Equinox 23

Aka: Equinox Newark

Location: Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire
Classification: Reliquary
Total Number of Staff: 3

Founded in [REDACTED], Equinox 23 serves as a Reliquary-class Cell specialising in the investigation, retrieval, containment and on-going research of paranatural artefacts owned and traded primarily amongst the aristocracy.

Equinox 23 operates out of a small antique shop known as [REDACTED] in the market town of Newark-on-Trent. The shop itself serves as useful cover for [REDACTED] which contains [REDACTED] to the Institute. It also boasts a well-maintained workshop, with members of the Cell specialising in both the restoration of antiques and [REDACTED]

In addition to this, Equinox 23 also includes an estate located in [REDACTED], Scotland and 2,000 acres of business park in [REDACTED], Surrey. Requests to extend Equinox 23’s purview to include 100,000 acres of land in Northumberland remains pending until due-diligence checks into [REDACTED] have concluded.

Despite the high-risk and potentially prolific nature of their investigations, Equinox Newark has quickly established a reputation for being discrete, reliable and able to traverse the social-complexities of the rich and influential without drawing attention to the sensitive nature of their work. This is something for which the Court is thankful for – especially where its goal to maintain secrecy around the paranatural clashes with the public’s fascination with the lives of the rich and influential among high society. 

Major Historical Events

Equinox 23 is a historic designation originally attributed to a Cell which operated in Newark-on-Trent up until 1974. The current Cell has no connection or relation to the previous Cell except and simply inherited their designation number upon formation. 

Rumours persist that the current Cell operated independent of the Institute for some years – during which it purportedly carried out operations which fell outside of the Equinox’s aims and objectives. What information, if any, about how the Cell was integrated into the Institute remains unknown.
