Mage of Sun / Sun Sorceress

Four of twelve chairs in the Archmages Council are reserved for best of the red mages. They are called ''Solaris Magus'', which means ''mages of sun''. Long time ago they left Academy as fledglings, and now they they returning from war as seasoned veterans. Now they should share their experience with the younger generation of mages, and Council will get from them insight about what the practical aspects of magic using are. Although days when sun mages have eight of twelve Council's chairs and was able to completely determine the Academy policy are gone, their votes still have weight. Unfortunately, this is what causes many of aggressive and unwise decisions as many of sun mages are paranoid and suffering from nervous disorders on the basis of things, which they have seen on the war. Of course Council doing everything possible to choose more wise and calm archmages, but sometimes temptation to choose much stronger and less wise ones is too strong.
