Sorority



"The Sorority" is the group referred to in the title of Sorority Rites. This is the only name that is used to refer to this group, as confirmed by Yanna Curtis:
"They call themselves “The Sorority” too. No greek stuff. They look like cultist. Speak of sigils. Still parties hard though." 
Myles Stone also mentions that this group uses "this really cool 'S'" as their logo. Could this "S" be something like this, or something else? In the AppSir Discord server, Darius has gone on record to describe the Sorority logo like this: "an S with the TriNemesis outline. the S replacing the TriNemesis eye". In short, an outline of the TriNemesis, but with the cool "S" instead its typical eye.

In the public view, it appears to be a group of girls led by Venice, empowered by a tremendous amount of funding, support, and influence in their school's community, and even outside the school. Yanna has confirmed that this sorority is "backed by the school, the Rotschstein Institute, [and] local politicians." Even Myles Stone had heard a lot about "Venice the smart athletic girl and her all-powerful sorority" within a week of moving into the area. To outside observers, like Yanna and Myles, this amount of influence seemed unnatural (Yanna: "I don't know how they did it.").

Apart from their tremendous local influence and support, The Sorority further differentiates itself from "normal" sororities by their unusual beliefs and cult-like behaviors, which makes sense given their association with the Rotschstein Institute and The Family. During Venice's meeting with the other Sorority girls (before Myles met her outside the mansion), she talked about how "The Family will be pleased" with this "someone new" (Myles) who is "perfect for the ritual" and "already connected" (perhaps connected due to interactions with E.N. and Dere Alpha). Venice also said that The Sorority "has endured for a hundred years" and that soon "what is written in the Guidestones will be a reality." 

There's clearly a lot of history and esoteric ritual associated with The Sorority, and by extension, The Family. Even so, it seems the existence of The Sorority is not vital to The Family's plans, but rather, a means to an end. This is made evident in a chat between Venice and Lilith:
Lilith: Just one? Do you not understand how important this is? That thing in that house, the TriNemesis, holds the key.
Venice: I know. I’ve sent in two girls this week. I’m trying my best. I’m sorry, Aunt Lilith. Perhaps next week I’ll…
Lilith: Nonsense, Venice. Dr. Rotschstein needs more data. Send more people in or I’ll pull the plug on your “sorority”.
 It can't be said for certain whether The Sorority really lasted as long as Venice claims, but it is reasonable to assume that The Family has, at least, and The Sorority could be considered a sort of extension of The Family.
