A fictional group of mages which opposes the paradigm-reign of the Technocracy. Currently consists of the Akashic Brotherhood, the Dreamspeakers, the Celestial Chorus, the Cult of Ecstasy, the Euthanatos, the Order of Hermes, the Sons of Ether, the Verbena, and the Virtual Adepts. The Hollow Ones would make a great addition to the Traditions, but the council sees them as the gothic equivelent of bums. See also Mage the Ascension.
