In Hermetic society, a Chapter House is a part of a covenant that isn't at the main covenant's site yet regularly houses magi. It is formally a part of the covenant, and its magi are subject to the same Charter as in the main site, but in addition may enjoy different priveleges and duties according to the chapter house's own Charter.
The practice of chapter houses is said to have begun in the Greater Alps Tribunal, and has been used in canon by [[on by Fengheld in the Rhine Tribunal.
Chapter Houses have a tendency to rebel against their mother covenant, turning into independent covenants. They are also a way to effectively found Vassal Covenants even without a local Tribunal tradition to that effect. Since they are still a part of the mother covenant, they may provide a means to effectively establish new covenants in Trubunals that restrict the formation of new covenants. For this reason, there are probably Peripheral Code rulings discouraging or forbidding the erection of Chapter Houses in such Tribunals.
