The Holocron Center of the Brotherhood is a secure area deep beneath the Dark Hall. It houses the Dark Brotherhood's collection of holocrons and operates in an auxiliary capacity to the Dark Vault of the Shadow Academy. The center is maintained and protected by the Tribune of the Holocrons,his handpicked staff and The Caretakers.

Once a member achieved ‘Knight’ status they are assigned an access code that allows them to enter the Main Hall and “check out” a holocron for study. Knight’s are only authorized to ‘check out’ holocrons that have basic knowledge that are designed to make them yearn for more. Equites will be authorized to ‘check out’ holocrons that concern directly, or indirectly, with the chosen Discipline. Special authorization can be granted should a member need to research a particular subject, which can only be given by a Dark Council member. Elders are allowed to ‘check out’ any of the holocrons that are present in the Hall, with the exception of the holocrons of most importance. The Grand Master, and the Deputy Grand Master, are free to roam the Hall and access the holocrons of most importance in the secluded backroom that only they, and the Caretakers have access to.

Foyer

Spanning fifteen meters in diameter, the entryway into the Main Hall is completely dark, only a single beam of light illuminates an access terminal fixated in the middle of the room. There are only two doors into and out of the rotunda; the turbolift doors, and the three meter high double doors opposite that lead into the Main Hall. To venture on into the Main Hall, you must enter your access code that you were given when you attained ‘Knight’ status. Knockout gas will flood the room should the wrong access code be entered into the terminal.

Main Hall

The main hall houses the bulk of the Brotherhood’s holocron possession. This massive room is divided into three open sections, separated by floor to ceiling columns. In between every other column in the row is a holocron suspended by a miniature repulsorlift. Each section of the room is dedicated one of the Paths, with pedestals evenly spaced along each section that held holocrons of the specific Path. The Caretakers randomly switch out and shuffle around all holocrons that are not currently being studied as a precaution to members “borrowing” them for a time.
