Each Faction holds unique styles of will-working in contrast to one another. Each Faction embraces Telos into their Paradigms, and through sometimes radically different, each holds a unique view on it the Council as a whole lacks
Organization: The Essence Council watches over the Tradition. They seek to coordinate aid, knowledge and resources between the Tradition.  Despite their moderate organization, half of the Factions lack adequate faculties, resources, nodes and holdings their esteemed Council brethren have. Each Faction coordinates with the Essence Council using various communication systems, mundane or magical. The Essence Council has a single representative for each Essence. Rumored to be the four secluded youths with rare virtue, extraordinary power and unique wisdom.

Specialty Sphere: Telos
Factions:
Bata’a- a cultural fusion of many religions and various magics of the Caribbean Islands and the Americas when the first black slaves culturally mixed with the natives. Theirs is one of the largest living bodies of magic in the world, claiming Sorcerers and Awakened alike. But have always been too internalized and apolitical in the past to capitalize on it beyond their own homes. Till now. The rise of Walking Dead and odd events has blustered their Paradigm worldwide. What will come of it is to be seen
Upeo Wa Macho (The Horizon)- the small eastern African bloc of Bata’a, distinctive due to separation of ocean and culture
Ovoa Hiva- This Faction takes its name from the Horizon Realm it had resided in for thousands of year. During the Kuhuna Wars of Polynesia, some of the most powerful Hunas retreated from the world. Now their culture is foreign to their descents and they have much to rebuild. Their isolation from the modern world has their advances embracing natural technologies and unique biosciences that fascinate mystic and scientist alike. As with their Polynesian counterparts, they study Correspondence above any other.   
Noir Luxor- more a determined extensive webbed-assemblage of Cliques than a faction, they were Hollow Ones that actually wanted to join the Council. Hollowers derogatorily call them ‘Councilors’. Found distinctly in North America and Western Europe cities
Modernists- a rapidly growing fold of Orphans that practice personalized-magic over following any one Tradition style. The Council Primi had the greatest objection with this Faction, but Luxor would not join without it. The Tradition’s backbone  
Children of Telos- a rapidly growing fold of Orphans that were Awakened during the world shaking events with a strong connection to Telos. Naturals in Telos’s craft and understanding, they comprise some of the strongest Telos workers in the Traditions here. They claim that they are led by those responsible for Telos coming. They are the Tradition’s keystone group
Fellowship of Method- their roots stretch back to the Hermetic House Luxor (See Revised OOH). Master-Scientist Tyron Williams III, originally known as Master Paschal Beverly Randolf, envisioned a house that blends Magic, Faith and Science. This unique style was over-shadowed by the old Hermetic Masters fearful view of any Science. The House left for better ground in the Etherite Tradition before the modern era. This small but potent faction now works heavily with each faction of the Tradition and tries to build bridges between Luxor and the other Traditions. The Fellowship is the Tradition’s foundation. They have come to study Prime heavily, but have expertise in Forces, Matter and Spirit magics
