Though they do not look to start turmoil, by nature they assume the world is a chaotic and dangerous place. They thus look to control events and are constantly preparing for inevitable future battles. They cultivate influence and hoard resources for whatever crisis lay on the horizon. The structure of their house is strictly hierarchical, with carefully designed codes of subordination and dominance. While their rigid structure makes them very powerful as a house, their focus on intense competition makes them individually powerful as well. They have tried to dominate the entire Order of Hermes at least once, and are regarded as clannish and untrustworthy by the other Houses. __TOC__"@en . "Coeris"@en . . . "House Tremere was one of several Houses within the Order of Hermes. It was a very powerful house, having been largely responsible for the destruction of the druidic House Diedne in the Schism War, although the actual purging of Diedne was carried out by Houses Quaesitori and Flambeau in 1012. The House was abnormally powerful given that it seemed to consist largely of sorcerers rather than true mages. Even Tremere himself was said by some to have been a sorcerer."@en .
