From the academies of Greece, the cults of Rome, the scriptoriums of Christian monks, the minarets of Islamic sages, and the stone circles of the ancients, the mystery of magic whispers to those precious few who possess the Gift. The Order of Hermes, the legacy of the greatest wizards of Mythic Europe, listens well. The Mysteries dares Ars Magica players to delve deeper in the minds of magi than ever before by revealing a new level of intrigue and magic at work within the Order of Hermes. This new supplement for playing Hermetic magi exposes a treasure-trove of secrets from the discoverers of magic and the hidden sects within the Order. Dozens of new spells, lab activities, and Virtues bring medieval science, magic, and mysticism to life, including the marvels of alchemy, dream magic, astrology, and daemonology.

Grimorium Verum is one of the most notorious handbooks of black magic -- one of the few that deals openly with spirits of darkness. People have long sought the aid of non-physical beings; the biblical king Solomon in particular had a reputation since ancient times for commanding demons. There are many texts purporting to reveal Solomon's methods, but most are extremely complicated and difficult. Grimorium Verum is one of the easier texts, but also one of the most sinister. It includes a catalog of specific demons and how to draw on their powers. This new critical edition includes a fresh translation based on all the major sources, complete French and Italian texts, and 5 other appendices.
