The Office of Arcane Regulation and Security was established in the year of 305 A.C at the behest of the then newly-appointed Undercrown of Regalia, Albaer Ravenstad. The Office, or O.A.R.S for short, stands as the main authority on magic within the walls of the Crown City and is entrusted with overseeing both its practice and the safety of Regalian citizens from it. An arm of the Arcane Ministry, they are expected to carry out their duties efficiently and without question, to keep the law and dole out punishment on rogue mages and aberrant creatures.
Ranks
◈◈◈ Magister
The de facto head of the Office of Arcane Regulation and Security, the Magister takes his orders directly from the Arcane Ministers. Entrusted with the leadership of the organization, he is responsible for recruitment, bringing in and screening fresh recruits - maintenance of the aberration registry, and lastly, overseeing field operations as the ministers are largely hands off in their management of the office. Though Magisters are not required to be mages themselves, the first Magister of the O.A.R.S is known to be a skilled Celestial Mage, leading to the common nickname of 'Magus' being labeled onto the Magister in command by the Sentinels.
◈◈ Sentinels
Sentinels within the Arcane Ministry constitute the vast majority of O.A.R.S, being sworn into service of the charter by the Magister and sometimes even the Arcane Minister. While they answer to the Magister, they possess some autonomy in their actions so long as they adhere strictly to the regulations put in place by their superiors. What is expected of them is a keen mind and a handy sword arm, should the need for the latter arise. Typically, Sentinels are trained in groups, instructed to utilize such items as Holy Water and Lapis Dust to debilitate their targets. In certain cases, White Mages approved by the State will be permitted this rank.
◈ Neophytes
The entry rank into the Office, Neophytes have yet to take their oaths and are generally held under a trial period in which they shadow a Sentinel and familiarize themselves with the duties that they will carry out and the regulations they will follow. The period of time in which one will stay a Neophyte depends on the Neophyte's ability to carry out instructions successfully, alongside the talent and creativity they bring to the table.
The Headquarters of the O.A.R.S is the 'Sluisse Hall' - a relatively compact fortification built into the border-wall between the Regalian Slums and the rest of the City. This unique positioning has allowed the O.A.R.S Headquarters to also act as the main entrance and exit to the Regalian Slums, thus suiting the Charter's Regulation of Aberration-Rank Citizens, namely the Vilitatei that find solace in the Slums.
The reason to this is speculated to be anything between magical interference to an abundance of bird seed being laid across the Office rooftops. Regardless, the ambiance created by such strange occurrences leaves the Arcane Office to be a landmark of mystery and allure.
