So pardon me if this is actually somewhere else on the boards, but a search didn't show it.

In Turncoat they dicuss that the Laws were designed to limit the power a wizard can have in mortal politics. I think it was a discussion between Harry and Luccio after she mentioned his Mother.

So were they made because breaking the laws leads you to become evil, or made to prevent wizard interference in mortal politics? If it's the second, why would there be lawbreaker stunts? Why would you start to turn evil?

Is it just because the RPG was made started pre Turncoat?
