Magic Association

The Mage's Guild (魔道協会) was an organization that appears in the Phase Shift and Bloodedge Experience novels. In XBlaze world it is known as the Magic Guild (魔導協会). It was situated on the island of Magister's City: Ishana, the magical capital.

History
The Mage's Guild has been around for centuries, teaching many different mages and making them excel in the magical arts. It is the forefront of the magic and many magical arts and techniques are not only taught but also made.

The leaders of the Mage's Guild are known as the Ten Sages, and while the ten seats have never been filled all at once, the Sages lead the Guild in the direction they see fit.

The Guild is also responsible for the creation of the Nox Nyctores Causality Weapons and at least three of the ten were held by members of the Ten Sages. They were made as a counteract towards the destruction wrought by the Black Beast when the Sages finally acknowledged the threat it posed towards the end of BlazBlue: Phase Shift 3. During this time, they began to heavily involve themselves with the Void Information Administration Bureau due to the bond they shared with Ars Magus being born from sorcery.

While the Guild teaches sorcery, they don't teach magic because of its complexity and rarity of people who can use this.

After the events of the First War of Ars Magus, the Guild became extremely weak and eventually fused with the Void Information Administration Bureau to become the Orbis Librarius Norma. Along with this fusion, some of the Ten Sages went on to become some of the first members of the Duodecim, with their descendants forming the houses. The most notable of these is the Kisaragi family, who are 'descendants' (although unlikely, given the nature of the family) of Seven.
