1. I'll accept that, unless dirkinz sees a case where it could go wrong and I don't. (Another visual cue would be the magic circle around them)
2. Possibly, but since the council can only really counter mages with magic weapons or other mages, it'd be unlikely as magic weapons weren't exactly easy to get a hold of.
