Example Titles[]
Konstanze Descoteaux-Czartoryska
Formal Title:
Illuminated Architect of the Burning Labyrinth and the Black Pyramid, Parliamentarian and Kogaion of Berlin
Knows 9 dots of Coils. Main Coil is Wyrm and secondary Coil is Ascendant. Is a Sworn of the Mystery and knows Gilded Cage. Is exceptionally proud of being an Architect and puts Gilded Cage twice. Has the functional positions of Parliamentarian and Kogaion.
Informal Title:
Descriptor: Illuminated, Draconic, or Sable
Title: Architect, Parlimentarian or Kogaion
Konstanze may be referred to as “The Illuminated Kogaion” or “The Draconic Architect” or any other suitable combination for short. The word choice used depends on the context of the conversation, ie, Konstanze may be referred to as “The Illuminated Parlimentarian” when she is hosting a session, and to differentiate her from other Mystery-sworn who do not hold the title “Illuminated”. When discussing how the Kogaion is handling Praxis politics, a Dragon may use the term “Sable Kogaion” to indicate a conflict between her role as Mystery-sworn and her role as Kogaion.
Formal Title:
Hermetic Philosopher of the Imperial Umbra, Azure Journeyman and Castellan
Knows 7 dots of Coils. Main Coil is Ascendant and secondary Coil is Voivode. Considers herself an alchemist. Is a Sworn of the Dying Light Journeyman and keeper of the local chapterhouse.
Informal Title:
Descriptor: Hermetic, Scorched, Azure
Title: Philosopher, Journeyman, Castellan
Again, the combination of Descriptor or Title used depends on context. One may use "The Hermetic Castellan" when discussing a recent debauched gathering at the local chapterhouse, or "The Azure Journeyman" to call attention to the fact that she has yet to complete her thesis.
