Sept of Hidden Green

The Caern

Geography
The Melbourne Business District rests on a mild slope, rising primarily to the north and the east. It is a grid work of perpendicular roadways, with small one-way streets running between the major roads on an east-west line.

Bawn
The entire structure of 101 Collins Street makes up the Bawn for the Caern. However, the sept often makes use of the Hyatt Hotel next door, and thus treat the building as an extension of the effective bawn. Owing to it's location in the very heart of the city, the sept keeps a close eye on all goings-on in the Business District as a general rule.

Landmarks
The number of landmarks in the area is too large to list fully. A few of the more prominent ones are Flinders Street Station, the Bourke Street Mall, the Yarra River, the Treasury Gardens, the State Houses of Parliament, The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, the State Library and the Museum of Victoria.

The Sept

Tribal Structure
Being placed in the middle of the city, there is little variation in the make up of the sept. Of the 18 sept members, 11 are Glass Walkers, 6 are Shadow Lords, and there is a single Children of Gaia.
