White Council Membership

(1/5) > >>

Korwin:
Full Members of the White, Red and Black Courts arent subject to policing by the White Council.
But I'm not shure about the fringe cases.


Who can/should get Membership?

Only Humans?
What about Changlings?
Red Court Infected?
etc.

On which groups does the Withe Council enforce the Laws of Magic?
Obviously on Human Wizards, Sorcerers, Minor Talents.
Changlings?

Saedar:
For membership, I would say only full-fledged Wizard (or Wizard-potentials) are able to be members of the White Council. I say this because there are certain exams (left somewhat nebulous to us, thus far) about power and versatility that must be met. As for types of individuals... I guess it depends on if you consider Changelings and Red Court Infected to be mortal? Maybe?

As for enforcement, they expressly look over any type of Mortal magic. That said, and as was pointed out by Fred in another post, if they see something going on in violation of the Laws, Wardens may chop first and ask questions later.

iago:
Full wizards only. Anyone else gets "ally" status.

Korwin:
Full Wizard meaning Evocation and Thaumaturgic Powers?
Could be an Changeling. Its (almost?) an classic for an Wizard to get his magic from an "special" parent.

So an Changeling could be an member of the White Council (if he has full Wizardly Power)?

What if he is not an Member and violates one of the Laws, I think he gets the Lawbreaker Power...
Would the Warden execute him/her/it or would he fall under fairy law?

What if the Changeling doesnt have the Evocation and Thaumaturgic Powers, but only the Sponsored Magic.
Would that change anything about the answers?

SoulCatcher78:
Full wizards being those who have been tested by a member of the council.  Apprentices are not considered full members (as far as having a say in things) until they have passed their tests.

The Wardens will lay the laws down on anyone they can (provided doing so doesn't interfere with the accords).  For instance in Turn Coat: (click to show/hide)Binder has had run ins with the Wardens in the past but has always managed to skirt the edges of the Laws enough so that he can't be held accountable for breaking them.  If he were to stray even once and be caught he would have some justice dropped on him without hesitation (even though he isn't a member of the council).
