Magic in the New Age

The Original Inquisition
The Original Inquisition was soon after the Tiamat Crisis subsided. Radical prosecutors convinced most of the world's populace that Tiamat was brought into this world with the help of powerful and uncontrolled magic. And those with such power needed to be destroyed or imprisoned. The height of it lasted around two decades. To which end all the Chapters of the League were raided and mostly destroyed or abandoned. Some older mages survived this and have gone into hiding because of it, even too scared to show themselves in Ombrellia in case old Prosecutors found out about them.

Magical Education
These days to get an education in Magic of any sort is rare. Its usually sanctioned and monitored heavily by governments or ruling leadership. Mages that practice and provide their services are also monitored in such a way. Not before a group of Templars come into town asking questions about such mages. Some basic understanding of the arcane can be learned in the Oaken Halls University in the city of Cynthia, but never practiced under its roof. That leaves Ombrellia. The Lyceum of Arcanum. This school of magic stands as the sole entity that educates the public in arcane practices. Its not easy to get into however and can become expensive for the uninitiated.
