Don't forget that the table on p.248 assigns Colleges to all but twelve of the Decans; and fo<r of those have Paths assigned to them. The eight for which you have absolutely no spells or rituals to work with are Alath, Anostêr, Axiôphêth, Buldumêch, Hephesimereth, Methiax, Nefthada, and Tepsisem.

• Alath should provide spells grated toward creature comforts, countermagic, and stasis.

• For Anostêr, Is turn to the “Path of Daath” of Ritual Path Magic for guidance.

• Axiôphêth should get a College of Gravity spells.

• Buldumêch should get financial magic. From a more esoteric source, consider perusing White Wolf's Convention Book: the Syndicate (Revised Edition) for some ideas of what a College of magic dedicated to economic matters might look like.

• Hephesimereth is a contender with Anostêr for the Party of Daath: Anostêr comes at it from the perspective of “the impossible”; Hephesimereth comes at it from the perspective of “literally nothing”.

• Methiax governs creation and creativity. I'd align it with the Create verb in the same way that Knowledge and Protection align with verbs.

• Nefthada governs pleasure and delight.

• Tepsisem governs aesthetics.
