All these magic users know each other, even if they hate each other, and they meet every so often at a magic user "summit".<br /><br />Come to think of it, that's the model of the magic users in the Dragonlance books, with the Towers of High Sorcery and whatnot.NakiaPopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17406561137170462267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-55053605464794799672011-12-16T14:51:10.124-05:002011-12-16T14:51:10.124-05:00@Angry Lurker - Indeed.

A few solitary practitioners exist, but they generally live in isolated manses and lonely fortresses in the countryside and wilderness.<br /><br />This is in addition to wandering mountebanks, soothsayers, petty conjurers and snake-oil salesmen.Jeremy Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03155761802144571888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-21184635825904515102011-12-16T07:22:03.340-05:002011-12-16T07:22:03.340-05:00The Wheel of Time reference is good and their fear...The Wheel of Time reference is good and their fear of men who use magic...The Angry Lurkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01227314379603418332noreply@blogger.com
