History
The Story:
Malcolm Jefferies is rumored to have been a Catholic Priest who was defrocked for consorting with the devil or something equally vile.
He is known to be a Master of both Prime and Life magicks, and knowing how long
The Truth:
Malcolm was ordained a Catholic priest in 1990 and became a member of the Jesuit Order in 1992. He truly enjoyed continuing the works of the great Jesuit priests of old, St Ignatius Loyola and St. Peter Canisius. His scholarly efforts and his easy with speaking made him stand out as a teacher.
Because of his insight and wisdom, he was approached by the Society of Leopold. He was put off by their rabid conviction.
The Vancouver Campus has a small, non-denominational chapel where student can come to light a candle or pray or just think.
There is a little room, just off the chapel, that looks a lot like a closet. At the back of the closet is another door that is not in any of the school's building plans. That door opens onto a small landing and a set of spiral stairs that go down, past the basement levels and end at a rock wall. There is a catch, that when released properly, allows the rock wall to spin, revealing an alcove that rotates and allows entry into Malcolm Jefferies' Sanctum.
The circular chamber is massive. The whole room feels as if it might have been carved from a single block of obsidian. The floor is inlaid with flawless, white marble in the quatrafoil symbol of the Celestial Chorus. Around the perimeter, a ledge of sorts winds all the way around. Its height alternates between about two feet and four feet so that it functions as cushioned benchworks and a series of counter spaces. The counter that is opposite the entrance have a basin carved into it that is used to hold the Water Tass that Malcolm collects on occasion from the school's Prime Node. The two counters that sit half-way around the room from the entrance hold columns of flame that light and heat the space. The ceiling is domed, and in the faint light, the black crystal glints with what appears millions of stars in the night sky.
In the center of the room is a meditation spot of earth that sits at the acoustic focal point of the domed ceiling. This is the spot where Malcolm sits to contemplate and truly worship the One. It is on this spot that Malcolm truly lets the magick of his voice call out the echoes of the Name. Occasionally the sound and power of his voice will reach up and can be heard, ghostly in the chapel above.
