The Twelve Anchorites
A highly selective atemporal elite, Anchorites try never to count more than twelve members. The recruitment is usually done by other members agreeing on another member to join their ranks. It is unknown how the Numbers change in case of death of a member. Here is a list of identified ones : Pfenninger is the founder of the group and its de-facto leader. Immaculée Constantin is the second in command According to Marinus, he was around 170 years old. ''Note: due to a probable editing mistake, Elijah d'Arnocq is refered to as the Fifth Anchorite, while Imhoff bears the same number later in the story. Since Elijah seems to have been one of the early recruitments of Pfenninger, we decided to put him to number Four.''
