The House of Keys is a long-standing Hermetic chapter house located along Greek Row at the university campus — a discreet yet vital anchor for the Awakened within academia’s shadow. Though originally founded by the Order of Hermes as far back as the 1920's, the House has since broadened its purpose, serving as a neutral sanctuary for members of the Nine Traditions, Tradition-friendly sorcerers, and bygones seeking refuge or study among the initiated.
Shielded by a subtle perceptual field (Arcane), the property remains invisible to Sleepers, revealing itself only to those whose senses have been opened to the Mysteries. Within its walls, new arrivals find guidance, resources, and community under the oversight of a Caretaker, appointed by the local Traditions Council. The House acts as both residence and crossroads — a place for research, collaboration, and the quiet defense of Awakened ideals in a world that increasingly forgets them.
