Mage

The Way of the Mage

The Magi of Britannia gather in Moonglow, near the Lycaeum, where they can study the ancient mystical scrolls of the Library and further the virtue of Honesty. The strictures of their profession permit Magi to wear only cloth armour and carry either a staff, dagger, or sling. Unconfirmed rumors indicate that the highest Adepts have acquired the use of arcane magical weapons. The primary weapon of the Mage, of course, is magic. As the mage becomes more advanced, more powerful spells can be woven. Some of the greatest spells have been known to literally shake the earth, or raise the dead!

Note: The armour and weapon restrictions are by now mostly of philosophical nature. During the gargoyle war, the drawbacks of this narrow-minded thinking became clear, and the mages of Britannia have opened themselves to all kinds of weapons and armour.

Examples
There have been many famous mages in Britannia's history. Some of them include:
 * Mariah, Companion of the Avatar.
 * Nystul the royal magician.
 * Nicodemus, and Rudyom.
