The Pentagram Society are the most esteemed of wizards in the Magi Guild, one must be a member of the Society to be eligible to be on the Council.
----An order of magic users, only the most devout conjurers can join and be named a [[Mage&action=edit&redlink=1|mage]] – a title of legend. Using their powers to serve the people (and themselves), members of this guild can be proficient in either [[Arcane&action=edit&redlink=1|arcane]] or [[Holy&action=edit&redlink=1|holy]] source magic.
 
== The Guild ==
Believed to have been established by [[Nicantil&action=edit&redlink=1|Nicantil]], the first mage of [[Faewalk&action=edit&redlink=1|Faewalk]] himself, the Pentagram Society’s earliest records only go back so far as two thousand years after the event known as the [[Denial of Nicantil&action=edit&redlink=1|Denial of Nicantil]]. Regardless of this discrepancy, the Society is without any doubt the oldest guild in the world and has representatives in every nation on the [[Nest&action=edit&redlink=1|Nest]] and the [[Unfounded&action=edit&redlink=1|Unfounded]], making it (alongside the Knights of the Sword and Shield) the only society to exist in both continents under the same governance.
 
The Pentagram Society is also noteworthy for their involvement with training non-members, in fact every country has at least one [[Arcane Tower&action=edit&redlink=1|Arcane Tower]] to teach pupils with an aptitude towards magic, teaching them how to utilize their powers to the best of their ability and become a full-fledged mage. Each Arcane Tower is staffed by members of the Society and as such that is where most guildmembers can be found.
 
== Subfactions ==
There are three types of mage in the Pentagram Society: Red, Blue, and White. The Red Mages are those with the training and temperament to partake in outright battle, using their magic as a devastating weapon, earning them the nickname “battle-mages”. Counter to the aggressive nature of the Red Wizards are the Blue Wizards – men and women who devote themselves in protecting others with their arcane prowess. Finally, the newest order of Wizards are the White Wizards, men and woman who, even though they utilize Holy magic, are not members of the Church of Odredba or the Covenant of the Silver Blood and instead chose to be amongst the companionship of the Pentagram Society.
 
== Members ==
While the wizarding towers across Faewalk are constantly feeding the populace with trained mages, few of these men and woman ever become titled as an [[Archwizard&action=edit&redlink=1|archwizard]], a title reserved for the powerful members of the Pentagram Society. As advocates of order and procedure, it’s no surprise that the organization is often bogged down in extensive amounts of paperwork – including rosters listing every mage trained at a school and every individual given the honor to be named archwizard.
 
The bulk of the member of the Pentagram Society are staffed in the arcane towers across Faewalk; newly initiated members of the guild are expected to serve at least several years teaching new students their magic, though this is not always the case. The Society has also been known to send their members out into the world to combat dangers to not only the Society but to [[Existence&action=edit&redlink=1|existence]] in general while others are tasked with safeguarding artifacts of immense power. Regardless, this guild is known for the autonomy of its members and lacks sophisticated structure such as can be found in the Union, its members only expected to serve at a tower or occasionally partake in an assignment sent from their local tower – which is governed in a democratic fashion will all the wizards in residence voting on official matters.
 
== Mages of the Bay ==
The [[Mages of the Bay]] are the Pentagram Society's head hunters, tracking down individuals who use spells, rituals, and incantations that had been copywritten and/or trademarked by the guild.
