Diplomatic Leverage in Post-Mage Rebellion Negotiations: Game Theory Applied to Circle Autonomy Discussions

Abstract

Following the widespread mage rebellion of 9:40 Dragon, traditional power structures governing mage-templar relations have undergone unprecedented transformation. This paper applies modified Orlesian Game Theory to analyze negotiation strategies employed during the Conclave and subsequent talks. We identify key inflection points where diplomatic leverage shifted, highlighting the role of information asymmetry and credible commitment problems. Our model demonstrates how the fragmentation of the Templar Order created bargaining opportunities for moderate Circle factions while diminishing the position of hardline Chantry representatives. Recommendations for stable institutional arrangements that balance magical safety with mage autonomy are provided.
