Organisations: Royal Hermetic Society:

This is a sort of "union" for the licenced Hermetic Mages in Scandinavia. The society is the only organisation that speaks for the powerful but few Hermetic Mages. The society hires out the services of their members to the Government as well as private organisations.

The Society has created a Hermetic Academy in Uppsala, and has permission from the government to perform tests of magical aptitude in all schools, and likely subjects are then moved to the Hermetic Academy for tuition in the Art.

As part of the charter, the Society maintains a number of their members as "conscripts" for the military units as either Combat mages, research or intelligence projects. The mages being drafted like this, use a special uniform to show their status, and is treated with much respect from other military units.

But even private organisations, such as Biotech corporations or Research and Medical institutes can hire a Staff Mage. Those mages hired out like this to Government or Private use signs a document of Secrets & Trust, leaving tissue samples in a DNA bank, for an incentive to contain the secrets they encounter in their service.
