Although all Wizards are required to choose and be part of an Institution, there are some that have grown too powerful to enforce any rules upon. Some of these Wizards reject not only rules, but Society entirely.

A variety of people, all of whom are DEEPLY EVIL

"Although they *technically* have "spells" and "reagents" and even pass down "knowledge" the fact that their Magic changes due to intention and raw "feelings" shows how crude their technique truly is." -A note in a grimoire on the magical art of Witches, and why it should be disregarded

some supernote nomad drawings that I shouuuuuld color! Maybe one day! Maybe not one day!

"Angels, Devils, Gods, Demons, Spirits, and so forth. Just call them what they are! NONHUMAN. And thus, beneath us, INHERENTLY!" -Outburst by the Arch Summoner Kendani, made in the Great Boardroom

23rd October here we GOOO :DDD

The daughter of Dr. Isomov, Docha, is following in her father's footsteps, but has not yet reached the heights of his genius in robotic creations. Her father feels that until she "embraces self-indulgence" she will never truly shine as a creator.

The inaccuracy of language around AI is a serious, SERIOUS detriment to understanding. AI that makes a goomba move is not ML, ML is not an LLM, LLMs aren't even image diffusion models! "AI" as an umbrella term for so many disparate technologies is a prime vector for the harm being wrought.

Although looked down on by other Wizards, and forbidden from attaining "Arch Mage" status, there is no debating that Warlocks can amass and exert immense power rapidly. Perhaps it is the rapidity and lack of full understanding of that power that so often leads to such short, terminal, careers.

"She's so wonderfully volatile and effective, isn't she? Perhaps I'll put her up on the mantle above the fireplace, when I'm done with her." -Cynthia, The Snow Queen

"You must understand, that even though in many ways they are the opposite of the Wizards, the Witches are NOT on our side." "Then how are they the opposite? What do they oppose?" "Bureaucracy." -Advice from an Elder to his son

"Eyes are the window to the soul. Also look out for the fingers and the hands. In general try to be aware of anything that shows the body is actually a demonic construct, as they do not TRULY understand what it is to be human." -Advice on Demon Aquisition, for novice Warlocks

Travelers on the road alone should avoid travelers on the road alone. -Old proverb

Although encouraged to take on "traditional" Adventurer aesthetics, some adventuring AI prefer to take on more esoteric shapes and methods of hunting monsters, for hard to explain reasons.

"You say I'm not a real person? Hard to prove, philosophically. But after you are dead and buried, I will remain, and I will put the point in my favor." -Quote from the AI Adventurer "Roseless Thorn Adrift on a Sea of Gore"

Although made up of highly advanced Magi-Tech, Ai Adventurers are consistently awful at using technology themselves. They will always deny this fact, when pressed.

One of the many missed opportunities. It's been years since I tried and failed to work on this comic. I might show more if I find the originals as they should be around. I'm snipping these from Instagram ^^

Remember, true Demons take on only the SUPERFICIAL FORM of humanity. They emulate our speech, our actions, our emotions. It is all a mask. No matter what they look like, what they say, or what you feel... Remember your humanity. Reject theirs. -Warlock Teacher Fen

For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught To say the things he truly feels And not the words of one who kneels 🎵

Although only higher-level wizards can do so, the act of animating an object provides a convenient and tractable tool. Interestingly, the object often retains and manifests the "intent" of those that used it previously. It may be discarded through removing the magical weave, whenever desired.

Used in "Disposable Strikes", Tracers are capable of short teleportation bursts, have tracking abilities, and lifespans of five days. Grown in clusters as needed, they are immensely effective at taking out single targets with very little cost to The Company. Sometimes called "The Ideal Employee".

Rare and despised, Demonkin are the byproducts of Demonic and Human ancestry. While Demons are powerful and alien, Demonkin are disappointingly mundane. They have an unlikely ally in Rogue Ai. The Ai delights in finding and fostering Demonkin. Eradicate when found. -World Wide Wizarding Almanac

"I see now that those I hate are simply products of their environment. It is not them I need to destroy, but the world that shaped them." -Cynthia, The Snow Queen

Acceptable Quarterly Losses has updated!

Although magical energy enters the world passively, there are points of Energy Congregation that can produce creatures and items beyond what is readily available. Delving these places of power is a requirement for most Wizards that wish to move past the Intermediate Stage of Magic. Few advance.

-Operating Heavy Class Magical Items without a License is a class D violation. -All HCMI must be catalogued. You will be compensated at market value. -Some Beings are catalogued as HCMI. They must be Bound or reduced to components if found. -Operators will be dispatched to enforce the above.

The Dragons, Lesser Gods, and Demons have all been subdued. The Energy of the world has been subverted to flow through Proper Channels. The Age of Wizards is upon us, and with the Guidelines in place, it shall never end. "Progress shall always Progress" -Shareholder Letter from The Company
