Iberus Collective

The Iberus Collective is a an organization dedicated to the search, preservation, and therefore documentation of all manner of information pertaining to fields scholarly study. Their secondary and less-public mission is to use said knowledge against corruption and tyranny to ensure the freedom of all people, no matter their nationality or lineage. The Collective is centered in the city of Llaughedhe within the Lasmerian Republic, with whom they are closely allied, though there are a number of libraries, archives, and reformatories all across Xaekla. While the libraries are avalible to the public, there are a number of historical documents that have been deemed dangerous for the public and are contained within the archives only avalible for certain personnel of a higher rank within the Collective.

There are many exusians that the Iberus Collective pays homage to for a variety of reasons with the primary exusian of the organization being Lasiros, the Book Keeper. Others are Haimeia of the weave, for those of the arcane discipline, and Aeras, a symbol of freedom.
