Introductions
The Athenaeum, an ancient term that literally means the Temple of Athena, is used within the pageant to mean the collective wisdom of diviners and wonder workers. It is not so much a place, although there is a tent referred to as such, rather it is a title for the mystics, much like a cabal or coven. Of course, even within St.Calenda's Wandering Pageant, not all of the mystics are truly gifted, some are outright charlatans, while others who had no innate gift of their own chose to bargained with dark powers for otherwise unattainable abilities.
The Five Mystics
 Calixto
|
The Spanish Astrologer is a handsome, kindly seeming, fortuneteller whose true mystical gift lies in the speed with which he can establish trust and how well he can read the emotions of others. {Spaniard} | {Unless Aegon and Rambert come up with a brilliant tactic to save the old astrologer, he is dead after having impaled himself on a tent peg.} -- Aegon |
 Bekhet
|
Lady "Beckett" has been with the pageant for as long as anyone can remember and is of Egyptian origin. She is the most senior and powerful of the mystics, often serving as a mentor to other will-workers and is the longtime companion of Bes the Dwarf. |
 Aleksandre Rivendeneira (Rambert)
|
The Oneiromancer {Spaniard} [An Established Member for about 100 years.] |
 Mordblund
|
Simon Magus or The Thaumturge {Danish} [A New Member, Mordblund joined the pageant in the autumn of 1095.] |
