This is an Anthology for White Wolf's World of Darkness RPG Mage the Ascension. This collection of short stories are all about mages and how they interact with the world.

Of all White Wolf's game fiction Mage was/is my favorite. Mages are generally normal people who know how the world works and have the ability to bend reality to their will. Some of these short stories were later expanded into full novles. Fun and cool concept.
