Yesterday I passed a barbershop and saw ads on their wall outside of men with beards and short hair. It is a revival or saving electricity ?

    I’m a fucking wizard - the beard is mandatory.

      Do the other wizards just give you the staff, or do you have to go on a quest or something?

        Becoming a wizard isn’t so trivial as just being declared one - many wizards apprenticed themselves to gain knowledge and improve their chances but that elevation is a personal journey.

        You will know you’re a wizard when you can look at fellows in your skill and know that none of them would challenge your adoption of the title. I wish you the best of luck. It’s a title within reach of everyone in their lifetime.

        The staff and robes are optional but who would turn down a badass purple robe.

          It’s really the stick I’m interested in. So you can just go get your own staff? Nobody awards you the staff, or stops you from getting a staff?

            Nah, you can just make yourself a staff - there aren’t any restrictions, registries or waiting periods.

              Exactly. The moguls try to control how I use it in the organization
