Sanctum: Chinese United Methodist Church
The Chosen are the oldest cabal in the city, having been formed by Chinese immigrants who came to take part in the Gold Rush or work on the Transcontinental Railroad. It has always had extensive ties to Chinatown and similar ethnic communities in Oakland and San Jose, but its members usually keep to themselves. Nonetheless, they have dominated Consilia for the last century and have managed to earn the enmity of the Children of Olorun by seizing their hallow on Washington Street. After the 1906 earthquake, Japanese members split off to form the Priests of Amaterasu, claiming poor treatment at the hands of the Chinese leaders of the cabal.
The two core legacies of the cabal are the Uncrowned Kings, who practice Taoist alchemy to achieve spiritual balance, and the Stone Scribes, who honor the dead and communicate with them by keeping detailed records of their lives and deeds.
