This article is about the group of present and past houses that comprise the Order of Hermes. For the 1994 Supplement by Wizards of the Coast, see Houses of Hermes Book.

Dans la plupart des sagas d’Ars Magica, l’Ordre d’Hermès est composé de douze « maisons ». (Depending on the time period of the saga, there may be thirteen instead, plus any unofficial Houses the players may have invented for themselves)

Houses are groups of magi who are somehow related; they are something like noble families, though their members (usually) trace their lineage through apprenticeship rather than blood.

Les Douze Maisons

House Bjornaer : A Mystery Cult descended from Germanic magi and capable of taking the form of an animal called the "heartbeast."[1]
House Bonisagus : A True Lineage decended from the founder of the Order. This house is a mix of magical researchers and statesmen.
House Criamon : A Mystery House of enigmatic magi who frequently work in riddles and question the nature of reality.
House Ex Miscellanea : An eclectic House of magi from many different traditions, some of them non-Hermetic. In ArM5, this is a Societas.
House Flambeau : A Society of warrior magi, often specializing in the Arts of Ignem or Perdo.
House Guernicus : A True Lineage of Quaesitors, the judges of the Order. In ArM4 and earlier, it was known as House Quaesitor.
House Jerbiton : A Society of magi interested in Mundane culture, arts and society.
House Mercere : The messengers and merchants of the Order, this True Lineage includes many unGifted redcaps and some magi.
House Merinita : A Mystery Cult interested in the Faerie Realm.
House Tremere : A highly organized, hierarchical House with strong political influence. In ArM5, it is a True Lineage.
House Tytalus : A Society of magi whose members share a philosophy of thriving on conflict.
House Verditius : A Mystery House whose members excel in making enchanted devices.

In addition, earlier in the history of Mythic Europe, there was a thirteenth House called House Diedne. It was destroyed in the Schism War. House Diedne is also referred to as the Nameless House.[citation needed]
