Welcome to the Dascentian Academy of Arcane Sigils. As members of this virtual community dedicated to the study and practice of new Dascentian magic, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, respect, and responsibility. Our work in creating magic sigils, amulets, wards, and seals is guided by principles that ensure our magic serves the highest good of all. The following set of ethics and rules outlines our collective commitment to positive and ethical magical practice.

  • Non-Maleficence: No member shall engage in magic intended to cause harm, fear, or negativity. All magic must be crafted and performed with the intention of avoiding any form of harm to others, including physical, emotional, and spiritual harm.
  • Integrity and Honesty: Members must practice honesty in their magical work, including transparent sharing of intentions and methods. Plagiarism and deceit are not tolerated; credit must be given where it is due.
  • Respect and Compassion: Members must treat each other with respect and kindness, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment. Differences in magical practice and belief should be respected and embraced.
  • Self-Empowerment and Personal Responsibility: Members are encouraged to recognize and cultivate their own power, understanding that self-empowerment fosters generosity and a willingness to share knowledge and power. Each member is responsible for the ethical use of their own magic and must be accountable for their actions.
  • Positive Intent and Energy: All magical work should be infused with positive energy and intent, seeking to uplift and empower. Negative emotions such as envy, anger, or malice should be transformed into positive forces before engaging in magical practice.
