Consilium Moros Silver Ladder

Appearance

5'11", Fair-skinned and thin, Truce does not appear to get out much, choosing instead to pursue more studious endeavors. He appears as a typical college student, wearing button up shirts, slacks, and a sports coat at times. His hair is dark brown and wavy, his eyes hazel.

History

Age twenty-five at the time of his arrival in Sacramento, it is known that Truce came from Arizona before moving here. He confesses to having spent seven years under the guidance of a Mentor and remaining Independent of any Order affiliation, though it is known that his Mentor is affiliated with the Mysterium. He came accompanied by a Ghost named Chelsea who has a connection to his past, perhaps even before his own Awakening. He is known to be a student of Psychology and admits to taking classes at a local college to earn his Masters Degree.

Since Arrival

Arriving to a city in chaos and turmoil, Truce tries to get his bearings along with several others who have just come into the city. Threats from Banishers, echoes of Scelesti plots, and infighting among the Orders do not ease Truce's mind. One of his first encounters with the Consilium presence begins with the death of a Sleeper. Investigating him and the ghosts that linger, Truce traces a murder back to a man named Bishop, a member of the Guardian of the Veil in the city. He discovers that Chelsea is one of many victims that were claimed by the Scelesti that moved through the area years ago that Bishop had exposed.

At the Consilium gatherings, Truce is quick to meet those he needs to. He is encouraged to join not only an Order, but a Cabal during his stay in the city. It isn't long before he joins forces with a pair of newly arrived Apostates, Gyges & Damascus, and a pair of Libertines, Crowley & Einstein. But their union is overshadowed when the Apostates are invited to a meeting with notable Guardians, Nous & Zodiac. An argument breaks out among the group and they separate on less than friendly terms. Yet Gyges's efforts are quick to patch up their differences and regard the incident as water under the bridge. Thus Temoins du Sud is formed.

Still without an Order, Truce begins to look into membership with the Mysterium & Silver Ladder to determine a suitable place for him to assist the efforts of the Pentacle. He discovers that his Councilor, Mace, is in need of assistance investigating a Ghost that has been haunting an area outside Sac-U. And after meeting with a member of the Mysterium, Miach, and of the Silver Ladder, Pepper, he ultimately makes the decision to join the Silver Ladder and help bring the Consilium back to order. As such, his membership among their Order and within a Cabal gives him eligibility to fulfill the Provost position when his Path gathers to meet.

Not long after, Councilor Mace expresses a distaste for the Councilor position and hands it off to Truce, making him the Moros Councilor. He steps into his new role, still uncertain and inexperienced in matter of Awakened politics. Around the same time, Gyges and Damascus depart, likely fed up with the petty squabbling within the Awakened society and wary of the Banisher presence that has taken residence at Sacramento University.

Getting a tip from a locally operating Sleepwalker, he leads the remaining members of Temoins du Sud into investigating the Sac-U Library and discover a forbidden grimoire before being ambushed by Banishers. The brief exchange gives them insight into the Banisher identities and the misguided magics that they hoard.

In the wake of an incident with an Abyss-touched recording and a commune of artists, Truce rescues two Sleepwalkers from certain death and begins his first Cryptopoly, Death's Door, in order to establish influence among the Sleeper community.
