[QUOTE="Blackrat, post: 3971127, member: 27761"] More worldbuilding. Info that is probably unrelevant to the life on Doringdel but if you ever decide to use NPC human wizards might come in handy. As you can see from the map both Tir Sigl and Tir Lanan sit on islands. They are magocratic citystates where ones skills in arcane arts dictate the social standing. Those who have no arcane power are serfs who do all the manual labor to keep the mighty fed. In these cities about 15% of the population are wizards or other less freguent arcane casters. Sorcerors are rare even here and their power is considered inferior to the real Wizards. (It's just a cultural thing ;)) The cities are protectet by energydomes which prevent any sentient who can't cast arcane spells to enter or leave. (The spell required to pass this field is Knock. It makes a hole in the field that stays open for 10 minutes allowing the wizard to let in or out those who he deems worthy or necessary.) The "leaders", the highest archmages of these cities are Elendur Nightwalker of Tir Sigl (The mightiest mortal in the whole world and half-shadow elf by race. Also a member of Order of the Dragon) and Malazan the Black of Tir Lanan (A lich who spends most of his time on other planes keeping the denizens of Other Side from invading the material plane). Elendur is the favourite subject of songs and stories told by minstrels across the lands, and therefore even the lowliest peasants know his name. [/QUOTE]
