Beautiful Triad

From Project: Redcap


The Beautiful Triad is a Grecian ex Miscellanea lineage of three magi who specialize in mental magic, and accept only the most beautiful daughters of the gods.

They are a mystery cult as well as a lineage, and do not reveal all their secrets to new members, requiring that they learn the truth of the tradition themselves.

At any given time there will be at most one Maiden, one Mother and one Crone.

Major Non-Hermetic Virtue: Strong Faerie Blood

Minor Hermetic Virtue: Performance Magic (Maiden->Music, Mother->Teaching, Crone->Storytelling)

Major Hermetic Flaw: Necessary Condition: Must perform according to their virtue

Required Major Hermetic Virtue: Gentle Gift

Required Non-Hermetic Virtue: Unaging (They permanently appear as they would at the perfect age for them, whether older or younger than their current age; this is initiated as part of their opening of the arts)

Further progress in the cult opens up more virtues relating to the Greek view of the world, and Faerie Magic.

While it respects all of the triads of women in the Greek Pantheon, the tradition is ultimately based on the three muses: Aoidē ("song"), Meletē ("practice"), and Mnēmē ("memory").
