coven
Thirteen practicing together
A coven is a group of witches who meet and practice together, traditionally numbering thirteen.
The word carries associations with secrecy and ritual: The coven gathered at midnight.
More loosely, coven describes any tight-knit group with shared interests or purpose, often with a hint of conspiracy or exclusivity: her coven of advisors.
