Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Throughout the ages, many different magical cultures have developed on Earth. Nine of these mystical groups eventually banded together to form what loose organization?

Answer: The Traditions

Not all of the original founders of the Traditions are still members. Some, such as the Solificati and the Ahl-i-Batin, have either melded with other traditions or have broken off from the council entirely.

2. Founded during the Renaissance and based upon scientific principle and rational thought, which of the following is considered to be the predecessor of the modern Technocracy?

Answer: The Order of Reason

The Order of Reason is the Renaissance-era group that eventually gave rise to the modern Technocratic Union. The Difference Engineers were a part of the Technocracy who broke away after WW2 to join the Traditions, and became the Virtual Adepts. The Order of Hermes is one of the founding groups of the Traditions.

The Priory of Sion, a pseduo-fictional society described in popular literature, plays no role in Mage: the Ascension.

3. This stuff - which comprises all matter and energy and forms the basis of all existence - is also known as the 'Fifth Element.'

Answer: Quintessence

During the Dark Ages, quintessence was sometimes referred to as 'vis.'

4. The Sons of Ether specialize in which of the following Spheres of magic?

Answer: Matter

Once known as the Electrodyne Engineers, this group of visionary scientists eventually broke away from the Technocracy and joined with the Traditions. Like the Virtual Adepts, they are considered technomancers.

5. Madness, Clarity, and Jhor are debilitating mental conditions brought on by what form of psychic trauma?

Answer: Quiet

Quiet can be induced by Paradox backlashes as well as by profound psychic assault.

6. What three forces make up the Metaphysic Trinity?

Answer: Dynamism, Stasis, and Entropy

Peter, Paul, and Mary sang the classic 1960s folk hit, "Puff the Magic Dragon."

7. Which Tradition claims to be descended from primordial beings of immense power known as the Wyck?

Answer: Verbena

Although the Wyck have been gone for a very long time, their legacy lives on in the pagan lore of the Verbena witches.

8. Which Tradition was once known as the Seers of Chronos?

Answer: The Cult of Ecstasy

These mages, also called Ecstatics, use hedonistic methods to achieve a state of temporal transcendence. Their command of the sphere of Time is unrivaled among the other Traditions.

9. Mages who have gone insane are generally referred to as?

Answer: Marauders

Marauders are very dangerous, for they usually wield tremendous powers and are no longer hindered by the effects of Paradox.

10. The age-old conflict between the Traditions and the Technocracy is popularly known as what?

Answer: The Ascension War

Some may say that the Ascension War is over, and that the Traditions have lost, but the fight goes on. As long as people continue to open their eyes and Awaken, perhaps the war will never really be lost. I hope you enjoyed this quiz. Thank you for playing!
