Silent Wayfarer
This is my spirit animal
[QUOTE="Inquisitor Muhaha]But now I'm at a problem point that y'all might be able to help with. I have no idea how the societies of the world function. No idea where a good place to be from would be. I'm questioning whether or not the Blessed Isle would be good for a Sidereal. Anyone got ideas/assistance?

Basically, Sidereals, to the world at large, do not exist. Sidereal Anathema do not exist. The people who are most likely to know they exist are ancient gods (most of whom have been bought out/cowed by the Bronzies), ancient Lunars (who usually chill out in the Wyld or their own domains and are not likely to tell anyone who isn't an ancient about the Sids) and Gold Faction-allied Solars (who have been fed the usual pack of lies about how "we're actually your friends and the Bronzies are jerks").
In the Realm, some Sidereals run the Heptagram, some of them are grandmasters in the Immaculate High Temple (I forgot the exact name), but ALL of them operate under resplendent destiny disguises, all of them are under strict orders not to reveal their presence unless mission requirements call for it, and all of them will eliminate anyone who discovers their true identities. They typically do this by bringing them into the conspiracy with promises of money and power, or using Celestial Circle Sorcery to bind them to secrecy (DBs cannot break this magic, for the most part).
If your guy is a newly trained Sidereal, he would not hold a position of power on the Blessed Isle; it's the key to the Bronzies controlling the Scarlet Empire. He could, however, be attached to a senior Sid on the BI who shows him the ropes and how to be properly cautious around Essence users. Like Esbilon says, Sids can be called on to go anywhere and this can take them away from their cover identities (it usually depends on convention; if you're part of the Convention on Lunar God Monsters and Laertes eats a town in the Threshold, there you go).
But yes, it is up to Almighty ST to determine the final disposition of your chap. That said, if I played a Sid, I would probably be humble, effusive, and use lethal overdoses of politeness on people around me. (To a fat DB: "Surely even Cathak Cainan would fade into your mighty shadow.")
