The Arcanium of Zoath

The Idea of the Arcanium of Zoath originated in the brilliant mind of Grand Wizard Jessebeth the Enchanter, 3000 years ago. Since then it has grown from an idea in the mind of one of the finest wizards ever seen to a sprawling organisation, having estates and lands to call its own, and manpower rivaling that of the largest noble house. In practice the Arcanium is an Oligarchic Confederation of wizards lead by the most powerful mages in their organisation. This means the ruling Council of 10 are also some of the most potent and experienced mages in the known world. Recently their main focus has been on recovering and destroying what they perceive to be dangerous and volitile magical items.
