The Unwaking Coven
Never sleeping, never waking, that is where they sit, on the line between both. A tightrope walk of pure power.The Unwaking coven are a witch group from Kaechaek who are the sworn enemy of The Spooks. Witches and mages that channel the power of The Quori and The Nocta Mori to make prophecies and train themselves to be forever caught in a space of lucid waking where they are constantly dreaming in their day to day life which gives them high levels of power. This also grants them near immortality in a revenant state as they are simply reformed by the space they die in... whether that is the quori or nocta mori. Spooks have taught themselves a ritual to create a space of constant waking, a pit to keep unwaking in so that they are caught in an immortal torment... but unable to hurt anyone else or give power to either side in the constant conflict for Kaechaek. The Unwaking Witches forever seek power and deals, believing that in becoming more numerous and powerful then they can further and further manipulate the quori and nocta mori.

Structure
The Unwaking Witches operate in a hive mind, always aware of one another and their dreams. This means they often seem like chaotic wanderers and anarchic characters but it is advised that the unwaking are to always be feared as they always wander and they always move in groups.
The Unwaking do have a hierarchy based on their power as awarded by The Quori and The Nocta Mori they served. The roles were named after matriarchal roles to reflect their all-female group and their general family message.
The group are organised as follows:
- The Great-Grandmother: The single unwaking witch who leads the coven, the original unwaking conceived in Inkbowl.
- Grandmothers: The most powerful of Unwaking that serve directly underneath the Great-Grandmother, Tirwana The Endless is a grandmother tier unwaking.
- Mothers: Strong Unwaking that are active in Kaechaek often train the unwaking beneath them in the order and many aspire to reach the rank of grandmother, Mother Mordred is a well known unwaking witch who often acts as the organiser and head of the organisation due to her high level of activity 'in the field'.
- Daughters: Unwaking that serve directly underneath the mother witches, have got enough power to be given training and work.
- Grand-daughters: the lowest tier of Unwaking witch, still not to be trifled with but are trying to prove themselves to earn the attention of a mother unwaking.
