	Elevation to Transcendent Master generally only occurs when there is a vacancy in the position of Magister of a Chapterhouse, though it does periodically occur without such a vacancy. To even be considered for such an elevation, the mage must have Hermetic Aptitude III and familiarity with ''all'' Apprentice spells, fifteen Mentalist spells, ten Director spells and five Master spells, one of which must be Control Person. A Transcendent Master is generally expected to be sedentary and take on the leadership responsibilities of the Chapterhouse to which he is assigned, though no small number become advisers to important nobles or find a means by which to elevate themselves to nobility.

Examinations for elevation to Transcendent Master are extremely difficult and complex, often taking months to complete, as the Master is tasked with manipulating the regional economy or political alliances. It is rumored that wars have been started due to the completion of a Transcendent Master's final examination.

The Director must undergo rigorous examination by the available Masters of the Chapterhouse he belongs to or wishes to become a Master at. The examination typically requires using magic to influence a variety of important people in a city or region to achieve a pre-determined result (for example, manipulating a mayoral election to cause an unpopular candidate to win or framing a popular local hero for a crime).
