词释 Lexicons

---

法师们是一群将世界以复杂辞藻和诗意想象修饰的，啰里巴嗦的家伙。
由于部分组织会使用特定的术语, 因此我们将此词释章节分割为相应的类别。
在一处被引用的术语（如传统宗派术语）可能会在另一个类别下被找到。（见科技联盟术语）

Mages are a verbose bunch whose world lends itself to complex descriptors and poetic imagery. Because certain groups employ specific terminology, we’ve broken this Lexicon down into the appropriate sections. Terms that are referenced in one place (like Tradition Terminology) might also be found under another category (Technocratic Terminology).

关于组织的特定阶级与职称，见第五章的边栏。
关于不同的异界层域与概念的称谓，见第四章。

For group-specific ranks and titles, see the sidebars throughout Chapter Five. For the names of various Otherworldly layers and concepts, see Chapter Four.

还有不，你并不需要为了扮演法师而知道全部这些东西，但它能帮上忙。

And no, you don’t need to know all this stuff in order to play Mage. But it helps.

通用术语 Common Terminology

---

许多术语反映了觉醒者之间的共通概念；虽然这些大多源自神秘学的技法；但若只是为清楚起见，科技吏官们通常也会使用这些词汇。

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Many terms reflect common concepts among the Awakened; although most of them have their origins in mystic practices, Technocrats often use these phrases too, if only for clarity’s sake.

---

学徒(apprentice)：一名在训练的早期阶段中展露抱负或刚觉醒的法师。
若首字母大写(Apprentice)，则是一个秘学九宗用头衔，代表层次较低的传统宗派法师。

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

魔峰(Arete): "Arete"通常发音作ahr-eh-TAY或是AIR-eh-tay，这一词汇代表了足以使法师"通过他的秘艺改写现实"的卓越才能与经受启蒙的意志。(见觉醒，灵知，魔法）

Ascension: Transcendence to a higher state of existence. Seen as both a personal goal (in which the mage achieves self-Ascension) and a global one (in which mages elevate humanity as a whole to an Ascended state).
