Rarity
Under The Treaty of Magai, any and all literature pertaining to or instructing on the arts of Magic or the Magical Sciences are closely regulated and segregated to the availability of the The University of Arcaena and only the University. A fine of eight-hundred silver pieces or an incarceration term of six years is the standard punishment for the buying or selling of any literature that is more than a lectured commentary on the Mages Arts. For the very reason that Mages at the University do not divulge the particulars of their arts. Magic in the hands of criminals, or the corrupt would be used to devastating effect. Nearly as much as that of an untrained Mage.
