Raspberries

A social group of apprentices and young mages with novel ideas about magic. They are not taken seriously by the Hermetic establishment, which after all expects apprentices to spin wild theories before settling down into something more conventional. The name "Raspberry" is a reaction to that attitude, and a pun on the Rhine tradition of naming gilds after plants.

The Members Each member has their own individual radical theory, which may not be compatible with the others'. The following are very brief summaries of complex ideas that cannot be fairly explained without a score in Magic Theory.
 * Wymond of Bonisagus - ancient magic can surpass Hermetic limits.
 * Volos of Verditius - magic as life force.
 * Ceccolo of Flambeau- meta-Perdo. Radical reorganization of Arts and Forms.
 * Isabeau of Criamon- color theory of magic. All forms/arts are really colors.
 * Liuthold of Jerbiton- reconciliation of different realms, esp. the Divine, into magic.
 * Nastolgio of Tremere- group mind, group thought. Racial memory.
 * Rose of Bjornaer- the Gift is subtly linked to hair, and can be improved accordingly.
