Sanctuary Structure

In addition to personal experience, you could expect to know the information on this page if you have any of the following lores:

  • GL-Pathi/5

Sanctuary has a seemingly simple and linear structure. It begins with Acolyte and rise to the Grand Mistress. Theoretically, everyone is permitted to request an audience with one of the five Sibyls, but in practice, those who hold lesser titles are met with the priestesses. Although every citizen will be presented to the Sibyl at least once formally after their graduation from the Academy or coming of age.

The Sanctuary does not call themselves "Sanctuary" per se. It is a place. They name the sisterhood "Covenant". Every priestess is a sister of the Covenant. The form of address used within Sanctuary by the sisterhood varies slightly from that used by other Pathians and outsiders:

Position Short Title Form of Address
First Sister the Grand Mistress of the Covenant Our Most Reverend Sister
Second Sister the Second Mistress of the Covenant Very Reverend Sister
Third Sister the Third Mistress of the Covenant Very Reverend Sister
Fourth Sister the Fourth Mistress of the Covenant Very Reverend Sister
Fifth Sister the Fifth Mistress of the Covenant Very Reverend Sister
Priestess1 a sister of Covenant Sister
