Reality is not fixed, but rather a set of agreed upon assumptions enforced by the collective will of humanity, the Sleepers. Mages are those people who recognize that reality is not static, and realize that through the application of their will, usually channeled through rituals or other similar "mystical" or "scientific" practices, reality can be changed.
The specifics of their own belief, called a Paradigm, guides them into joining either one of the nine mystical Traditions (an ancient fellowship of mages of varying points of view), one of the five conventions of the Technocracy (an organization founded at the beginning of the age of reason to bring science and truth to humanity), or to strike out on their own as Disparates (unaffiliated mages), Marauders (mages whose paradigm has overwhelmed their sense of reality), or Nephandi (mages seeking to destroy or corrupt the world).
The central theme of Mage is the search for Ascension, not only for the individual but for all of mankind. What Ascension is, and how it is achieved is purposely left undefined.
Offical book Mage: The Ascension
A Sleeper is is a mortal who is not aware of magic in the world and their own inner power.
In the World of Darkness, some humans have a chance to become something more. They have a chance to understand the world like never before. They travel to the Realms Supernal, and return Awakened. These Awakened people are called Mages, or the Wise. They are the protagonists for Mages.
A group of mages is called a cabal.
Again you can ask anything about mages here.
