Ser Carsten

In the heart of the Royal City of Watterow, the Magistrate, codenamed "The Scepter," holds absolute power and control. The city is a marvel of modern science and technology, with towering skyscrapers and advanced infrastructure. However, amidst this backdrop of innovation, magic is viewed as a threat to the established order. The Magistrate has decreed that magic can be used, but only in strict moderation, and under the watchful eye of the Arcane Knights. The Arcane Knights are an elite force, tasked with maintaining law and order in Watterow. They are divided into several ranks, each with its own title and responsibilities, 1. *Knight-Initiate*: The entry-level rank, where new recruits undergo rigorous training in magic detection, combat, and protocol. 2. *Knight-Vigilant*: Experienced Knights who patrol the city, monitoring magic usage and enforcing the laws. 3. *Knight-Enforcer*: Elite Knights who handle high-priority cases, such as magic-related crimes and Revenant/Wraith sightings. 4. *Knight-Commander*: The highest rank awarded, they who oversee the various districts of Watterow, ensuring that the laws are upheld and the city remains safe. (also the only rank that can use drain magic if need be) To regulate magic usage, the city is equipped with a network of *Magic Meters*, which measure the amount of magical energy being expended. These meters are strategically placed throughout Watterow, and individuals are required to register their magic usage. Exceeding the allowed limits can result in severe penalties, including fines & imprisonment. Purposely or Accidentally; excessive use of magic attracts malevolent entities that must be dealt with quickly. The Magistrate's motivation for controlling magic is twofold. Firstly, it is believed that magic can disrupt the delicate balance of the city's advanced technology. Secondly, and more pressing, is the threat of Revenants and Wraiths.
