스페이스 오페라 에로플하다가 나 찾는다기에 왔다. 원문 찾아왔으니까 알아서들 읽어.


요약: 의외로 테키나 트래디션이나 수는 비슷함. 심지어 각성 확률조차도 동일함. 이건 패러다임이 각성에 영향을 크게 주지는 않는다는 뜻.


뱀발1: 말콤 셰퍼드의 또다른 말에 의하면 워울프의 각성 확률은 메이지의 다섯배는 족히 된다고 함. 

그러니 아마 저거보단 5배가 많다고 해도 과언이 아니겠지. 그나마 비-워울프의 각성확률이 메이지랑 비슷하다고 하니 참조.


뱀발2: 크로스오버 시나리오에서의 카논 통계는 거머리>법뻔뻔>댕댕이>레이스>그외 순으로 많음. 나머지는 비슷하게 무존재감


P.S 난 메이지빠지만 메이지까이기도 하고 메이지를 까는만큼 Furry한 댕댕이를 좋아함. 끝.






I did some digging on this very question a little while ago. I found somewhere Malcolm Shepperd, one of the free lancing writers/devs for M:tA in an archived post saying in HIS OPINION:


Waaaay too many Nephandi in that breakdown. To be Nephandus you have to enter the cauls, not just be bad. Plus, they have the smallest number of canonical NPCs. I'd put their numbers at less than 5%. There are also probably slightly fewer Orphans, since the Traditions really are pretty good at assimilating mystics. The Crafts have been beaten down by the Technocracy, to boot, but we'll be opstimistic with both. Plus, there are quite a lot of Technocrats.


So I'd say:


Traditions- 40%

Technocracy- 40%

Marauders- 6%

Nephandi- 4%

Crafts- 10%

Orphans- 10%



Canonically, the largest are:

1) OoH (they recruit more than any other Trad and the House structure lets them incorporate many different styles)

2) Akashic Brotherhood (they recruit less than many Trads but have the largest population base to draw from).


After that, the Dreamspeakers and Celestial Chorus are supposed to be pretty large and diverse. The Verbena trail slightly behind these two. The Ecstatics are probably about the size of the Verbena.


The Virtual Adepts and Sons of Ether are probably about equal size and next largest after the trads above.


The Euthanatos are supposed to be smaller than the other Traditions.


To make some hard choices and put it all in a list, with breakdowns the ranking from largest to smallest would be:


1) Order of Hermes 15%

2) Akashic Brotherhood 14%

3) Celestial Chorus 13%

4) Dreamspeakers 12%

5) Verbena 11%*

6) Cult of Ecstacy 11%*

7) Virtual Adepts 9%*

8) Sons of Ether 9%*

9) Euthanatos 6%


*The higher ranks Trad may have a fractionally higher number of members.


Bill Bridges revised the numbers during his run, which were originally 1 mage per million or 1 per 500,000, to 1 per 200,000 ro 250,000. Let's make it an even 30,000 Awakened mages in the world.


That means the Traditions have 12,000 members.


So:


1) Order of Hermes: 1800

2) Akashic Brotherhood: 1680

3) Celestial Chorus: 1560

4) Dreamspeakers: 1440

5) Verbena: 1320

6) Cult of Ecstacy: 1320

7) Virtual Adepts: 1080

8) Sons of Ether: 1080

9) Euthanatos: 720


Breakdown by rank makes most Tradition mages Disciples, with a significant narrowing at Adept rank thanks to attrition and fewer apprentices because they tend to die more easily and because magic is generally in decline. So:


Apprentice 15% -- 1800 Traditionalists

Initiate: 20% -- 2400 Traditionalists

Disciple: 50% -- 6000 Traditionalists

Adept: 13% -- 1560 Traditionalists

Master: 1.9% -- 228 Traditionalists?

Archmaster: .1% 12 Traditionalists?


Ranks will tend to break statistical predictions as the increase. For instance, thr Masters and archmasters are probably doled out more evenly that Tradition numbers would suggest. By contrast, the Technocracy probably has a fairly strict pyramidial distribution, with the fewest on top and as many as half being "Apprentices."
