Servorum Dei (Servants of God) is a spring Covenant of newly-sworn Magi based in the town of Olmutz in Moravia. The Magi - three Gifted practitioners of Holy Magic, and three ungifted hedge wizards with holy methods and powers - were all sworn to the code after it was discovered that the Gifted ones had been illegally taught the parma magica. Their teacher, Fabianus Ex Miscellania, was subsequently marched by a Tribunal.
Physically, the Covenant is located in the basement of the Archdeaconry of St Peters (the old Cathedral), and has a Divine Aura of 4. It is protected by a level 20 Aegis of the Hearth.
The Covenant runs a church school and has access to several relics.
Magi of Sevorum Dei
The coenobium consists of Ungifted Hedge Wizards with Divine powers, and Gifted Magi who have been taught Holy Magic. The Holy Magi are guided by Archeacon Petrus, who is Ungifted. This is likely to cause tension with its new member.
