Purification Through Fire

Y'psoma tes Pnoes tou Pneumatos

Y'psoma tes Pnoes tou Pneumatos, means the Aerie of the Spirit's Breath, and is a spring covenant in the Pontic Alps in Eastern Anatolia (modern day Turkey). The starting date for the Saga was 1170 AD (1319 Age of Aries). These pages contain much of the general background information on the Covenant, the Theban Tribunal, and the Byzantine Empire. The overall themes of the Saga are mystery and discovery, and the role of tradition and history within and without the Order. We use primarily 4th Edition Rules with some holdovers from 3rd edition (and earlier). Most of which are listed in the House Rules Section, of the Storyguide primer.
