			In the most extreme cases, such as those involving killing, an illition was punishable by death. In lesser cases, imprisonment was the sentence. The only case that was punishable ''before'' a crime was committed was regarding soulpiercers; they were often killed whenever their abilities could be substantiated.

			===Investigation and Justice===
			Investigating violations of the Ygwer Code was tricky, so a special multi-discipline sect called the [[Joint Illition Directorate]] was formed to investigate crimes and present evidence to a tribunal court which consisted of five mages, one from each of the largest five schools: ([[Cleric's Guild]], [[Draol]], [[Eari]], [[I'dunal]], [[Runesworn]]). The Directorate was headed by an [[Archwitness]] from the [[I'dunal]]. Typically, the sect would investigate reports or look at cases thought to involve illicit acts. Much of this involved the use of [[perciperation]]; any personnel chosen to be a member of this sect was required to have some training in perciperation, so they could view evidence found by the sect's Archwitness. If at least three people corroborated that a crime had been committed, the culprit would be apprehended and brought before the tribunal. Official testimony would be presented, and any judges on the tribunal would have opportunity to verify the claims (through perciperation). Should the accused be found guilty.

	The '''Ygwer Code''' was a universal code of conduct among the [[magic]] academies that forbade certain acts. The idea was put forth and heavily pushed by the [[Cleric's Guild]], who had been using the code since the inception of the [[Ygwer School of Clerics]]. The Guild also had a more vested interest in maintaining a moral standard with regards to magic. They had a tremendous amount of power, being involved in some of the most influential organizations. So they wished to impose some of their own ethical standards, which were codified into the Ygwer School rules, into the other schools. This code would see several updates as, naturally, some unscrupulous people would find ways to circumvent the code. One such example would be the rise of [[vormongers]].

After the code became widely accepted as the ethical standard among all the magic schools, it was actually the [[Eari]] who would push the code the most, using it to advance the "good" image they wanted to portray.
