Lámbaird

Founded: 826
Status: Summer

The covenant of Lámbaird (LAWMbeard, meaning “the arm of a bard”) is an old covenant, founded in 826 by Petrifer and Raghallach of House Flambeau. It has been the home of a school of magical combat — The School of Raghallach — since its inception, and has always been a covenant of House Flambeau.

Formed when a Hermetic magus gave shelter to a native magician, Lámbaird has always seen itself as a protector of the traditional ways, and has recently taken up the cause of protecting the Irish from the Norman invaders. Thus far they have avoided severe sanction from the Hibernian Tribunal by claiming they are protecting themselves and their resources, but many suspect them of initiating raids against the Normans.
