Lost Souls & Midian

You are assigned to an Adytum which acts as your home. The position is an unpaid post but all of your physical needs are met by the Adytum. The Adytum and the surrounding land becomes you home terrain over the course of the year of training. This becomes a tactical advantage when fighting off outsiders. The post has great benefits but restricts your “freedom” to roam. Your post is a minimum of one year after which one can resign their post, extend the post, or apply for a transfer to another Adytum. All “home terrain” bonuses are lost upon resignation of post. In case of transfer the bonuses are lost but regained over the course of 6 months.
