| • Ally or Apprentice: Rank 1. You have a close alliance with Khelben, and are welcome at Blackstaff Tower. He may be watching you to see if you would be a good apprentice, or you may simply find your aims in alignment with his own. Alternately, you may be an apprentice that has withdrawn from active participation in Blackstaff Tower's goings-on. • Apprentice: Rank 3. x |
“A spell uncast that might have been put to good benefit is as useless as a spell wastefully cast.”
A network of former and current apprentices of Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun, and those the Blackstaff values as allies and friends.
Overview
A new but surprisingly influential group, Blackstaff trains his apprentices to do more than wield magic. He inculcates in them with his own philosophy: that mages ought to be using magic as a common tool, but also to protect those without the Art from those who have it. As such, Blackstaff's apprentices (current and former) very frequently present themselves in opposition to those who use their magic to take advantage of common or non-magical folk.
Goals and Philosophy
xxx
Blackstaff's apprentices are expected, above all things, to do the following:
- To further the proliferation of arcane magic into the hands of those without access to it.
- To protect those without magic from those mages who would take advantage of them.
- To assist Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun in his goals and aims.
