Yes. And it is /horrible/.

Though horrible does not necessarily mean illegal.

I'd wager the only way to take the power is in an illegal fashion.  If that wasn't the case, bad wizards would just take other wizards power without fear of punishment.  It would happen all the time.

I could see a technicality if it didn't kill them. But whom would bother to work out such a thing when its probably far easier to do otherwise? I mean, the council d-bags maybe, but not as a punishment. Then again if cowl is correct about the council being corrupted, perhaps so.

Another thing to consider.  If you could take someone's powers permanently without harming them, wouldn't the Council do that instead of cutting off a warlock's head?  Just doesn't jive
