Reformed Sconics

The Reformed Sconics are named as one of several sect labels used among avout (monastic scholars) who follow the Sconic Discipline (Sconism practice). In accounts set during a Convox (rare mass assembly), a Fifth Sconic notes that, after the Reconstitution (post‑Sack re‑founding), Sconic groups splintered and argued over names such as “Sconics,” “Reformed Sconics,” and “New Sconics.” They eventually adopted a numbering system instead.

Context and first mention

  • The label is mentioned in discussion at a Concent (walled monastic complex) hosting a Convox, alongside other Sconic names. A Fifth Sconic present there remarks that differences between numbered Sconic groups (e.g., Fours, Fives, Sixes) are not pertinent to the immediate inquiry.

Description and scope

  • “Reformed Sconics” appears as a sect name within the broader Sconic Discipline. No doctrine, leadership, or practices specific to this label are described in the available account.
  • The numbering system that replaced name-claims is said to extend into the low twenties; “Fives” are noted as well‑established. How the earlier name‑based groups map onto the numbered ones is not explained.

Relationships and affiliations

  • Part of the Sconic tradition within the mathic world, alongside other Sconic groupings whose members are avout.
  • Mentioned contemporaneously with other Sconic labels (“Sconics,” “New Sconics”) that were disputed before the shift to numbers.

Current status

  • Within the described Convox context, numbered designations are in practical use. “Reformed Sconics” is presented as a historical or superseded label; current usage, if any, is not specified.

Notes

  • Naming: Only the plural “Reformed Sconics” is attested; no article form is cited in the source passage. The page does not list bare “Sconics” to avoid collision with the general tradition covered at Sconism.
Summary:

A sect label within the Sconic Discipline, cited as one of several names claimed by Sconic splinters after the Reconstitution; the community later moved to numbered designations (e.g., Fives), and the label appears largely historical.
