Every culture has its leaders, both obvious and covert. Surrounded by masses remaining content in mediocrity and status quo, the Promethean Society has advanced civilization since time immemorial. Like our namesake bringing fire to humanity, we visit enlightenment, technology and leadership to contemporary society. Also like our namesake, we aren't fond of eagles.
The Society embraces and cultivates the best and the brightest, welcoming
applicants of all social standings. We are both the white hats and the black
hats of history. Mediocrity is not acceptable. Members commonly identify
themselves as inventors, engineers, scientists, rulers, intellectuals,
tomb raiders explorers, adventurers, philanthropists, artists,
limerick poets writers, architects, evil geniuses
philosophers and would-be despots political science majors.
Think secret society for mad scientists.
Discretion is a standing value of the Society. One shall never be asked to disclose the location of secret bases nor to justify attempts at world domination. Morality optional. Quarrels between arch-rivals are to remain non-violent within the confines of Society events. Death rays absolutely prohibited from meetings due to previous incidents.
