Enchantress/Thaumaturgy
Thaumaturgy
Why?
This background represents characters that have been formally educated in thaumaturgy at a dedicated school such as the Heptagram.
While I have no problem with the system in Exalted 2nd edition I didn’t like how necessary it was to spend additional bonus points on thaumaturgy given that it's weak compared to most occult charms and most importantly that many exalt sorcerers are supposed to have had knowledge of it before learning Terrestrial Circle sorcery.
If anyone running a mortals game would be willing to test this background I'd be much obliged.
