The Conclave of High Sorcery

[center]The Conclave of High Sorcery[/center]
The Conclave of the Wizards of High Sorcery is convened on set
dates and times as dictated by the moons. The Conclave meets
regularly once each fortnight on the first day of High Sanction
for the Ruling Order. The Night of the Eye is a special time
when all of the orders gather together. Conclaves can also be
called by the Highmage, that is, the Head of the Conclave,
during times of grave crises that affect all orders. The
Conclave does not meet when the Test is given, as this is a
normal function of the tower and is handled on a routine basis.
The Conclave of Wizards consists of Twenty-one Conclave
Representatives of three factions, with seven representatives
from each. Each of the Orders of High Sorcery is equally
represented at the Conclave, and each is led by a single
individual selected by each order. The chosen wizard is the
Master of that order. The selection process is left to each
order and varies from order to order.
The Masters of High Sorcery
The Black Robe representative is usually the most powerful
wizard of that order. This has, from time to time, resulted in
some rather fabulous contests of wizardry as two sorcerers vie
to establish who is fit to rule their order. Such contests are
invariably held beyond the boundaries of the towers.
In the case of the White Robes, elections are held to determine
the master of their order. The Red Robes draw lots from among
the seven members of the Conclave.
The law of the Conclave is largely determined in everyday
matters by the Highmage of the Conclave, and their law is final.
If, however, a decision is made that is against the will of the
Conclave, then a mandate may be called for, in which case a
consensus is taken of the general wizardry and a new Master of
the Conclave is then determined.
