||
| + | The Society was formed by Mallisyra Hawthorn she became restless and somewhat bored with her life in the Stormwind Guard. She had always been a talented scholar, with a passion for collecting and sharing her knowledge, and when the Academy of Arcane Arts and Sciences in Stormwind offered the post of Mage of Mortwake's Tower, in southern Westfall, she jumped at the chance. Now, the once derelict Tower is used as a Library-come-meetingplace-come-school for a group of Mages she has befriended along the way, ranging from Apprentices to masters alike. |

| − | Formed by Mallisyra Hawthorn, herself a talented student of the Academy of Arcane Arts and Sciences, in Stormwind, The Society of Arcanists does not have a long or illustrious history as other magical organisations might do. Instead, it boasts high aspirations and an idealogy unseen in many such other schools. The members of the Society believe that knowledge of the Arcane should be collected and shared, not something to be hidden away in stuff libraries and accessible only to the most studious of scholars. While scholarly aptitude and intelligence are essential to gain membership to the Society and its School, an emphasis is put on practical [[File:Arcane_Rune_Society_Tabard.jpg|thumb|Sigil of the Society of Arcanists]]application and physical learning rather than theoretical study. |

| − | Becoming a member of the Society is quite simple; prospective members will contact Mallisyra herself, or arrive at the Tower to be recruited. The applicant will perform a simple task directed by whoever is conducting the 'interview,' or asked to cast a spell. If the Applicant does not know how to do either of these things, the interviewer will give them instruction; this is a test of aptitude and ability to learn more than anything, not a test of magical strength. |
