Exploring the Society of Ether, a faction in Mage the Ascension in the World of Darkness. If you want to support the channel you can buy my book, The Hermetic Hipsters guide to the Traditions here: www.storytelle...
Yes dude, I can’t wait to play one of these guys, I haven’t got the chance just yet, but I really want to. I’m used to playing orphans, but once I finally get done with my latest character I should be playing an etherite. It would be cool if you covered the dream speakers, those are some cool dudes
Hey hipster! Your one of my fav M:Ta RU-vidrs! You make everything very understandable especially for a new player like me. I have a question. Will you ever make a video explaining the Spheres? Or a video about the Crafts?
Another great video. Never had a chance to play as an Etherite for more than one session but they are definitively my favorite Tradition. Also, since in the future I will be playing and Dreamspeaker change my vote that I made on the last video for them =V
@@TheHermeticHipster The Cult of Extasy but Dreamspeaker would be fine too ;) May be with famous personality included with some background for them. Like the famous ones from every traditions/groups ?
Is a theory being disproven even make any sense where reality can be written by Mages I mean is there a natural law for scientists to actually learn from or is it all just consensus?
It would probably be Hollow Earth flatter stuff was kind of disproved way way way back in the Greek days of like Pythagoras when they used math to prove the world was round but Hollow Earth was a popular idea way up to the Sci-Fi books of Jules Verne which is the inspiration for a lot of pseudoscience as well as inspired by actual science of the day just like Mary Shelley Frankenstein book was inspired by the science and pseudoscience of the day when they were learning stuff about bodies and life that they hadn't learned before which some of which is now become actual science and are they so I think it would be holler especially since that also links to stuff like the Godzilla movies
I appreciate what you did there with the intro..but it does peek my curiousity. With a username like yours, I figured you may indeed be into Hermeticism not just because of it's use in Mage. If that's true do you really feel no trust in things like alternative medicine? I get things like astrology and the hollow earth. These are highly symbolic and nothing else. But I wonder how you feel about shamanism and alternative medicine in general. Once again, granted you are a hermetic. Though I will say it is very odd coming across a hermetic who isn't somewhat into astrology haha. I would love to hear what you think of it!
Hey! Glad you liked the intro, it was supposed to be a slightly comic take, but I chose Pseudo Sciences that would usually fall outside of the current concensus, not thi gs is personally dislike. But the name Hermetic Hipster is definetly just an in game handle, I don't really know much of mystisicm/astrology/magic in real life!
Not sure if someone already asked this, but why--even with showing the book with the actual name--do you use Society instead of the accurate name for their Tradition?? This isn't subjective....its like the term Prince in Vamp Masq being used regardless of actual gender, if that is what the reason is for whatever reason. White Wolf completely considered the alt lifestyles even so early in the inception of such insanity. But hey, whatev, thus my query. Trying to understand.
@@TheHermeticHipster oh don't worry, you weren't shutting me down. Even if it directly said musk was a nephandus I could just change it for a story, not even white wolf can keep it's famous people straight. Just look at Rasputin or hp lovecraft.
