The fellowship is a society of will workers hailing mostly from the Order of Hermes but is open to any Tradition mage with an allied paradigm. Besides advancing the Hermetic agenda on the West Coast, the Fellowship pursues Ascension through academic and occult influence, self-mastery, art and craftsmanship, and the preservation of the Dreaming and the Fae.

* Chantry House -  The cabal keeps a chantry house at an unpublished location.
 
* Influence - The Fellowship has a great deal of influence over the local University and academia at large. It's goals are largely intellectual and it uses the academy as a means to these ends.
 
* Library - Between it's relationship with the University and the greater Hermetic community, the Fellowship has amassed a sizable knowledge base. The Fellowship has nearly limitless mundane resources and a generous magical library at its disposal.
 
* Endowment - The Fellowship has a more than generous endowment that it uses to fund it causes and agenda. It's members do not have to work if they do not wish to, though most choose to as they find it rewarding.

* Paradigm - The Fellowship is deeply committed to the religious [[Fellowship_of_the_Secret_Word/Rites|ritual magic]] of the ancient Egyptians but grounded in general Hermetic philosophy. While we revere the mysteries of the past we do not let it chain us. Computers and modern science also inform our work.   
 
* Goals -
 
** Library - The Fellowship has been entrusted with an extensive collection of important magical texts, some of which are extremely rare. We are concerned with protecting these volumes and expanding our collection for the benefit of those the properly initiated.
 
** Academia - Many Traditions recruit from the ranks of academics and the Fellowship has many academic contacts. It is our intention to cultivate the academic institutions in Prospect so they provide the Order and the Traditions with properly trained apprentices, acolytes, consors and grogs. By covertly influencing academia we will use these institutions as organs of the Traditions. The power of these institutions to create an environment where Traditional ideas can thrive and stymie ideas of our enemies.
 
*** Greek Life - The has cultivated the sororities and fraternities at UC Prospect in order to recruit like minded apprentices. From this association the chantry has swelled their ranks of neophytes and acolytes who perform services and assist with rituals.
 
** Ancient Egypt - The Fellowship was founded by members of House Shaea. As such, we are regularly hold rites to honor the Egyptian pantheon. See our [[Fellowship_of_the_Secret_Word/Glossary|Glossary]] of Ancient Egyptian language.
 
** Amenti -  Chantry members swear to opposes the forces of Apophis aid the Amenti in whatever way they can.
 
** The Fae - Chantry members swear to nurture the Dreaming and aid the Fae in whatever way they can.
 
** Translation - The Fellowship is actively involved in translating ancient knowledge so that its wisdom can benefit modern humanity.

* Fellowship of the Secret Word is primarily recruits from the Order of Hermes at large but mages from other Traditions with related affinities are encouraged to apply as well. Orphans are generally not accepted unless they can demonstrate not only compatibility but also  a rigorous praxis, discipline, and a desire towards Ascension. Prospective members should have  backgrounds in religious/mysticism (clerical, scholarly or artistic), the creation of Wonders, exploration of the spirit worlds, academic or scholarship, an interest in languages, preservation of knowledge through the written word and/or translation, or a connection to the ancient Egypt, the Amenti, the Fae or shifters (particularly Bubasti). We also accept consors of every type though vampires are probably not a good fit.
