The Wizards' Guild is a noble order of magic-wielding protectors—united by their ability to use the Source—who have upheld peace and justice throughout Imperia for over a thousand generations. As keepers of the peace, the Guild undertakes diplomatic missions at the request of the kings of Imperia, and pursues dangerous criminals across national borders. In contrast to the Enemy, the Guild's historic foes who harness the dark side of the Source, the wizards draw their power from the light side of the Source. The Wizard Code serves as the mantra of the wizards' way of life, governing the behavior of individual wizards to the philosophy and training regimen of the Guild as a whole.
