Mage Association headquarters

The self-defensive group created by those who seek to learn thaumaturgy, without concern for nationality or genre for the purpose of controlling, concealing, and developing thaumaturgy. At least, just on paper.
As an organization concerned strictly with the concealment and development of thaumaturgy, they are in possession of research bodies for the further development and laws for the prevention of crimes done through thaumaturgy. While their emphasis is on the pursuit of knowledge, the Association also has the military might to protect itself against those organizations that threaten them, be it the Church, other magi conclaves, and otherworldly forces seeking to punish mankind for breaking into areas best left untouched.
