Hey, I've been reading up on the brettonian fluff and came across a passage that states the females who show magical ability are taken to the lady of the lake to be trained. The males are taken some where else and never seen again... Anyone know/have any ideas what happens to them?

Dont know tbh. However it would not surprise me if they are "disposed of". If you read between the lines of Brettonian fluff it would appear that man wielding magic would not go over well with the,

Be grateful for the few female miniatures in the game. But few would find a Merlin-style wizard unfitting for a Bretonnian army (even if very close to Imperial wizards).

I've read about this before- Some people suggest they are taken to Athel Loren & do jobs for the Elves (like at court or something).

Otherwise, its one of those things that are intentionally vague for you to make your best guess.

Where do you think all the Green Knights come from?

Isn't he a ghost or something? The Spirit of Bretonnia made manifest.

Perhaps they're castrated, shaven and handed long wigs...

One such male was taken by his families servant to the Skaeling tribes only to become a dark sorcerer who returned to his motherland with bloodthirst and ravaged the lands alongside a great warlord.

With such things happening, it's best left to the Lady's discretion as to what happens to the fey males.

No one knows what (or who) exactly the Green Knight is.

No one knows what the Lady does with the Feyborne male children.

Coincidence?

Concubines, the lot of them.

Or perhaps souls fed to the emperor... wait wrong game.

Sex change.

Then back to the Lady.

I would imagine they are either taken to the elves or the empire

The Empire wants not the trash from the west. Let the elves of the forest take them, after all, Bretonnian men are built like elves to begin with!
