Ms. KoKo (Justin Moors born:1968) Contact for Dr. O'Farrell in 90's
Cult of Ecstasy:Time/Mind/Life/Correspondence
High concept: NYC Club Kid(IE. Seth Green in Party Monster) Drag Queen

"Mild mannered" Business Intern by day, Queen Bi*** by night, or as he sees it consummate actor by day and performance goddess by night. He refuses to talk about his upbringing instead preferring to only talk regarding his new lives as everything before his magical upbringing was just the trash that is dying with this world. Now with his walking pharmacy he can bring you to whatever heaven or hell you want. The night clubs are her safe haven, the outcasts her subjects. But even for you normies there is always time and experiences if you're open to it and/or have the money for it.

Shen Wei: Contact to Andre Wilkinson
Akashic Brotherhood: Mind/Life/Prime
High Concept: Do Warrior/Scholar of the Ancient Ways

(In the 90’s)
Shen Wei is a scholar of Eastern traditions and a master of Do. Avidly opposed to the violent outpouring he has seen at every turn, he has and argued that the ‘war’ between the traditions and technocracy should be internal and philosophical. Though he has been forced into fighting to keep the battles from taking innocent or unawakened lives, Shen Wei is doing his best to refrain from violence.

He is a close friend to Andre, as the two awakened together, and though in different traditions have shared their philosophical views. Shen Wei has learned prime from the Hermetic and in turn taught her sword work.

Their high level of prime have also allowed each to create the other a wonder of some power, to shore up weaknesses.

Gyotso Chaipan - associate of George Faller
Akashic Brotherhood (Mind, Life, Forces, Corr)
High Concept: Destined Warrior turned Peace Activist

Gyotso awakened early and was trained from youth to be a warrior. He was destined to bring about an end to the ascension war. He fought the war in the manner he was taught without question, until he started questioning the excessive sleeper casualties. He questioned the history as it was told. As he dug deeper into what he had learned he found layers of truth and lies. Gyotso decided to move past fighting the war the way he'd been taught. He started recruiting people to a peaceful way of ending the war. At first he brought other Akashics to his way of thinking and then he moved on to other traditions. Gytoso even found a way to reach some technocrats and begin talks of a peaceful end to the ceaseless violence and death. Gyotso worked his whole life to turn a destiny of violence into a destiny of peace.

David "Dave" O'Doyle
Son of Ether apprentice - (Forces, Time, Matter)

Doc Green's first apprentice awakened as a teenager and displayed an overt fondness for grunge music, skateboards, and arcades. Not having any knack for the arcane flavors of magic, he gravitated toward technomancy and, after an accidental run-in with the PC cabal, became a frequenter of Doc Green's lab and eager first-adopter of many of his inventions. He was tragically lost in an NWO raid.

Doc Green assigns some homework. For Gene the assignments focus on Technology, Craft (High Tech), and Matter with the reasoning that he'll need to be able to create unique support equipment in order to further his goals. This seems, to him, to be the principle overlap in their interests. For Derrik the focus more on physics (the Science knowledge), Forces, reasoning that an understanding of motion will aid in his freerunning hobby.

-----
Zeke seeks out classes in some language he doesn't already know, supernatural history (vampiric if he can find someone that he thinks might actually know something), and sphere training in Spirit (current 1), Mind (current 2), and Forces (current 0). As he's already got undergrad gen-ed credits in normal university subjects, he avoids those classes.

The curriculum Quinn has taught and would send book lists: for Faith would focus on Life Sphere, empathy, and meditation(a more christian version than he practices) and for Gene would focus on Entropy Sphere, research, and bio-psychology science.

-----

Derrik would sign up for courses in Life or Prime, for culture would look for Occult/diplomatic relations, and for practices Technology or meditation.

George's Teaching Routine
George’s teaching plan is based on a reading list given to his two mentees. He will give Zeke and Skye each a separate reading list with some overlap. The study for both will focus primarily around occult (vampires for Zeke and garou/weaver for Skye) and spirit magic (which will be mostly hermetic in nature). For Zeke the studies will include languages and for Skye they will include meditation.

For the group study sessions George focuses on critical thinking and general occult knowledge. (Int and Occult)

Kai Omega Curriculum
Magic: Arete and Mind
Culture: Euthanatos and Cult of Ecstasy
Classes: Political Science and Psychology
Practices: Focus and tech-based practices
Other: Not really a curriculum, Kai choses to continue a daily physical regime. Less demanding than the one imposed by Vishal, but still a daily routine.

Other Information
George has asked his old friend, Stargazer Sakshi Khatri, who he met during his time in London and has kept close tabs on. Sakshi usually spends much of her time in the United Kingdom is more than willing to devote some time in London helping some of George’s protégés. She is especially willing as London has some of the best curry joints in the whole of the United Kingdom, plus there are some excellent tea houses as well.

Ketch’s Teaching

There is nothing better than real life experience to learn something, so get out and find things to do. This is a standing order.

He wants Lavenia and Sky to keep working on studies of the different supernatural creatures and their world as well as forensics and investigative techniques. If they can, take time to help decide ‘the book’, but be careful. (This would be Occult and Investigation)

He also wants them to learn to protect themselves and enroll in shooting courses since he can’t be there to teach them. I think England is strict on gun control but there are probably shooting clubs for hunting. (Firearms)

For magic use it in small ways. It’s not a crutch it’s a part of you. For Lavenia use Spirit to interact with that world and try to use those creatures for finding information and developing a connection. Learn about their systems of trade and look for them everywhere.

For Sky Correspondence is about connections use it for accuracy and speed. You can get things done fast when you pull on the threads between objects and ideas. Learn to use it when finding things through digital networks. You may even be able to obscure your presence there by obscuring your own connections.

Gene is going to enroll in a sciences (bio genetics/pharmaceuticals/psychology) degree. He will work on streamlining his use of tools and equipment. He will want to spend lots of time in the lab.

He wants to also learn about ways to impact the zeitgeist of the world (such as medical journals and the publishing of experiments with positive benefits) so genetic experimentation is more accepted in the long run.
He is interested in finding out why what he is proposing is frowned on and he wants to find/convert like minds to help him show the positives.

Forces/Matter are probably his Sphere focuses for now.

Studies wise: Sciences, and Medicine

He also tries to start a tabletop gaming club.

Vishal will assume that Derrik and Kai will continue the training he has put them on so far.
-Running for athletics and yoga to improve dexterity for physical activities. Basic combat training is difficult without an instructor, so he’ll give them a pass on that.
Meditation, chanting mantras and drawing mandalas to help focus the mind. Entropy and prime
______________________________________________________________________________

Blane’s Focus
Magic: Prime with help from Andre’s lessons and hopefully mind with help from the Rat King’s
Culture: He is going to try and start making contacts in Tradition society, Learn more about the Cult of Ecstasy, and learn more etiquette in Mage society.
Classes: Occult studies and Supernatural Politics/Law. His bachelor’s in communication from NYU is enough regular classes for him.
Practices: He is going to keep up the physical training as well. Being able to run better seems like it would be beneficial. This is also a good time for some introspection.

The Rat King will continue his teachings in Mind and Subterfuge.
For Kai Omega he will teach some Esoterica in hopes that Kai will be able to expand her paradigm beyond the technological.
For Blane he will teach Common Sense (Wait that is not a skill) Politics. If Blane is dead set on amassing a large amount of followers on the "internet" he should learn to use that power in the real world.




Faith is going to focus her magical learning on increasing Arete. One way she will try to do that is by associating more with the Celestial Chorus. Another way is by taking magical fundamental courses.

Aretha will continue her teachings in entropy and reading the threads of fate through books, meditations, the study of spirits, and the occult.


Skye will continue to do as her teachers have instructed her and gladly pick up lessons in shooting.
