Psijic Order Lore
Masters of Mysticism
Ancient and mysterious scholars, it is said the Psijic Order were the first in Tamriel to study the secrets of Mysticism or the “Old Ways". This study has allowed the Order to develop knowledge and power not found anywhere else in Tamriel, and there are rumors that they have obtained the ability to manipulate the flow of time itself.
“The Psijic Order have stated that they are primarily interested in learning the fundamental basics of the world and universe, what holds it together, and what could threaten it," explains Lawrence Schick, The Elder Scrolls Online's Loremaster. “They are dedicated to knowledge and study for its own ends, and to them, knowledge is its own reward."
For centuries, the Psijic Order conducted their studies in seclusion on their island home of Artaeum. Located just south of Summerset, it was there within the ancient halls of Ceporah Tower (a massive structure that pre-dates even the arrival of the Ancient Elves) that they explored the mysteries of the universe, rarely leaving their island home.
It is no secret that the Order is loath to share their learnings beyond Artaeum, and while throughout history some members were said to be found in Tamriel, they kept the majority of their knowledge to themselves.
“Unlike the Mages Guild, the Psijics have little interest in teaching anybody anything, and they are not interested in taking an active role in Tamriel," explains Lawrence. “When they did engage in the world, it was only in an advisory capacity, and they withdrew even from that limited role when they disappeared."
Even within the Order itself, this self-seclusion and (some might say selfish) hoarding of knowledge was not without its critics. The great mage Vanus Galerion, reportedly believing the Order's knowledge of spellcasting should be shared with all of Tamriel, left to create the Mages Guild, an organization founded on the principle of the sharing and propagating magical knowledge.
The Vanishing Island
The reason is unknown, but around 350 years ago, the island of Artaeum simply vanished, taking the Psijics and their secrets with them. To where or even when they went is a mystery, but for centuries, the Psijic Order was no longer a part of Tamriel.
It is only upon the Queen's decree and the opening of Summerset's borders to foreigners that the Psijics have appeared to return, although the island itself remains hidden. The return of the Psijic Order's agents to Tamriel, while historic, is also troubling, for their purposes remain obscured. Why did they leave? Why have they returned? And what is their connection to the shadowy conspiracy that now threatens the home of the High Elves?
There's no telling what role the Order will have in shaping the future of Tamriel, but whatever their plans may be, as you explore Summerset, you'll become a key part of their current efforts, and even get the chance to become a member yourself.
“The Psijic Order admits you as a special case and allows you to come to Artaeum, wherever it is they've taken it to," says Lawrence. “Usually, they're not particularly interested in sharing their knowledge with anybody outside the Order unless they prove themselves worthy or can meet them on an equal basis."
This page says "Complete the Summerset Zone questline to unlock the Psijic Order questline", but you only need to complete the first quest of Summerset's zone story.
