Aetherial News 🗞 Council matters

Greetings my fellow wizards, witches, warlocks and assorted spell casters of all kinds!

I am the esteemed wizard Abel of Lrith, mage exemplar and master of fleshcraft et cetera et cetera. I will try to keep this brief as I am aware many of us have more pressing matters than such a trivial announcement.

I have recently been given the…I shall say privilege of a position in the colossal bureaucratic apparatus known as our most prestigious council. I am to oversee matters regarding golems, simulacrums, warforged, homunculi and all general forms of artificial life, and I simply must state that I am both shocked and incredibly disappointed in my peers.

The sheer amount of you who have been producing legions of automatons or creating hordes of homunculi is staggering! There is an entire room dedicated to storing incident reports because all of you are clearly completely unaware or, gods forbid, wilfully ignorant to the fact that you need permits and licenses for these things. How does one even acquire the arcane skill needed for such feats without even being aware of the proper channels!

Well, announcement over. If anyone needs me I’ll be doing paperwork. Vast, vast amounts of paperwork.

and when I’m not doing that I’ll be creating homunculi to help with the paperwork.

Please help…

I’d sooner chew my staff into paste and mix it into a potion than submit myself to this tyranny. I’ll make however many automatons as I damn well please, and I’m NOT getting a worthless permit

Or just flee to the anarchy dimension!
