That's odd.

Another aspect of Circle life is the fraternity. When a mage becomes an enchanter, he may ally himself with a fraternity. These are cliques that cross Circle boundaries, mages of common interests and goals who band together to ensure that their voice is heard within the College of Magi in Cumberland. The largest fraternities currently are:
- the Loyalists, who advocate loyalty and obedience to the Chantry.
- the Aequitarians, who advocate temperance and follow a distinct code of conduct which they believe all mages should hold themselves to.
- the Libertarians, a growing fraternity, publicly maintaining greater power for the Circles but secretly advocating a complete split from the Chantry-a dangerous opinion, naturally.
- the Isolationists, a small group that advocates withdrawing to remote territories in order to avoid conflicts with the general populace.
- the Lucrosians, who maintain that the Circle must do what is profitable first and foremost. They prioritize the accumulation of wealth, with the gaining of political influence a close second.
So far, an alliance between the Loyalists and Aequitarians has prevented the Libertarians from gaining much headway, but there are signs that the Aequitarians may throw their support in with the Libertarians. If that happens, many mages predict it will come to civil war among the Circles.--From The Circle of the Magi: A History, by First Enchanter Josephus.

Where did the loyalists all go? I would guess based on the epilogue that the bulk of the Aequitarians and even the Lucrosians and Isolationists decided to rise up and join the libertarians to break from the, but did they kill the loyalists? Did the loyalists laeve to go back to the templars and chantry?
I want to know.

But realistically I know that would never work. What would you do with non-mages born in Mageland? And tearing mages born into non-magic families away from them to join Mageland seems just as bad as what the templars already do to gifted kids. I take it back. Libertarian all the way. The normals will just have to get used to mages.

Some chick "accidentally" tweeting a picture of her ****** at Adam Howden.
*facepalms*
And this is why people set their pages to private. (Never used twitter so I'm not sure if you can do that there).
Were they nice tatas at least?
Did I somehow miss the big sun shaped brand on his forehead?

The Loyalists may have revolted too.
Think about it logically. The Loyalists were probably the largest faction in the Circle due to self-preservation. Being a Liberatarian is a dangerous opinion to have. I'll bet a lot of mages were Loyalist "by default," because it was the easiest and safest opinion to have.
But after what happened in Kirkwall demonstrated the lengths to which the templars were willing to go, it's likely the Loyalists turned too. It's hard to be loyal or obedient to the order that's just proved they'll kill Circle mages even when the fault doesn't lie with them. Sure there are crazies like Keili out there, but your average mage is still a person. And when a person is cornered with the choice of certain death vs. fighting back, they'll fight back.

He isn't tranquil. He is however a merchant for the tower and thus a Formari.

Some are Chantry-appologists.
Keili probably was the first to throw herself on a Templar's blade (if she hasn't turned Tranquil)
Perhaps some of the more extreme Libertarians and Resolutionists killed them.

Hmm, thinking more in deep on it, Lucrosians seem to be the ones that would be most likely to improve mages situation in the long run. Make mages seen more outside circles thus making people used to them and heighten the influence of the circles.
Aquetarians want the status quo and Libertarians are taking the short route.
You'll allways have the power-hungry idiot who screws everybody over.

Yes. Some are. But it can't possibly be that all of the Loyalists are as insane as Keili. If the majority of the mages were like that, the suicide rate would be astronomical.
Leliana says in Seb's Act 3 quest that the whole world has its eyes on Kirkwall. When it does blow up, and the mages and templars start coming to blows, my guess is that for most mages, it become a question of self-preservation rather than ideology. Most people aren't like Anders or Keili, willing to die over their extreme opinions. Most people will try simply to survive.
