    Now this sounds like a possibility, but I would toss in a chance for a Wild
    Surge every time he/she casts a spell. This would represent the resistance
    of the Mebhaighl to a non-Blooded Mage. But definatly Regents would notice
    the destruction of the land that they cause, and the nature of Defiling
    magic would prevent them from casting Realm Spells(it would disrupt the
    Source). But they might be able to give their spells a boost by "draining"
    a Source, definatly causing a Wild Surge. I also think they would slowly
    transform into an Awnsheghlien. The first time he/she casts a spell they
    should get a Tainted(BS:1) Azrai BL, with the Bloodform Ability. After that
    everytime he/she casts a spell they would transform(and risk the Wild
    Surge), but would not gain any more BS. Of course you might allow the
    Blooded Defiler to commit Bloodtheft, but I'm not to sure of that. I don't
    think I would allow it. This could actually be a very interesting
    NPC...Hmmm, my wife DMs Dark Sun maybe I'll take a look at her books. ;)

    Now Defilers and Preservers are a possibility! If the Magic comes from
    Birthright's Land, then a mage from my world should be able to cast spell=
    s
    there sufficiently (In my World, there's something called Earthblood, whi=
    ch is
    the source of the Essence . . .). But a Defiler would be able to do that.

    In DS, a Defiler will turn into a Dragon, eventually. A preserver, howev=
    er,
    will turn into an Archon (an angelic creature). It stands to reason that=
    a
    Defiler will turn into an awnshelghhlien, since he defiles the land, turn=
    ing it
    into desert country. But what happens to a preserver?

    As for a mage that stumbles into BR from my world, he should be able to c=
    ast
    spells sufficiently since the power he receives flows around, and from th=
    e
    land. Now an Archmage from my world would be able to manipulate the Magi=
    c of
    Birthright almost like a Blooded Regent Wizard. To bad they don't exist.
