Mir does unit worship of different deities.  True they
do not unit the worship all the time but worshiping
multiply Gods in Mir, and the Priesthoods are not
separate in Mir The different priest of different
Gods, while they have individual priesthoods, are
found in the Brotherhood of Sorcery.

What is your definition of Group magic.  Under my
definition Mir practices it all the time.  Also Mir
uses the Librarians and the Archivist of Mirabalpur,
who are not mages,  in many magical castings.  The
current uses of the Archivist and Librarians in the
study of the Obeah, or the opening of the Dreaming,
the most common being the wards placed on the hidden
vaults of the Library and Archives.
