The Magic of Shokiyu, Day 32

◦Are certain spells (as opposed to magic generally) illegal? Why — because of the effect of the spell, or because of the ingredients or procedures needed to cast it, or what? If so, how would a criminal magician be detected? Apprehended? Punished? Is catching and punishing illegal magicians the responsibility of the magician’s guild, or do the ordinary courts have to handle it?

Spells that cause curses, disease, or manipulate time or the weather (unless for very specific reasons) are usually illegal--and usually the effects would be felt. Usually, the Seer punishes rogue mages, but if the spell was involved in a crime (i.e. using a lightning spell to break into a house), the courts punish the mage
