The Stonehenge Tribunal in the Saga of Stranggore is somewhat as described in Chapter 10 of Heirs to Merlin, but some covenants have been added and others have been changed.
Covenants
The Stonehenge Tribunal has a lot of small covenants. There is not a lot of competition for resources among them because we've been playing Ars Magica a long time and think stories about squabbling over vis are passée.
- Aquae Sulis is a covenant of Roman revivalists in the ruins of a Roman spa at Bath
- Blackthorn is a large Merinita covenant whose members are affiliated with the dark fae
- Burnham is much as it is described in Heirs to Merlin
- Cad Gadu is physically much as it is described in Heirs to Merlin, but has 9 members
- Cercle Cassé is a covenant of three Tremere magi dedicated to fighting diabolism
- The Crimson Brotherhood is a predominantly Tytalus covenant of trouble-makers fighting Norman rule
- Schola Pythagoranis is much as it is described in Heirs to Merlin, but is a bit bigger and includes some learned magicians from Ex Miscellanea
- Stormwatch, in Cumbria, has 3 Flambeau weather-witches. Torkel was apprenticed there.
- Ungulus is much as it is described in Heirs to Merlin
- Voluntas is much as it is described in Heirs to Merlin
Less Detailed Covenants
We are still developing the concept and details for the following:
- a large Tremere covenant as mentioned on page 115 of Houses of Hermes: True Lineages, located in Bedfordshire
- There is at least one covenant in London itself
- The covenant where Godwyn was apprenticed, in Yorkshire
Wild Card Covenants
Each storyguide has one or two covenants that are "wild cards," to be used as plot devices and kept mysterious to the other storyguides.
- Andrew G. has the Crimson Brotherhood and Cercle Cassé
Eremites
The Stonehenge Tribunal has a large number of magi living as eremites (without a covenant). There are about 40 of them in all, comprising more than a third of the Hermetic population. The plurality of these are magi Ex Miscellanea; Houses Bjornaer, Jerbiton, and Merinita are also well represented among the solitary magi.
Most of the eremites avoid Tribunal meetings and political matters, but there are a few exceptions.
