A flash game from [http://www.nobstudio.com/ Nob Studio], ''[[Book of Mages the Dark Times]]'' is the sequel to ''[[
A major subplot in the game revolves around the Book of Mages: a book that serves as a pecking order and ranks the strongest hundred mages in the world.

* [[Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right]]: {{spoiler|The White Robes elect their White Mage by a democratic vote instead of through challenges, because they don't want to see another Great Mage like Battlebeard.}}
