**The Ivory Keep** is the the seat of the Order of the Ivory Flame within the Commandery of Sanctuary. It is a multi-story building of humble and practical construction. Within it's walls include the Grand Master's room and artefact vault. Previously, the structure stood as the only building within an abandoned fort.

## History

### Founding

After the reclamation of Sanctuary, the Ivory Keep was built up by Members and Knights of the Order of the Ivory Flame. It, along with the docks outside the walls of Sanctuary, is the pride and joy of the Order.

### Present Day

The Ivory Flame gathered in congregation to reaffirm their status and duty in this world, proclaiming a new, reinvigorated purpose to carry on the Supreme Grand Master's legacy. The Order set out on a new campaign at the entrance of the Ivory Keep, leaving behind the Non-Combatants and regular attendants, as well as any member who did not wish to join immediately.

## Rooms

### Grand Master's Room

The Grand Master's room operates as not only the sleeping and private quarters of the Grand Master, but also a place of deep introspective thought and planning for the Order at large. It's lack of imaginative decoration or lavish distraction provides a sufficient area to brood upon the simplicity of life.

### Prayer Hall

The Prayer Hall acts as a place for members of the Order, attendants, and Knights to pray not only to the Holy Light, but also to their Ivory Flame. It is a place to reflect and pray, think and worship. There is Holy Light iconography displayed through banner and stained glass windows, but also Ivory Flame iconography. Several plaques each with a different section of the Creed are displayed throughout the hall.

### Meeting Room

The Meeting Room is a place where the Grand Master and Inner Circle first deliberate on the plan of action for the Order of the Ivory Flame, then welcome in the Council of the Ivory Flame next, and finally in a tertiary stage, the Members and Knights to discuss and debate at large. it is a large room of many pews, and at the front is a large table and several chairs for the members of the Inner Circle.

### Armory

The Armory is the primary site of armaments for the Order of the Ivory Flame. Although there is minor space within the barracks for storing armaments, most Members will find ample space herein to house their gear. It is a large room filled with wall hooks, weapon racks, and mannequins. Armor is stored on the dummies, clothes in large chests, and weapons and shields are stored either on weapon racks or wall hooks. Most is labeled and categorized, allowing for ease of access should their base ever become under siege.

### Artefact Vault

The Artefact Vault is a minor and secret room, accessible only by the Grand Master and Inner Circle. It stores holy artefacts dubbed sacred by the Ivory Flame to be kept safe, or profane artefacts dubbed too dangerous for the world at large, secreted away forever to keep the outside world safe. Currently, Sir Ludwig's the Bold's excess items he did not take with him into the unknown are safe-kept herein.
