Occult Research Committee

Background info:

The Occult Research Committee is a Sorcery Association located somewhere in Columbia. It mainly serves as a base of operations for Lucius and his companions. The Committee was only recently established after Lucius' fight with the bearers of fate. Since they are new to the scene, information on the group and its members are scares. Publicly, the Committee, like all associations, investigate supernatural events in the world. However, privately, the Committee acts as a safe haven for those negatively affected by the magical world, while also training aspiring magicians. They recruit all sorts of talent and its ranks not only including powerful magicians but also:

-Scientists who focus purely on research of magic
-People who seek revenge against magical entities for deaths of relatives
-Street hoodlums
- Con artists
- Thieves

As long as they knew the existence of magic, even ordinary citizens are included. This was why their levels of competency and expertise were extremely varied. The Committee also seems to function as a Freelancer group accepting requests from other associations. While Lucius serves as its leader and founder, Derek handles most administrative duties.
