Anyone know of any magical groups that cater only to the pointy eared types? I suppose I could build my own but Im wondering if there are any from the SR lore that Im not picking up on. Basicly Im looking for one that would be strictly for elves, prolly based out of the Tir countries and not at all favourable to other races. Any web resources for something like that?

Not that I remember. Try looking through either Tir Tairngire (though that's OLD) or Street Magic. If you've looked already, and aren't finding anything, then I guess you'll have to go with option B (being make your own).

I remember someone saying about a tradition that the Irish elves had. Path of Wheel or something like it.

Step 1)
Go to one of the Elven Nations (Tir Tairngire, Tir na Og, Azzania, Pomorya, etc).

Step 2)
Throw a rock into a crowd

Step 3)
BINGO! Profit.


Yes, the Elves really ARE that stuck up. You can find elven supremacists in any major country they control. Said Pointy-eared-Nazifaires will ALWAYS have magical groups, something about that whole "Elven Soul" crap. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And yes, the "Path of the Wheel" is a magical style found in Tir Na Og, and it's basically (not exactly however) Elven Druidism by Elves, for Elves (It's also from the 4th world, possibly earlier). Not all the Elves like it tho, differences in Dogma over how pointy a 'proper' ear is supposed to be I suppose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I remember The Grimoire had the Moonlight Thorns, an Adepts-only group of assassins/bodyguards that worked for a Tir Tairngire noble. More recently, I seem to recall a group called the Songbirds that had some Tir ties.

Over on the Irish front, there's the whole Path of the Wheel gig they've got going, with specialists in (insert job here), that once-upon-a-time got Shaman-style bonuses and penalties based on the season and some other wonky stuff like that (I have no idea how/if they've been converted to 4th edition).

They're a normal, streamlined tradition by now, found on p. 40 of Street Magic.

The Elven Technologists had a elven only magical circle I believe. Been a while since I read Harlequin though, there was at least one mage in their ranks in Ehran s pocket...

Moonlight Thorns fit the bill perfectly. Thanks all.
