I am making a concept of mageguild and would like some comments regarding it. Mageguild consists of several dozen mages whos' main job is to prevent other wizards form destroying the world. (spamming half-tarrasques by means of simulacrum, etc ...) So they have two fraternities: Seekers and Killers. First are masters of divination and own huge information nets, intertwined with thieves guilds in several towns, while others are best-of-the-best munchkins.
Now, there are also those, who just like to play their own game as creating their own demiplane and creating their own machinations there.
What I would like is a thought or two on how would power be distributed in such a guild? Surely, there would be different factions (I was thinking rogue wizards also, but I find that a bit unbelievelable due to such wizards death ratio) and am wondering what kind. Maybe:
- "Let's conquer the world" faction
- "Let's not conquer the world, there wil be retaliation from druids/clerics/gods" faction
- "We do not care" faction
- "Tougher restrictions must be placed on wizards and their destructive spells" faction
... in a sort of a high council, where all wizards have their say and can wote. (only few dozen highest-ranking of course, not ALL wizards in the land)
Comments much appreciated
