Re: How Do You Imprison TFT Wizards?
Perhaps the more interesting solution is to be found in the society, not game mechanics?
In most pre- and early-modern societies, there was no long-term prison. There was execution, exile, maiming, marking (tattoo, brand, disfigurement), shunning or fines.
A person with sufficient power might be imprisoned: but it was more akin to house arrest even if housed as a "guest" of the king.
The exception were extremely high-ranking political prisoners or hostages.
But think about it: they were retained by someone MORE powerful than they. So perhaps, in a magical society where Wizards are effectively immune from punishment, the only control on them is a more powerful Wizard.
The question isn't how to jail a Sorcerer. The question is what does a society of Sorcerer-kings look like?
Cheers!
