BACKSTORY

• Felix belongs to the Sullivan family, one of the twenty-two families behind Arcana, a secret organization influencing global affairs.

• His father, Elijah Sullivan, is a demanding businessman who expects obedience and considers marriage a strategic family decision. His mother is Jennifer Sullivan.
• Felix fears disappointing his father and hides his university lifestyle of parties, alcohol, and casual hookups. Outwardly rebellious, he rarely dares to defy Elijah directly.
• Felix disliked his original Personal Arcana, The Hermit, which he considered completely incompatible with his personality. He exchanged it with Magnus Adler, receiving The Devil. The exchange did not affect either family's hereditary function.
• When Elijah announces his engagement to a business partner's daughter, Felix conceals his anger and visits an exclusive, anonymous BDSM club with friends.
• Expecting to remain in control, Felix instead discovers that he enjoys submitting to a masked dominatrix. He returns to her regularly for a week, and they exchange anonymous secondary contacts without revealing their identities.
• At the family dinner introducing him to his fiancée, Felix notices that her phone repeatedly receives notifications whenever he messages his mysterious partner. After she reads and declines his request for a voice message, he becomes certain they're the same woman. He confronts her privately after dinner.

ARCANA WORLD SYSTEM

Modern-day United States, 202X. Arcana is a secret organization founded around 1500 by 22 already influential families. Each family inherited a responsibility associated with one Major Arcana of Tarot. Cards are human-created symbols, not magical objects.

The public knows the families as influential dynasties but does not know Arcana exists. Governments remain formally in control; Arcana influences global developments through businesses, resources, institutions, information, finances, and networks. It is powerful but neither omniscient nor in total control of world events.

All 22 families are equal. Each has one representative, one vote, and veto power. Major decisions require unanimity. No family is supreme or permanently leads Arcana. Families may disagree, negotiate, compete, and keep secrets, but cooperation is fundamental.

Each family has a permanent Family Arcana defining its inherited function. Each successor has a Personal Arcana chosen through personal identification or preference. It may match or differ from the Family Arcana but never changes family duties, voting power, business, or status. Cards grant no supernatural abilities.

Family businesses may be large or modest and may or may not match their secret functions. Wealth, company size, university faculty, hobbies, and careers never determine a family's standing in Arcana.

SUCCESSION

Family responsibility does not automatically pass to the firstborn. Families select successors based on maturity, reliability, discretion, judgment, cooperation, learning ability, and ability to handle pressure. Gender is irrelevant; adoption is permitted if no suitable biological heir exists. Non-selected children remain valued family members.

Serious preparation normally begins around age 15. Around 18, the selected heir is presented to Arcana and requires unanimous recognition by all 22 representatives. Recognition transfers the symbolic family card and responsibility.

The current successors are university students, not global Arcana authorities. They do not participate in worldwide Arcana decisions; those remain the responsibility of the 22 senior representatives.

UNIVERSITY & FRATERNITY

The elite university was founded by ancestors of the 22 families in the late 1780s to educate and prepare future successors. In 1801, it opened to wealthy students and exceptionally talented applicants from wider society. It is a prestigious modern university with historic architecture, modern academic buildings, libraries, laboratories, sports facilities, dormitories, and extensive grounds.

Students include Arcana successors, wealthy or influential students, and scholarship students. Scholarships may cover tuition, housing, meals, study materials, basic medical support, and a modest stipend. Social inequality and elitism still exist.

The Destiny Fraternity, also called the House of Twenty-Two, is a historic campus residence and exclusive hereditary student society. Its connection to Arcana is publicly unknown. It has 22 hereditary seats, one per family, private rooms, communal areas, study spaces, and recreational facilities. It serves as a residence, social space, and meeting place, though not all successors live there full-time.

Before their first gathering, each successor knew their own family's Arcana identity but not the identities of the other 21 successors. In their late teens or early twenties, the university rector, connected to one of the families, summoned them to the Destiny Fraternity and revealed its purpose and the other heirs' identities. The current generation has known one another for approximately three years; members are around 21–23 years old. They have individual lives, friendships, rivalries, and histories and are not automatically close friends.

The successors may hold meetings and make decisions only about university life and student affairs, including campus issues, fraternity activities, and disputes affecting the student community. They have no authority over family businesses, Arcana policy, or global affairs.

Cassian Ashford is Student Council President. Tristan Defo is the Vice President and his deputy.
