==== Staunen ====
{{quote| ''I'm afraid I don't see things like you do. I mean it: I'm afraid. What if the things I find beautiful [[Go Mad From the Revelation|drive you mad?]] What if they hollow you out like clever little squirrels getting nuts for the winter, except [[Eye Scream|the nuts are your eyes,]] and winter is, [[Metaphorgotten|I don't know, maybe]] [[The End of the World Asas We Know It|the Rapture]] [[Metaphorgotten|or something?]] And [[Dissonant Serenity|I'm just smiling while your face gets ripped apart]] because I think it's beautiful? These things worry me sometimes, when I'm not looking at the night sky. [[Cloudcuckoolander|So I spend a lot of time looking at the night sky, and not looking at your face and thinking about squirrels.]]''}}
 
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]
Line 81:
* [[Badass Army]]
* [[Badass Bookworm]] or [[Genius Bruiser]]: They can use Mania to enhance their physical abilities.
* [[Defector From Decadence]]: Because of [[Obstructive Bureaucrat|Obstructive Bureaucrats]] and being [[Surrounded Byby Idiots]].
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]
* [[Mildly Military]]: While still possessed of military trappings, formal organization and protocol have been relaxed in recent years.
Line 105:
** [[Adventurer Archaeologist]]: A little Schliemannian globetrotting is much more exciting than hitting the books.
** [[Master of Illusion]]: A prerequisite for any would-be conqueror of the human mind.
** [[Rhymes Onon a Dime]]: Because puckishness just isn't the same without the odd couplet here and there.
* [[Will Not Tell a Lie]]: For older (or old-fashioned) Scolastics, being truthful is [[Serious Business]] <ref>They were originally a zoroastrian philosophy cult. Truth was to Ancient Persia like democracy is to [[Eagle Land]]</ref>.
 
Line 159:
** Not all of them do, though. For example, Belinda Czdenk (who is not highly regarded by other Phenomenologists) doesn't so much disbelieve in objective truth as believe that it's irrelevant and/or unknowable. So, while she may reject common reality, she can't substitute it with her own, much to her frustration. [[You Fail Logic Forever|Yes, that logic is shot,]] but remember [[Mad Scientist|who we're dealing with]].
*** Because of this the other Phenomenologists consider Belinda to e a phony.
* [[Surveillance Asas the Plot Demands]]: They're in charge of Lemuria's intelligence operations.
 
===== Dharmists (destroyed) =====
Line 209:
* [[Clock Punk]]
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: They may look primitive, but they're also passionate hunters of the Illuminated.
* [[New Technology Is Evil]]: Inspired by [[Leonardo Dada Vinci]], and leery of the trappings of modern technology.
** By modern technology we mean they consider steam power to be new fangled devil technology.
*** They like gunpowder, though.
Line 233:
==== Malcolm T. Washington Fellowship ====
 
* [[Big Creepy -Crawlies]]
* [[Black and Nerdy]]
* [[Overly Narrow Superlative]]: [[Word of God|Moochava]] stated that this Fellowship is based off of college scholarships with ridiculously specific qualifications- in this case, being an African-American entomologist.
Line 250:
==== Historical ====
 
===== [[Leonardo Dada Vinci|Leonardo di ser Piero]] =====
 
* [[Beethoven Was an Alien Spy]]
Line 300:
* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: He's a Mechanist, it comes naturally to him.
* [[Cyberpunk]]
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Monkeys|Everything's Better With Giant Metal Monkeys]]
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: Grew up as [[The Unfavorite]], knowing his destiny was to become a faceless mook. Not hard to see why he snapped.
* [[From Nobody to Nightmare]]: He was originally slated to become Beholden.
