Editing Promethean: The Created (section)

====Aurum, Refinement of Gold====
::'''Nickname''': Mimics
::'''Concept''': Mortality
::'''Associated Transmutations''': Deception, Mesmerism

The thing about Prometheans that you need to remember is that they don't come into the world with an instruction manual. When they wake up, they don't know anything. Humanity in particular baffles and confuses them; they know they have to become human to accomplish the Pilgrimage, but they don't have the advantage of decades of conscious and subconscious social tutelage to fall back on to teach them about what that means. So, followers of Aurum, known as Mimics, focus on trying to better understand humans and blend in. As the New Dawn is the ultimate goal of Prometheans, it's a natural fit, but it doesn't hold ''all'' of the answers. Their Roles are:

* Companion: By living as an equal amongst humans (friends, lovers) the Promethean wants to learn intimacy and human interaction. It may be on an individual basis or as part of a group, but the threats of Disquiet and Torment are always present. 
* Follower: Through trust and deference, the Promethean wants to learn how to trust people- a difficult lesson for a being that is persecuted simply for existing. Some take it too far and become almost totally subservient to that one person.
* Leader: By taking charge themselves, they learn how to care for people, whether this is actual care or more in a mentor-like way.

=====Pneuma, Refinement of Grace=====
::'''Nickname''': Edenites

An alternative refinement of gold, the Edenites believed that only the grace of God can bring about the New Dawn, so they seek to become paragons of their faith and christian morality. It has the same roles as above, but all are within the context of a religious community. The refinement is however a dead end, since it relies on an external source and eschews the need to explore multiple refinements, its follower eventually stop progressing on their Pilgrimage. By the end of the [[Wikipedia:Thirty Years' War|Thirty Years' War]], the refinement dies out due to the fracturing of the christian faith and as more people begin to question the existence of God.
