| | Felicia Hardesty |
 | | Somewhat an outcast among the Cult of Ecstasy Tradition, Dr. Lomsang was an ascetic individual, more given to introspection and meditation than the more prevalent excesses among the other members of the Tradition. |  | | Still, he could drum a mean ritual drum and was sometimes regarded as a confidant among younger Tradition members. |  | | Felicia led a week-long wake for him in his honor, in which every Cult of Ecstasy member in the area (and several from far away) participated. |

| | Feng Shui: Junctures |
 | | Due to an early 21st-century popularization of the notion that all religions are a path to the Transcendent and that no finite religion can encompass infinite divine reality, bitter disagreements over theology are extremely rare; Joseph Campbell’s works and especially their popularizations are best-sellers. |  | | Humanity may have decided to upload themselves collectively as escapism, or they may have been forcibly dragged in by evil AIs seeking to use their gray matter as extra parallel processing. |  | | 1990’s psychedelic trance/rave culture takes over the world, with some help from the Cult of Ecstacy, the Virtual Adepts, the Akashic Brotherhood, the Celestial Chorus, the Dragons, and a big push from the Wyld. |

 | | The Cult of Ecstacy does use things like drugs and music and even sex, but they're just means to an end. |  | | It doesn't have to be a pleasant feeling, but given a choice, most Cultists definitely prefer it that way. |  | | The point is to achieve a mental state that transcends the physical world, a trance that allows the mage to see beyond his normal experience and go outside all the lines that keep most people and mages penned in. |
