Bristle Crios sent out letters to its friends, members, leaders, the staff of its school, and those that lived on the grounds. The letter addressed many people's concerns regarding the recent anti-magic campaign.
On Monday, January 21, 2013, Rakeesh Sah Tarna, Baron of Old Temple, requested a proposition be addressed at the Government Advisory Council. His proposition would cause citizens to be screened to identify magic users. Anyone identified as such would be forced to register under the passed law. In 2009, a similar proposition was made, Proposition 37, which would have mandated the registration of all magic-users, officially called the Mage and Enchanter Registration Act (M.E.R.A.) Then Governor, Matt Simon, released his own response against Proposition 37. It was turned down before becoming law.
Bristle Crios encourages everyone to refrain from considering this a valid threat until this current anti-magic campaign goes further. We discourage our staff, members, and guests from making any hostile actions against anyone on either side of this matter, on and off the Bristle Crios grounds. We ask that you never reveal a magically known Bristle Crios member to anyone outside of Bristle Crios. Bristle Crios will continue to be a safe haven for all, just as it has always been. Our compound, located in the forest north of the marketplace, is outside of the city walls. Although Bristle Crios currently complies with city laws as much as possible for many reasons, it will not give the identities of magic users or any other specific group of persons in its care to the authorities under any circumstances. Grounds security will be increased during the proposal's consideration, with extra security around Mage House and the Mage Hall of the Bristle Crios Academy.
OOC: If you have any thoughts or concerns, please contact Miranda Branson or Fiona ONeill via PM. We always welcome support and new storylines from all. Please feel free to add to this thread regarding your characters' thoughts, responses, and related storylines.
