Ether Engineers constitute almost a separate Convention, a faction of Iteration X that sets itself apart somewhat from the rest of the Convention.

The Technites of the Sons of Ether are more properly members of the Electrodyne Engineers that splintered off of the group when they jumped ship in 1904. Some have even suggested that the Craftmasons, original founders of the Order of Reason, were influenced by the Order of Hermes this may or may not be the case, but there is a certain level of Hermeticness that some say they see among the Technocracy, and you never know.įavored Conventions: Iteration X, "Ether Engineers" subconvention Void Engineers The lure of the Technocracy, its money and its strict disciplinary basis, has proved irresistible to many Hermetic magi. When Nephandic taint is suspected, these ex-Council magi are the first that get checked out.įavored Conventions: New World Order, Syndicate The big problem is that many of them (of those who have joined freely), though they pay lip service to the Euthanatos ideal even among the Technocracy, are sadists of a variety that only the NWO can stomach. Many NWO enforcers are former Euthanatos, and more than a few of the Men in Black are believed to have a respectable level of training in Entropy magicks. Not widely accepted, the Euthanatos Technites are considered a dangerously unstable factor. Their primary function in the Technocracy is to help with shoring up the Gauntlet, and they are generally considered a convenience more than truly equal members of the Union. The Ecstatic mages who have joined the Technocracy tend to be the ones who are used as expendables.įavored Conventions: Void Engineers, New World Order The Technites of Dreamspeaker origin are considered a true abomination among Dreamspeakers, and it is rare that a Dreamspeaker will allow one of theirs turned to the Technocracy to get away with their lives. Few go reluctantly the closeness of the two has existed for a long time and they are truly two sides of one coin.įavored Conventions: Progenitors, Syndicate Choristers that turn to the Technocracy are steered towards the NWO, the part of the Technocracy where missionaries are most welcome. The religions of the world have occasionally turned into battlegrounds between magi, and the Celestial Chorus and the New World Order have more often than not been the parties involved. Ex-Akashics in fact constitute the near-entirety of the Syndicate membership of China and Vietnam, and a significant fraction of that in Japan.

The influx of money into southeast Asia and Japan since WWII has vastly increased the influence of the Syndicate in the area, and many Akashic Brothers have left behind the Brotherhood for the seduction of money and power.

They are no more evil than the Technocracy at large (a somewhat variable factor).įavored Conventions: Syndicate, Iteration X They are rather unlike the barabbi of the Nephandi. They have their own cliques based on their former Traditions, and many are members. By Brian Connors ranks of the Technocracy contain many members who are former Tradition magi.
