I was wondering...how many groups of sages or sage esque groups are there?
We have the Ancient Sages, who appear to have assisted with Hylia in the creation of the MS, and sealed Ganondorf in the Twilight Realm on the CT, and we have the Shrine Maidens in FSA who, if they're like the maidens of ALttP, not true sages, but have alot of their power.
On the Adult Timeline, we have the Ancient Sages like in the Child Timeline, but we also have the Awakened Sages, who the Hero of Time
has to awaken(maybe due to Ganondorf killing the Ancient Sages?), who then seal Ganondorf away. We also have the Sages of Prayer in TWW, who have the purpose of praying to restore the MS to it's full power, and also is one of the smallest sage groups ever, with their being only two.
On the Downfall Timeline, we have the Ancient Sages and Awakened Sages as on the AT, but after that we have the Seven Wise Men(who are called sages in the JP, but ''wise men'' is a good way to differentiate them from other sage groups IMO), the group of sages who seal the SR during the Imprisoning War to halt Ganon's forces. These sages appear to be older Hylian men. We then have the maidens in ALttP, who are not true sages due to their lack of power in comparison to the Seven Wise Men, but appear to have some of their power due to being of the same bloodline, as they manage to atleast let Link gain entry to Ganon's Tower. We then after have the Seven Sages of Sealing in the backstory of ALBW who help the hero of that period seal Ganon in darkness. We then have the Painted Sages in ALBW itself, who help Link awaken the ToC inside himself.
So, we have:
Child Timeline: Ancient Sages>Shrine Maidens
Adult Timeline: Ancient Sages>Awakened Sages>Sages of Prayer>Lokomo
Downfall Timeline: Ancient Sages>Awakened Sages>Seven Wise Men>Maidens>Oracles>Seven Sages of Sealing>Painted Sages
Itallics refer to groups that are either debatably sages due to not being mentioned explicitly ingame as being sages, or confirmed to not be sages.
Some people disagree with this due to thinking that the IW sages are the OoT sages in current canon or other things, but I'd like to know what you guys think.
