Cirakon

The Order of Cirakon is an independent institution of arcane scholars located on the Windless Isles, a group of islands of the northeastern coast of Itanea. To the south of the islands lies Horbihr, and Borim lies to the west of them. The islands are located in an alpine and stormy region, but a powerful magic barrier shields them from the harsh climate, and makes them both warm and fertile. Because of this barrier, the wind never exceeds a light breeze, and the islands are thus known as the Windless Isles.

Cirakon is ruled by Grandmaster Helmyn Brevixa, who was elected among the Archmasters in 2634 AH. Grandmasters are elected by the Council of Archmasters, a group of the senior members of the order, and generally serve for life. When joining the order, new prospects will start as acolytes. When finishing their education, usually after somewhere between 8 and 15 years, they obtain the title of Master in a specific school of magic. Senior skilled Masters can eventually be elected as Archmasters when a position becomes available.

While the order usually relies on magic rather than martial power, they do have a military guard that protect the order, and the islands, called the Cirakonan Knights.
