Maesters

The Maesters are an organization of wizards, alchemists, researchers, and theorists that form the central government of the Librean Union as well as being the educators at its universities. They are led by the oldest and most accomplished among their group, known as the Archmaester.

Study and training to become a Maester takes a sizable portion of one's cognitive life-span. Many have traveled across the Thalassian Sea to dedicate their lives to the pursuit and passing of knowledge, and many have ultimately given up, finding it to be a far more taxing process than they had expected.
