Cercle Cassée is a young Tremere covenant in Sussex. It began as an outpost of the covenant of Amici Britanniae, established and led by the magus Hubert de Barbes for the specific purpose of rooting out a particularly large and insidious ring of diabolists. When the devil-worshipers were finally defeated, de Barbes chose to convert his headquarters into a permanent covenant. He named it "the Broken Ring" (in Norman French, rather than Latin) in honor of his victory.
Cercle Cassée is the youngest covenant in the Stonehenge Tribunal. It was established as satellite of Amici Britanniae in 1171 and became an independent covenant in 1182.
Special Purpose
Cercle Cassée is specifically dedicated to fighting diabolism in the Stonehenge Tribunal. This is written into its charter and has been witnessed by the Quaesitores.
While all magi of the Tribunal acknowledge the covenant's achievement in ridding England of a dangerous and particularly tenacious evil, now that the ring has been eradicated, some doubt the need for continued vigilance.
Reputations
- Demon hunters 4 (Hermetic)
- Fraternizes with Nobles 2 (Hermetic)
Members
Cercle Cassée is home to four Tremere magi:
- Hubert de Barbes, a Norman French magus who hunts demons and rubs elbows with English nobles
- Constance, Hubert's young filia
- Priscus, Hubert's brother-in-arms
- Philip, Priscus's apprentice
Relations
Within two years of its founding, Cercle Cassée began to grow apart from its parent covenant. The reasons for the rift are no doubt partly personal: Hubert de Barbes is a demanding magus whom many find abrasive. There is apparently some bad blood between Cercle Cassée and Amici Britanniae over the latter's level of support for the campaign against the diabolists.
The rest of the Tribunal also regards Cercle Cassée with some trepidation. While the covenant's goals are laudable and its achievement undisputed, its methods are somewhat questionable. Lacking strong Hermetic support for his campaign, de Barbes sought allies among the Norman nobility and the Church. It has not escaped the Tribunal's notice that these mundane allies gained land and influence when their rivals were exposed and executed as diabolists. de Barbes is also known to have killed hedge wizards he accused of diabolism, which has earned him the anger of Cad Gadu.
