[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 83123, member: 11"] [b]Re: Whew! Just caught up![/b] Well, two things. . . First the Conclave has been organization has been retroactively changed - so that Academy info (in regards to that) out of date - rather it should read that the colors white, red and black seem "cursed" and bad things happen to watch-mages who are given those colors - so in the last fifteen years or so the colors have basically been eliminated from use - but Richard the Red having graduates in around 542 H.E still fell int he time where red was more of an option. The "curses" for these three colors are (and under stand this is a superstition and there is no evidence of a true curse and no official Academy rule against it): Black: Tend to Go Evil, Red: Tends to Abandon the Academy agenda and either sequester themselves or do their own thing, and White tends to die horrible deaths early in their career. I plucked it from another source (wuith tweaking) and it just kind of came out like that. . The other items have their drawbacks as well - some not as obvious as others - and not as readily noticible at this time. [/QUOTE]
