Description and Customs:
The Ash Union is a loose group of largely unaffiliated spellcasters, adepts, and talismongers in Chicago. The Union was originally formed by a magician named Ash who had a talismonger shop in northern Chicago, outside of the Containment Zone erected by Ares. He decided to try helping those displaced by the CZ as well as to investigate what was going on, and he turned to the remaining shadowrunners in the city for help. Since then the group has become the de factor “runner initiatory group” within the city
.
After Ash’s death last year due to age, Lothan assumed leadership and has maintained the group. He’s turned the groups purpose toward investigating whether or not the bugs are truly gone from Chicago, dealing with the many other magical threats that still exist in the area, and finding a way to try and cleanse the local astral plane. Once any magically active character gains Lothan at Loyalty 1 or better, that character will be invited to join the Union
following the normal rules for joining an initiatory group, and gaining all the usual benefits from being a member.
