+====== L'Ordre Ésotérique d'Aureon ======
+When a mage joins L'Ordre Ésotérique d'Aureon, he
+must take a vow to only make use of the mystic arts
+within the confines of the law and for the purposes
+of preserving civilization and society.
+[[Aureon]] is the Sovereign of both Law and Lore,
+and the founders of the order believed that magical
+knowledge should always be used in the service of
+the law.
+The Esoteric Order is the oldest wizards circle
+in [[Brelande]], and it helped King [[npc:galifar_i]] spread
+the rule of law across the nation. The arcanists of the
+Order fought along side the [[Église de la Flamme d'Argent]] during the [[inquisition_lycanthropique|Purge Lycanthropique]]
+and led the battle against the twisted
+wizards of [[Le Cercle Fermé]]. But
+over the past two centuries, much
+of the zeal has gone out of the
+Order. Most members are still
+lawful, but more and more are
+lawful evil or lawful neutral.
+These wizards abide by the rules
+and traditions of the Order, but
+many are more interested in the
+acquisition of gold or power than
+the preservation of society, and
+the wizards of the Order demanded
+a fortune in exchange for their services
+during the [[Dernière Guerre]].
+Despite the tarnishing of the Order, the wizards
+and sorcerers still respect the traditions of the past.
+One of the most important traditions is the requirement
+that the wizard know the precise purpose of
+every spell that he casts, to ensure that his actions
+do not spread chaos and discord across the world.
+As a result, the “no questions asked” option is not
+available when dealing with the Esoteric Order, and
+a mage may refuse to perform a spell if it serves an
+ignoble purpose. Because of this reputation, the
+wizards of the Esoteric Order are widely respected in
+Breland, and the King’s Citadel and other forces of
+the crown are more likely to deal with wizards from
+the Esoteric Order than those associated with [[La Guilde des Étoiles et des Ombres]].
+L'Ordre Ésotérique d'Aureon currently has
+members spread across Breland. Most are
+wizards of 1st to 4th level, with a smaller number
+of sorcerers and Artificiers mixed in. The Esoteric
+Order also includes 25 5th-level characters, 12
+th-level characters, 6 7th-level characters, 3
+th-level characters, and 2 9th-level characters.
+At any given time there are usually 30 to 40 members
+of the Order in [[Sharn]]; it is rare for there to
+be more than one 8th- or 9th-level character in the
+city at the same time. [[Humains]] and Nains make
+up the majority of the order, though most races
+are represented; one of the most recent additions
+to the ranks of the Order is a Guerrier de Fer artificer
+named Stone (LN male personality Guerrier de Fer
+artificer 6).
+While wizards and sorcerers associated with the
+Esoteric Order can study all schools of magic, the
+Order focuses on the abjuration, divination, evocation,
+transmutation, and universal schools. Specialist
+wizards who wish to join the Esoteric Order must
+follow one of these schools.
+The Esoteric Order ofA ureon. Members of the
+larger of the two societies, the Esoteric Order of Aureon,
+take a vow to use their talents to preserve and advance
+civilization and to operate within the confines of the law.
+The Esoteric Order helped Galifar I maintain the rule of
+law, and many of its members served Breland during the
+Last War. Although its members aren't prohibited from
+studying any form of magic, the specialties of the order
+are abjuration, divination, and evocation magic. Wizards
+and artificers are almost always welcome in the guild.
+Sorcerers must prove their grasp of arcane theory to
+earn a place, and warlocks are rarely accepted as members.
+The hall of the Esoteric Order of Aureon is in the
+district of Clifftop in Upper Dura.
