The Novgorod Tribunal is the Regional Tribunal covering Scandinavia, Poland, and Russia. It is by far the largest Tribunal geographically, but for the most part it is sparsely populated by both magi and mundanes. It borders on the Rhine and Transylvanian Tribunals, as well as pagan lands to the east. See the Map of Mythic Europe.
Mythic Iceland is also generally considered to be part of the Novgorod Tribunal.

- On the banks of the river Kapsa, in the marshes to the north of the city of Novgorod, lurks a Covenant of young scholars and magicians. After 14 years of battling a series of infernal manifestations, the intrigues of the Sword Brethren, and skirmishes with the local faeries the Covenant of Paparotno has established a learned bastion against the storms approaching from the East. Around them the Novgorod Tribunal decays into chaos, with a wizards march against the rogue covenant Priper Maior now looming. The conflict threatens the interests of Crintera, House Bjornaer and offers Lebensraum to the Rhine Tribunal. As the time of reckonings approaches, the hidden hand of the infernal grows ever stronger....
