Arcane spellcasters resident in the City of Waterdeep are strongly encouraged to join the Watchful Order of Magists and Protectors¸ founded more than a century ago to defend the City with its magic in time of need¸ police the use of magic within the city¸ and encourage arcane spellcasters to use magic wisely and for the common good rather than selfish pursuits.
Members hire themselves out daily to protect the city and its citizens from dangers. From serving as a fireguard in a warehouse full of valuables¸ to service as a spellguard for a noble¸ wealthy merchant¸ or visiting dignitary¸ a member can earn up to 15 dragons (gp) per night of service.
It is service as a spellguard which caused this book to be created. Over the years the Order has created or acquired a collection of nonlethal spells useful for detaining criminals inside the city without causing damage to property and innocent bystanders. Order members who volunteer as spellguards are given this book on loan to copy¸ so they can add the unique spells herein to their spellbooks. It is otherwise kept in the Tower of the Order.
We appreciate your desire to join the Watchful Order of Magists and Protectors¸ and hope your membership is long¸ happy¸ and fruitful.
