* PowerGlows: All Magicians can manifest a glowing aura with a color unique to the Magician. According to Din, the aura can manifest anywhere on a Magician's body at will, although hands are most common for the purposes of actually using magic. Pascal demonstrates by [[RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer making his nose glow]].

** Magicians wield tremendous magical power but can be commanded against their will by the simplest imperative sentence. Even worse, their magic only works if they've been commanded to use it. And even if the person commanding them dies, their heirs will inherit any active commands.

And if two commands that they have are completely mutually contradictory, it will almost certainly kill them.

* ExactWords: A Magician can do this to commands. For example, "bringing someone's head" to another person clearly implies killing them, but if the command doesn't specify whether or not the head needs to still be ''attached''...

It follows the [[KidnappedByTheCall kidnapping]] of the seemingly-unimportant [[FarmBoy farmboy]], Conan Renaud, by the [[OurGeniesAreDifferent devilish Magician]], Din, who intends to overthrow the neighboring monarchy. Unfortunately for Conan and to his surprise, he possesses the ability the Magician needs to succeed in his rebellion--the power to command Magicians in binding [[{{Geas}} geasa]].

''[[http://www.galebound.com Galebound]]'' is an ongoing webcomic started in May 2016, based on a NaNoWriMo project entitled ''Noblesse Oblige''.

Conan Renaud is a [[FarmBoy stablehand]] and that's all he ever wanted to be... Although he would also like to be [[OnlyInItForTheMoney filthy rich]] and married to his [[ChildhoodFriendRomance sweetheart]], Lucie. His dreams of wealth look to be within reach when Din, a Magician, comes to him with a lot of gold, a [[CheshireCatGrin sinister smile]], and a [[DevilsJobOffer deal]]: Guide me to Cymaria, the city of kings.

[[KidnappedByTheCall Not entirely by choice]], Conan takes the deal and finds an [[AffablyEvil over-friendly assassin]], a scathing [[NatureSpirit daemon]], and a [[EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses young queen]] standing between him and his happy marriage. Worse yet, the Magician brings with him an ancient curse that binds them both: the wind-driven magic known as the [[{{Geas}} Obligation]].
