Sanctum: Temple of the Dawn

An offshoot of the Chosen of Ti-Tsang, the original Japanese Priests of Amaterasu felt disenfranchised in the predominantly Chinese cabal. They practiced their art and religion in solitude for nearly four decades when the internment of Japanese during the Second World War scattered its members. The cabal was reformed fifteen years later under one of the original members and his student, Kami. When his master died in 1970, Kami changed the name and focus of the cabal to be more inclusive and concerned with unity rather than isolation.

The core legacy of the cabal has always been the way of the Perfected Adept.
