==Prestige Societies==
Prestige societies are groups of students and former students, <span style="color:#FFA500">often (always?) lead by an archmage which have their own sanctum and teach a prestige class on often on Saturdays.</span> So far it seems each student must belong to no more than one and almost all join one. The following is the information we have on the assorted societies.

====The Lotus====
This society is based on the idea of Eastern internal alchemy and self-modification. It focuses on manipulating the flow of chi, applying magic item theory to one's own form. This is one of the very few societies that knows the secret of Living Alchemy. Anyone may join, and after a one year trial period applicants become full members and are taught living alchemy. Members who drop out of Scholomance are allowed to continue studying at lotus sanctum. Carl, the Lotus Grandmaster, <span style="color:#FFA500">has implied that this is his own subtle effort to try and deal with and counter the evil way Scholomance runs</span>. All members are expected to teach and help any other member who asks as well as be a good student for those who teach them. Carl clams the Lotus is "Old. Older than the first yogi or the first whisper of the Tao.".

====The Society of the Archmagi====
This very exclusive society only takes one student for each year, the student who appears to be best out of those who have no society at the end of the first week.

''AKA Nemesis AKA Adversary AKA The Left Hand''
These are demonologists and the primary rivals of Dextra Domini. They are very dangerous, <span style="color:#FFA500">often unstable and insane</span>. They serve as a principle justification for the evils of Dextra Domini. Says Domino: "They a danger to themselves and others. They try to bind demons as slaves and often reach further than is safe. They usually get themselves killed rather than killed by other students. Those that don't are... Well, evil. They sometimes enslave non-human students just because they can."
