~ Foreword ~

 

This Act establishes the process through which practitioners of the voidal arts may obtain permission to utilise their magics and outlines the circumstances under which to do so.  Furthermore, the lawful jurisdiction of the Father Circle’s Coven of Thorns in apprehending rogue mages within the borders of Elvenesse, who lack the specified permit or otherwise breach the terms of said permit, is elaborated upon. 

 


 

Article I: The Permit Scheme

 

1.1. Application

In order to obtain expressed permission to utilise their magic(s), a practitioner of the voidal arts must apply to the office of the Lord Exarch so to receive a documented legal permit.  Furthermore, said applicant must be a documented citizen of the Princedom of Elvenesse.

 

1.2. Process

A practitioner of the voidal arts in order to obtain a permit must submit themselves to a review of the judiciary.  A representative of the Coven of Thorns maintains the right to advise the sitting judge(s) on the details of magecraft and the applicant in question.  The applicant is further subject to answer questions levied on the following grounds:

 

  • Their knowledge of the voidal arts, the number of and which are magics at their disposal and their relative experience with said magics.

 

  • Their reasoning behind applying for a permit and their intent in utilising their magic, should their application be accepted.

 

  • Their interactions with the populace of the Princedom of Elvenesse and by extension any criminal records they might have.

 

1.3. Conditions

Should a practitioner’s application be accepted, they are explicitly subject to utilise their magic(s) on the following grounds:

 

  • By lawful permission of a member of Government or by will of the Sovereign, in a specific undefinable instance.

 

  • For military personnel, by lawful permission of a sanctioned officer within military exercises, both offensive or defensive. 

 

  • Out of necessity for the purpose of defending one's self, family and property from unlawful assault.

 

1.4. Revocation 

In the event a practitioner of the voidal arts, who holds a legal permit, violates the conditions under which they might utilise their magic(s), they will be charged for acting in contempt of the law established within the Indor Tiran (Criminal Law - 7.1) and may be subject to the revocation of their permit.

 

Article II: Coven Jurisdiction

 

2.1. Enforcement

The Father Circle’s Coven of Thorns are installed with the right to act as Sentinels of the law in the apprehension of rogue mages within the Princedom of Elvenesse.  This is an exclusive privilege.  Any act of enforcement beyond the apprehension of rogue mages shall be deemed an act of vigilantism (Criminal Law - 4.7).  Furthermore, all exertions of force must be proportionate to the compliance of the apprehended suspect.  

 

2.2. Rogue Mages

A rogue mage is defined as one who acts in contempt of the law established within the Indor Tiran (Criminal Law - 7.1). 

 

2.3. Accountability 

The Father Circle’s Coven of Thorns will immediately report their arrests to the office of the Lord Exarch.  Their activities shall also be regulated by the Lord Marshal and his officers, who maintain authority in dismissing the Coven from legal operations.

 


Signed,

HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS, Fëanor of House Sylvaeri, High Prince of Elvenesse,

Wielder of the Crown of Malinor, Protector of the Almenodrim and Irrinites.
