This article is about the organization. You may be looking for the book, The Mime Order.


The Mime Order, previously known as the Unnatural Assembly, is the collective term for all of the clairvoyants in the London syndicate.

Description[]

The Mime Order was created by its current ruler, the Underqueen known as The Black Moth, on November 1, 2059. The Black Moth is the alias of Paige Mahoney.

Under Paige and Terebellum Sheratan's rule, it has become an alliance between London's clairvoyant syndicate and the members of the Ranthen. Its long-term aim is to overthrow the Sargas family and bring down the Republic of Scion. Paige also has a few amaurotics who work with the Mime Order, such as Leon Wax.

Paige comes up with the name "The Mime Order" in response to Scion's belief in the "natural order" and Jaxon Hall's "Orders of Clairvoyance." She tells the syndicate, "Because our actions will speak loud and clear to Scion, who would never listen to our words, ours will be the Mime Order."

Paige has changed the structure of the syndicate to begin turning it into an army. She ended the traditional system of territories and dens, though she has tried to keep gang members together where possible. Syndicate voyants are now organized into cells. Each is based in one location known only to cell members and the local mime-lord or mime-queen. Mime-lords and mime-queens receive orders through a high commander. It’s been a challenge to force members to limit contact outside their cells. But it's vital because this way anyone who is captured will only be able to betray the whereabouts of a certain number of people.

The Mime Order[]

The Mime Order is forced to go into hiding in an underground crisis facility in the Beneath in II Cohort as Senshield and ScionIDE are unleashed on London. While Paige and her group are fighting Hildred Vance across the country, things are getting steadily worse with so many desperate people trapped together, especially because London voyants are at each other’s throats on the best of days.

When Paige is forced to flee England for the French Republic, Eliza Renton is named interim Underqueen and the Glym Lord is interim Underlord in her place. Scion has reclassified the Mime Order as a terrorist organization, acknowledging the threat they pose. Operation Albion is announced, with the purpose of dismantling the Mime Order.

The Mask Falling[]

After Warden's supposed betrayal, Paige sends Ivy Jacob, Nadine Arnett, and Zeke Sáenz back to London to warn the Mime Order, let the Edinburgh and Manchester syndicates know what's happened, and move the London voyants to the shadow houses. Finally, Paige tells them that Eliza and Glym Lord need to make it their priority to destroy the Senshield scanners. When Zeke asks if they should tell the Ranthen about Warden, Paige says yes. Nadine and Zeke are now members of the Mime Order and they plan to smuggle themselves to the free-world and tell the truth about Scion.
