The Prospectives

The Prospectives are most easily described as the “conservative” party of the Convention of Five. They believe that the status quo is preferable to most alternatives, and so they’ve established a seat in the Convention in order to work against the changes that the other parties aim to bring about.

What has surprised most, is the fact that their policy seems to extend in all directions. Not only do they oppose any attempts at cooperation between the Light and Dark mages of America, but they also express opposition to either side gaining more power over the other. This has led some to believe, or joke, that the members of The Prospectives, are in some way or another in the know about a prophecy that is close to being fulfilled just by the world being as it currently is. While many consider this a mockery, a fair few have begun pointing out that there’s no other clear reason for the party to exist, and that being in politics just to halt progress, would be a waste of everyone’s time if it didn’t serve a purpose. This mystery has some mages watching carefully, while others find themselves drawn to figuring out what “the big idea” is.

Like most of the parties that make up the Convention, The Prospectives have not published any clues to who their members or even their leader might be.
