Both are located on either side of the main corridor. Entering the middle door of the east wing, one comes to the Technological Research Lab, headed by one Aria Kane. Here, the latest research in cybernetics, magical technology and symbol magic is conducted to create magical weaponry, gadgets and vehicles for the protection and prosperity of Britain and its mages. This lab is quite large, and contains testing rooms suitable for the use of highly dangerous weaponry and technology, and is home to some of the most intelligent minds in Britain.The second Research Lab is used for Medical research, and is in equal parts a medical bay. Here, the Santuary’s doctors operate on the sick, as well as diagnose any unusual illnesses mages may suffer from. Research is conducted on experimental treatments for both physical and mental illnesses, and is well equipped to deal with a large number of patients at a time. This Lab is situated on the west wing, directly opposite to the Tech Labs. The two labs are in constant communication, and collaborate together on various projects.ArmouryThe Armoury, like the Cleaver barracks, is situated below the main floor of the sanctuary. This room is heavily guarded by Cleavers, and contains a range of weapons used by cleavers and sanctuary operatives. It is also used to store useful items created in the Tech Lab. This room is home to a number of armoured cars, and, supposedly, a tank. Access to this area is only granted to trusted sanctuary operatives and Cleavers. Ops Room The Ops room is located at the far end of the main corridor of the sanctuary. At the centre of the room is a round table, where the leaders of the sanctuary, including the Prime Detective and Cleaver General, meet to discuss matters concerning the Sanctuary. Sanctuary operatives come here in search of work. This room looks like a room that might be found at The Pentagon, the far wall contains a large number of screens and panels with various purposes. The table at which the sanctuary leaders sit at has a holographic projector installed in it, when not being used, this projector displays an image of the globe.Cleaver BarracksAs already mentioned, the Cleaver Barracks is located beneath the main corridor of the Sanctuary. This contains living quarters for Cleavers, as well as a training room, and briefing room. Beyond the barracks is the gaol, meaning that anyone who wishes to escape the sanctuary, must first get through a small army of Cleavers.____________________________________________________________________________The Sanctuary is located below the Supreme Court in London. It is accessed through one of the doors near the corner of the building, thought to be a storage closet. Once inside this room, a Mage will be met by the administrator, who will question newcomers and allow returning visitors inside. The Sanctuary is accessed through an elevator inside this room, and has two floors. The first floor contains what is known as the main corridor. This is a wide and long corridor with luminous panelled walls. These panels change in colour ranging from brilliant whites to deep reds. The floor is comprised of dark granite panels. Various corridors jut out from the main one, leading to the Research Labs, living quarters, toilets and Repository. Many of the Sanctuary’s detectives and resident mercenaries live within the walls of the compound, allowing for an increase in security during times of attack. At the far end of the corridor, there is a small flight of stairs which leads down to the Ops room. In the Ops room, there are stairs which lead up to the Grand Mage and Elders bedrooms. These are customised specifically to suit their dweller's needs.The Repository is a large room to the right of the main corridor, and contains a range of old magical books and artefacts. It is guarded by its Artificer, who welcomes visitors to learn of Britain's magical history.The elevator can reach a lower level, and once you step out of the elevator you will find yourself in a vast room which contains the Cleaver's training room, followed by their living quarters, and then the Gaol. This floor contains several larger elevators which are used to deploy Cleavers in times of emergency.Above the Santuary, around the Supreme Court building, the Sanctuary has purchased a number of houses for the use of Sanctuary staff, ambassadors and visiting diplomats. These houses are well furnished and equipped with a vast array of magical gadgets designed by Aria Kane and her team.____________________________________________________________________________The British Sanctuary started as nothing more than a little Mage's guild in the heart of London in the 1600's. It was an organisation which safeguarded the secrets of magic from mortals, and protected British Mages. They operated out of a large house in the city. The work they did was significant, in that they greatly reduced the amount of illegal magic operations being carried out in the area. They eventually evolved to a sanctuary, laying out laws for mages countrywide.Unfortunately, in 1666, when the sanctuary was really beginning to flourish, it was destroyed in the Great Fire of London. For a time, magical crime ran rampant in the nation, and after a year, another sanctuary had been set up outside the city. However, Wales and Scotland now wished to have their own respective sanctuaries. This led to conflict that nearly caused a Mage Civil war. Luckily, the issue was solved through diplomacy, and the sanctuary grew stronger from their own recovery. But hostilities remained for many years to come.The Sanctuary moved back into London in the 1700's, greatly benefitting from the Industrial Revolution. This allowed them to build a larger headquarters, and spread their influence over the three nations. The Sanctuary decided to stay out of foreign affairs, not bothering to back Britain in America, as their relations with the American sanctuary were quite strong. The next two hundred years went relatively well for Britain, and their Sanctuary remained well-respected within the international community.This all ended in the early 1900's, when the Grand Mage was outed as a former supporter of Mevolent who'd been funding the local Faceless One churches. This led to uproar in England, and to escalate matters, the Grand Mage was assassinated. Once again civil war became a serious threat. For a time there was great political instability. Grand Mages came and went, whether that was through numerous assassinations, coups or blackmails. This, coupled with the fact that Britain was not a Cradle of Magic, resulted in its power being dwarfed in comparison with its standing in the mortal world. It was then that Arabella Sovereign stepped in as Grand Mage. People were wary of her as she was young. Arabella suggested that Scotland Wales and England should each vote for a member of the Council of Elders from their country. People seemed to like this idea, and tensions simmered somewhat. Attempts were made on the Grand Mage’s life, but her introduction of new policies and an emphasis on technology had British mages hopeful for the future; something that hadn’t been see in almost two decades.While in power, Arabella began to put an emphasis on new-age tech, and modernising the sanctuary. This led to the setting up of a new Sanctuary underneath the Supreme Court building. There are still renovations being made to the Sanctuary to this day. Now, the sanctuary focuses on creating new technology to make this lives of mages safer and more pleasant. The Council of Elders wishes to maintain a balance of power across the world, and boost Britain’s standing amongst other Sanctuaries.
