Caros Siol, Cauróst

On the Magi

Magic, in its purest essence, is to be esteemed as both sanctified and perilous; a rare and formidable endowment granted unto few.

 

Let it be rendered into record that, though the interdictions of Cauróst concerning the practice of sorcery yet endure, there exists no proscription against the presence of those attuned to druidism or the void. Thus, both magi may, without transgression, dwell within the city’s walls, their mere being accounted to no violation of the law’s intent.

 

No citizen bound to the arts of either verdant or Voidal craft shall suffer the stain of prejudice; yet the exercise of such puissance shall be held beneath the steady gaze of oversight, that its splendour transgress not into peril, nor its purpose stray from rightful restraint.

 

 

Amendments to Legislature

Existing laws are located within their respective edicts and it is highly encouraged to review the Ivory Edict in full. Below are audits agreed upon by the High Prince and Halerir.

 

 

New

Section V. The Arcane & Supernatural

2.) Reckless Casting

The practice of shamanism, Voidal, and druidic arts are sanctioned within the bounds of Cauróst, yet it is not to be wielded wantonly nor in excess. The creation of Voidal tears, the destruction of land outside of combat, the construction of unauthorized structures, and other acts of folly or taint shall be subject to punishment.

[Rig 17580]

Khelman reads the Magus Act of 256 like a newspaper in front of his fireplace, a smoking pipe hanging off his bottom lip, smoke wafting from its edge. 

[Navigator 4260]

Ryad ponders if casting malflame recklessly is allowed.
