Hermetic Order Of The Obsidian Dawn
When the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn collapsed in 1903, the Secret Chiefs abandoned the idea of functional Order in Europe and instead left for New York. Here, they settled in Staten Island, seeing it as being remote enough from the other New York factions to allow them the peace to perform their rites without being involved in the inter-factional squabbles. A foolish notion, if they ever had one.
Where their progenitor order had existed openly, the Obsidian Dawn opted for secrecy and manipulation from behind the scenes.

Structure
The Obsidian Twilight is split into three Circles.
The First Order is the Outer Circle and consists of acolytes and initiates. They act as scribes and servants, learning little or no practical magic, but are often granted magical aid in their civilian life, granting them success, wealth or fame.
The second order is the Inner Circle and consists of wizards and magisters with varying levels of training. They are usually affluent and powerful enough that their civilian lives hardly matters anymore.
The Third is the Circle of True Chiefs, consisting of five members whose identities remain secret to the other members. They rule the Obsidian Twilight and are said to be great masters of magic.
