mirror was found in the basement there. The history behind this has not been investigated. Next to the mirror were the words "Wish for death", written in blood.

Weird Shit

Ok, look, there's all these strange things going on. I'm just going to note down a few things that we should probably look into. I don't catch everything that happens, so you'll need to update this yourselves.

In Progress:

Weird magical fungal disease. Looks nasty, attracted to magic users, lethal infection that kills you and creates:

Infectious Fungal Zombies Corpses reanimated by this weird fungus. Can be directly attacked using life magic.

The Anomaly Resembles the astral mirror we found(superficially?). Leads to a place outside of time, space, not connected to anything magically. It'll probably kill you somehow, be careful.

Cat shapechanger in the human subconscious. You let that that Carter's Familliar guy into Astral space. This had better not bite us in the ass.

Icy Mechanics resonance If some Mage manipulated this disease into crossing paths with us, I want to find out who.

Resolved:

Astral/Abyssal Mirror This was a pathway to an Abyssal labyrinth that snaked through Armidale. It was full of funky weird stuff - endless deserts, cinemas with giant tentacles, elevators to the sky, fucked up tube maps. We fixed it and now the mirror is a physical portal to the local astral space. It seems to react to the thoughts of whoever is touching it. It's REALLY easy to get someone trapped in there. Don't let noobs near it.

The Vault When we rescued Carter from the mirror, she unmade the guardian, allowing us to plunder the vault. Everything inside it is secured in Erasmus's portable sanctum. It's cool, I know how we can get inside in an emergency.
