Overview

Hardly anything definite about the Sorcerers Association has come to light, although it is said to hold a key part in containing ruptures in Japan's supernatural order. Its influence runs deep enough that Saint-Germain counts the group as a true menace to his designs, an entity able to wreck the discreet collection of yokai powers that he and his underling Red Baron have been conducting.

Role

When reports surfaced of agents wielding kozuka knives forged from the Asura sword to steal the abilities of yokai and gifted humans such as Momo, the association sprang into action. It circulated a warning among all of its contacts, aiming to obstruct the foes and frustrate the drive against people who carry such powers.

Notable Members

The association's roster stays officially unverified, with not one member formally named, though several individuals linked to the supernatural are implied to belong. The spirit mediums Manjiro and Seiko Ayase are reported to have contacted an exorcist guild of theirs regarding the power collectors, later hearing that the association had sent out assorted alerts. Likewise, Payase and Kashimoto, a pair who gather cursed objects, split from Seiko to chase their own leads, assuring her that they would touch base with every quarter. The word sorcerer itself first cropped up when Turbo Granny presumed Okarun was on their side after the spirit-medium robes Seiko had given him weakened her grip as she tried to wriggle free.
