Civitas is a sage field available to illusionists and mages, providing knowledge of how civilisation is governed, the distribution of power and the social contracts that define the citizens relationship to regional monarchies and republics. This gives awareness of how best to exploit the regulations of the realm in order to pursue careers in trade, manufacturing, building and political interests.

The field includes the following sage studies:

  • Current Affairs: a study of present political interactions, enabling the character to identify and explain the sequence of day-to-day events ongoing in the world.
  • Guilds: enables the character to understand the organisation and relationships involved in mastering business, regulations, cartels and professional associations. Means of production is included in the knowledge.
  • Construction: the physical process of building structures, integrating surveying, excavation, masonry, carpentry, financial considerations, contracting and ongoing productivity of labour.
  • Mercantilism: knowledge of the habits and opportunities proposed by trading goods both locally and abroad, as a means of knowing what to trade and to where it should be traded. Provides skill at obtaining the best buy and sell prices.
