Houses of Hermes: Societates

This sourcebook covers four Houses of the Order of Hermes: Flambeau, champions who pursue glory through honorable combat; Jerbiton, magi devoted to beauty and engagement with the wider world; Tytalus, who thrive on conflict, rivalry, and political schemes; and Ex Miscellanea, a diverse gathering of practitioners from pre-Hermetic traditions. It provides background, culture, and character options for each House, along with eight detailed examples of Ex Miscellanea traditions and rules for their non-Hermetic abilities.
