Strong and Weak Spheres/Arcana in the Mage the Awakening system for the Nine Traditions , the Technocratic Union, and the Disparates (Awakening to Ascension pt 3)
Strong and Weak Spheres/Arcana in the Mage the Awakening system for the Nine Traditions , the Technocratic Union, and the Disparates:
Here, I put forth possible strong Arcana and weak Arcana associated with each of these groups, although they can certainly vary, along with a very short explanation of why, from their perspective. This is definitely a WIP, and I'd appreciate feedback.:)
*updated*
Akashic Brotherhood/Akashayana Mind, Life/ Matter
Focused on the mind and body, they neglect base material things.
Celestial Chorus Prime, Spirit/ Time
Truth is in faith in the Divine Will. Be present when and where you are. Trust the Divine plan for the future.
Cult of Ecstasy/ the Sahajiya Time, Mind/ Spirit
The soul is the mind and is free in time. 'Spirit' is a distraction from enlightenment.
Dreamspeakers/Kha'Vadi Spirit, Mind/ Prime
We speak to the world and its dreams. We do not meddle with its building blocks.
Euthanatos/Chakravanati Death, Fate/ Forces
We go round and round on the wheel. Fate is our ally. The brutal energies of Forces are . . . unsubtle.
Order of Hermes Forces, Spirit/ Mind
Magick is Will. Magick is Power, in the here and now. Abrogating the Will of another is forbidden.
Society of Ether Matter, Life/ Fate
Science is the way to a better life, through technology and biology. Fate is hokum.
Verbena/Verbenae Life, Forces/ Death
The power of life is ours, and the might of the natural world: fire, lightning, more. To touch death is to risk serving it.
Virtual Adepts/Mercurial Elite Space, Forces/ Life
We're watching. We've got the power. You 'clerics' can handle the healing.
Iteration X Matter, Forces / Mind
Your thoughts are immaterial to the future.
New World Order Mind, Space / Spirit
We see it all. But there is no 'spirit' behind it. Just the mind, in its proper place.
Progenitors Life, Time / Space
We work on new life, hands on.
The Syndicate Fate, Mind / Prime
Hearts and minds...but grab their Fates to really control them.
Void Engineers Spirit, Space / Death
The Truth is out there, and death is a lie.
Ahl-I-Batin Space, Mind/ Death
All is One. Do not trifle with the fates or others, nor meddle with death. That is the dark path.
Bata'a Spirit, Life /Matter
The loa are alive, as we are. Physical things trifle next to matters of spirit.
Children of Knowledge Matter, Prime /Spirit
Alchemy is the fusion of matter and power. Trucking with spirits is a distraction.
Hollow Ones Any
Kopa Loei Any
Ngoma Spirit, Prime/ Time
Commune with the spirits and the power that moves them. To seek to see the past or future directly is to risk reality.
Sisters of Hippolyta Life, Mind/ Fate
No one can escape their Fate. It is hubris to try. Instead, harmonize body and mind to meet it well.
Taftani Matter, Spirit/ Prime
We were given dominion of earth. The source of all things is the realm of the Divine.
Templars Forces, Life/ Fate
Deus Vult. My Fate is God's to decree. But I will wield the weapons he has given me in his name.
Wu Lung Spirit, Forces/ Death
We wield the power of Heaven. To trifle with necromancy is against the Divine Order.
