Cloister

Usually affiliated with Chancels, the Cloisters train trainers and provide the most advanced training levels in some disciplines. Basic training can take place in Chancels and (sometimes) in Great Houses. They also serve as retreats and retirement facillities for Elders and Holders who lay down their duties.
