Sphinx

The Sphinx are a Legacy associated with the Mysterium and the Mastigos path.

Philosophy
To the Sphinx, the capacity to speak and understand language is the most important development in the history of human consciousness. There are many linguists in the Awakened community, but the Sphinx take this beyond even that. Language, they claim, is merely a way of conveying meaning, and meaning is communicated in many ways. Body language, non-verbal vocalisations, colours, patterns - all of these things can constitute communication, and the Sphinx learns to read them with great facility.

Attainments
The Sphinx make heavy use of the Fate Arcanum, with Mind as a secondary focus.

A Sphinx learns to read the hidden meanings behind seemingly meaningless occurences, can hide messages in strange places, align their own subconscious communications with the greater scheme of their surroundings, or else divorce themselves from the greater communication entirely, becoming invisible to the strands of Fate. They may also learn to communicate friendly messages to people they meet by reading their responses, to understand any language, to take in large amounts of data in a short space of time, and even to understand a person's deepest thoughts by reading their behaviour.
