The Mages' Collective is a group of magi, comprising of both Apostates and Circle mages, that operates outside the restrictions and oversight of the Chantry and the Templars.

Background Edit

It is described as a a shadow-guild of sorts, wherein members can submit requests relating to either the practice of magic or something more mundane; and have them seen to without judgement. This collective manages to work in relative secrecy, their members discreet and their clients anonymous. As of yet, this collective has seen no sanction from the templars, and there has been no sign that its members are practicing magic of which the Maker would not approve. Given the inherent danger in defying the Chantry (and thus risking being labeled an apostate or, worse, maleficarum), it is no surprise that dealing with the Mages' Collective can be risky (if profitable) business.

Involvement Edit

In Dragon Age: Origins, there are several quests available through liasons located in Denerim, Lake Calenhad, and Redcliffe Village. In the Leliana's Song DLC, the protagonist may also interact with the Collective by slaying some of their members and removing their wealth.
