CLANS, FAMILIES & ORGANIZATIONS
Log Comm | Network Comm | OOC Comm | Navigation


While Secret Societies might be defined by certain commonalities, in truth just about all of them are heavily fragmented. From the various guilds and companies of the Rune Guard to the Vampire clans, each Secret Society hosts within it a number of disparate groups. This page tracks all player-created and game-revealed divisions within the various Secret Societies, and the PC members within them.

CANDLE SCHOOLS
Candles typically congregate in schools around a singular master who imparts their knowledge onto their students. Candle Schools often manifest their powers in similar ways.

Murakumo Organisation
Members: Emille

CONTRACTED COVEN
Those Contracted under the same Daemon often form covens which offer safe haven against Hunters and ways for them to hone their Daemon-granted powers together.

HUNTER CLANS
Some Hunters form larger clans, working together to achieve their goals. These hunters typically focus on dealing with specific types of supernatural threats such as Vampire Hunters or Mage Hunters.

The Belmont Clan
Members: Kokoro Belmont

Diogenes Club
Members: "Arthur Bell"/Sherlock Holmes

The Silver Chain

LYCANTHROPE CLANS
Lycanthropes typically develop their own clans based on the kind of affliction, werewolves congregating in one clan and werebears in another. Lycanthropic afflictions that manifest similarly often can be treated and controlled in similar fashions, and these clans allow Lycanthropes to master their curse.

Gongenzaka Steadfast Dojo

MAGE FAMILIES
With Magic often passed through bloodline, Mages are typically devoted to their family lineage, with the family art being passed down from generation to generation and zealously guarded from outsiders.

Aegle Family

Farkas Szívű Társadalom

House Cromwell
Members: Urtz Cromwell

House Gehring
Members: Ekkehardt Gehring

Rising Sun Coalition
Members: Goro Akechi

RUNE GUARD COMPANIES
Rune Guard companies might be groups of fighters or more mercantile ventures, but either way Rune Guard tend to group together into larger organized forces with their own specialties and place within the Secret Societies.

Autobots

Quill
Members: Gustav

TAMER COVENS
Tamers are among the least discriminating of Secret Society members, and usually group together with like-minded Tamers and focus on mastering their art together.

VAMPIRE CLANS
Vampires are extremely clan and status focused, with the bloodlines and generational status tracked with exquisite detail. Sub-castes within each particular clan are quite common.

Mage Family

[personal profile] spelleton 2019-01-05 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
Group Name: House Gehring
Group Description: A family of mages from Germany who became disgusted and disillusioned by the vicious power politics of wider mage society after surviving a bloody civil war. They abandoned their social standing and their former holdings, choosing instead to move into the uncharted wilds of the Outlands in order to use their powers for something more productive. They dedicated themselves to studying the Outlands, preparing for the coming Nightfall, and eliminating threats to innocent life wherever they could.

House Gehring's mages are most often known for their skill in healing and cursebreaking. They lend their support to hunter groups and runeguard companies they deem suitable for alliance, but they have no qualms with allying with - or offering protection to - the Outlands' less favoured inhabitants if they believe an injustice is being done.

When not fighting to make the Outlands safer at every turn, they're rumored to use their knowledge of mage families and other Outlands societies to monitor and ruthlessly dispatch key members who they deem as too corrupt or too cruel to let live. But it's just a rumor, probably.
