Symphony: the guild of everything the city sees, hears, and believes, run by gods who live in Nous.

Every Feed

Symphony governs entertainment, fashion, news, gambling, vice, Nous, and blood sport. Its patron is Saint Lyra, and full members carry the particle lai.

Symphony owns every feed, every fashion line, and every celebrity. Its broadcast personalities, gladiators, and idols may be the only culture shared across all of Deshret.

The Pantheon

Symphony's executives are beings that live in Nous and model themselves on a pantheon from the old world. They love to watch from cyberspace, and they deal with flesh-bound citizens when they feel like it: sponsoring favourites as their "divine patrons" and making extravagant appearances everywhere, from a slum dive bar to a Great House feast.

Seven gods are active. Two more have vanished and their fate is unknown: Zeus, the former CEO, and Hades, who ran finance.

Aphrodite: fashion. Swans and doves.
Ares: physical sports, blood sports, and gyms. The boar and the wolf.
Apollo: television broadcasts and production. Ravens.
Athena: head of security. Owls.
Hera: talent scouting and management. Peacocks.
Dionysus: redacted. Bulls.
Hermes: Nous infrastructure. The tortoise.
