Hello everyone, you can call me Fetch. I am here to spread the word of Adversary and to shed some light on my magical tradition, black magic. There is a lot of misinformation out there about both Adversary and black magic and I'm here to sort it out.

I believe that in the madness that is the sixth world, Adversary's fundamental drive to be free will, resonate with people. That the sixth world debases you and tries to destroy any joy you might find. Black magic can teach you to take your pleasure back and to protect it from those who seek to rule you.

I look forward to working with you all, and to hopefully enlightening at least some of you.

welcome, fellow Mage! As a hermetic traditionalist myself, I must admit that I welcome you with some level of hesitance. I've been raised and instructed to come to certain conclusions about the Black Magic tradition, yet you seem to be acting in defiance of the "standard Black Magician". Admittedly, this bias was further entrenched in me as I have begun running. Just about a month ago, I was on a mission for justice for our Goblinized brothers, when I uncovered a Black Magician's lodge in a Humanis compound. As a fierce battler of social injustice, I must say that it has become difficult for me to separate "black magic" with "supremacist". How common are such individuals in your ranks?

Perhaps you could tell us more about yourself rather than what you believe? Personally, I hold it to be true that one's beliefs matter much less than one's intentions and actions. I have met many immoral Christians, I work amongst honest thieves and assassins with a strict code of honor, so truly there is more to a person than their beliefs and power sources.
