Places of mystical power fascinate the Ordo Dracul, and the covenant is always looking for such areas that might have shifted or escaped their notice. Most other vampires don’t understand why the Dragons wish access to such places, but the Kindred of the Circle of the Crone and sometimes even the Lancea Sanctum have an idea. Wyrm’s Nests, holy ground, nexuses — whatever name one attaches to them, the places hold power. Most vampires aren’t equipped to make use of that power, but those that are shudder to think of the fearsome Dragons and what unholy effects they might wreak in a Dragon’s Nest. Of course, the Ordo Dracul doesn’t consider its efforts unholy per se. The Dragons believe they have the greatest right to places of power because they use them correctly. The Circle of the Crone, the Dragons argue, might be able to conjure some impressive feats, but the Acolytes’ magic is external, affecting (or infecting) the world around them with their Beasts, rather than enacting change from within. The Lancea Sanctum occasionally seeks to capture a Wyrm’s Nest that, to them, feels like sanctified ground, but the Ordo Dracul scoffs at such arrogance. There are much better uses for such sites than mere reverence.
The Ordo Dracul has specific methods and protocols for finding, cataloguing and using the Wyrm’s Nests.
