London was once the heart of the Technocracy and still is a stronghold. However, only the Syndicate and the New World Order still maintain a major active presence there, and as the Technocracy dislikes open magickal warfare near so many witnesses, many Tradition chantries are also allowed to operate, never sure how close the surveillance they are under is. Idol House has kept a low profile and thought it was off the radar - but the fateful arrival of Olivia one night led to an escalation of suspicions that ended with a flight to the Umbra.

			==London==
			London was once the heart of the Technocracy and still is a stronghold. However, only the Syndicate and the New World Order still maintain a major active presence there. However, as the Technocracy finds open magickal warfare unbecoming in the first world, many tradition chantries are also allowed to operate, never sure how close the surveillance they are under. Idol House has kept a low profile and thinks it is off the radar - but the fateful arrival of Olivia one night led to an escalation of suspicions that ended with a flight to the Umbra.

			Major locations include:
			*'''The Greenwich Observatory''', once the headquarters of the Void Engineers and still their greatest node.
			*'''The City''', which crawls with Syndics. Mages beware.
			*'''The British Museum''', near Idol House. Not actually a techno stronghold in itself, despite many trad suspicions, and mostly picked clean of real interest, but does turn up interesting objects once in a while.

			==The Golden City==
			''Since people decided to bait fate.''

			Calacthchan and Calamity are a pair of demons who devote their lives to aesthetics without limit. Calacthchan, the nominal emperor, concerns himself with all aspects of exquisite, cultured beauty. His wife Calamity, commander of the armies and possibly the real power, concerns herself with the wilder, freer beauty of violence and competition.

			*'''Opal''' is the Baroness' frustration of a daughter. She ignores lessons not somehow about plants. She has never been caught misbehaving, but pranks have been known to happen even when Skit has an airtight alibit.

	The Estate fully admits the Verbena paradigm. The Hermetic paradigm is valid inside the library, which was the haunt of a regular Hermetic visitor in years past. However, many effects which would otherwise be vulgar are permissible due to the estate's reality being defined by superhuman spirits, who are not terribly fussed by multiple actions.
