One of the most powerful circles of mages in the world, the Order of Atlantis was founded in Egypt in the third century AD. They were among the first to establish what is now known as the traditions of hermetic magic, which they claimed to have been given by an archmage who survived the fall of Atlantis. Indeed, the Order views it as their sacred destiny to preserve the legacy of Atlantis, and have scoured the world to find relics and ruins associated with the Island Kingdom.
