Tomes of Magick: Halls of the Arcanum

Tomes of Magick: Halls of the Arcanum

Ascension’s Right Hand was all shotguns and robots in dive bars, but maybe some brandy in a high-leather chair while discussion psychic phenomena or an ether frolic after some reading about vampyres*? If this sounds more your speed, get ready for the intrigue, investigation and interior design in Halls of the Arcanum. Adam and Terry guide you through the operations of the Arcanum, a secretive mortal research organization from the London Foundation House to the lodges dedicated to finding Damcar, secret city of Arabia. Just don’t get caught in the war between the White Priests and the Red Priests….that is if there is a war.

* Mage: The Podcast strongly supports the use of dedicated drivers. Consume responsibly and in accordance with local laws and paradigms.

Tomes of Magick: Verbena

Among the Traditions, the Verbena most understand the cycles of power of sacrifices required to keep them going. The Verbena also may know best the sting of the Inquisition and what was lost at the end of the Mythic Ages but the wheel turns and what was old is new again.  Listen in as Adam and Terry talk about where the Verbena got their start, their understanding of the founding cosmology of the World of Darkness, and how little they’ve changed over time.

Top 5 Books to Run A Mage: The Ascension Chronicle

Top 5 Books to Run A Mage: The Ascension Chronicle

So which Mage: The Ascension books actually earn their keep when you’re trying to get a Chronicle off the ground?

Mark Hope and Adam Simpson go through the major editions of the core rules, then start pulling the books they keep coming back to—the ones that help with the Umbra, antagonists, Storytelling, Tradition culture, technomagic, Technocratic games, bygones, and the inevitable question of what the hell a Sphere effect is supposed to do.

They agree on Beyond the Barriers: The Book of Worlds and the first-edition The Book of Madness. After that, things split. Same game, same shelf, two very different ideas about what a Chronicle needs before the trouble starts.

Show Notes

Mark Hope’s Top Five:

  1. Beyond the Barriers: The Book of Worlds
  2. The Book of Madness
  3. Guide to the Traditions
  4. Guide to the Technocracy
  5. How Do You DO That
  6. Bonus Book: Mage Translation Guide

Adam Simpson’s Top Five:

  1. Beyond the Barriers: The Book of Worlds
  2. The Book of Madness
  3. Technomancer’s Toybox
  4. Book of Mirrors: Mage Storytellers Handbook
  5. The Bygone Bestiary
  6. Bonus Book: Book of Crafts: Whispers of Dissent

Join us again next Sunday for the first installment of our segment, Mage Chronicles. Panos V Skordas will talk about his Mage chronicle, Ahriman Chronicles: The Vile nature of an Ascension War.
