Knowledge is power, so the adage goes. To the adepts of the Priory,
this is a literal truth as they have been curating their knowledge of
Mythos for generations. It is the power by which humanity will be saved
from the predations of the Old Ones.
Over the millennia, shamans,
soothsayers, skalds and scholars held the keys to the power of Mythos
but were unaware of its greater purpose. Those fortunate few used it
sparingly and merely glimpsed behind the curtain to barely retain their
sanity. As humanity became increasingly arrogant in their own manifest
destiny, this precious lore of Mythos was discarded in favour of
technology, and the illusion of safety created by our increasingly
modern world. So the Priory have been charged by their mysterious
coordinator Madame Adrestia to remember the old dangers that still lurk
in the shadows and to fight it at every turn.
The Priory is an
ancient institution with its members operating around the globe in
roaming self-contained groups known as Cells. Contact between Cells is
almost unheard of and membership and recruitment to each Cell is the
responsibility of each Cell Leader. Professor Zachary Lazarus has led
his Cell for over a decade. An expert in the arcane and occult, it is
Lazarus who receives the telephone calls from the enigmatic Madame
Adrestia, to plan the Lazarus Cell's next mission. Lazarus has a
formidable will and distinctly Bohemian tastes, often found talking in
earnest to his cat Zeus. More curious is that the creature seems to
understand the detail of the Professor's discussion and obliges with
various acts of infiltration and observation for the Priory.
The
anarchist-archaeologist Abigail Halsey is an invaluable member of the
Lazarus Cell and her discoveries and research are often instrumental in
overcoming many of the challenges they face. It was Abigail who
discovered the journal of Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel and the Mythos
secrets for creating the Golem Maharal. This fifteen-foot tall animated
clay monstrosity provides the muscle for the Lazarus Cell on their
missions. What Maharal lacks in subtlety it more than made up for with
brute force!
Bertie Smythe was a decorated pilot over the Western
Front when a dawn encounter in the clouds left him a changed man. He
will not speak of what he saw that early morning, nor of the fate of his
squadron. Wielding a flamethrower, it is hard liquor and endless
cigarettes that fuels his determination to right this unspoken
injustice. Weapons such as Bertie's require constant maintenance, as
does much of the Cell's equipment. Fortunately, they can rely on the
mechanically minded Kitty Page, the most recent recruit to the Cell.
Kitty joined the Cell after their mission in Providence against the Path
of Chronozon. Though still learning much of their war against the fell
powers, Kitty is comforted that their mortal adversaries seem to be as
susceptible to bullets and burning as everyone else in the Cell is,
except Maharal of course.
