Criminals and law
enforcement
Life in cities of the Old World can be as dangerous
as the deepest wilderness. Big cities are
teeming with those who, instead of honest work,
have made it their goal to prey on the peaceful
citizens. However, not every criminal chooses
this path on their own. The law in the Old World
is usually so complex and often internally contradictory
that it is easy to become an enemy of
law enforcement entirely by accident.
Unchained (Nemesis)
All wizards feel the lure of addiction, but the
urge of Aqshy is the greatest of them all. Therefore,
it's extremely important to train bright
wizards to shackle their temptations. Unchained
is a term for experienced wizards, even
wizard lords, who become so arrogant to believe
they no longer need their ritual chains and
are capable of dealing with raw power of Chaos.
