ELBION COLLEGE (during the events of Pinnacle) Deal's a deal. The Department of Acquisitions had a top-tier expedition about to set out to the Seret Mountains, and for Zael, the only way he could get onto it was with the help of three College Students: Gierliadel, Herrim, and Yuna. The first...

(Art Credit) Nowhere left to run. Time to stand, or die. "LIGHT IT UP!" exclaimed Captain Grinko, the last man of the mercenary company backing the College. "DO IT NOW!" Zael didn't have access to his magic—neither he nor any of the College mages did anymore—but he had a firestarter kit...

Finally! Some time to study. One would have thought that in a place like Elbion College time to study would be plentiful. Mayhap for the actual students this was true, yet not so much for a visiting Dreadlord Initiate as it turned out. Kristen, along with several others, had been conscripted...

"... when ∆ activates ¶ then "¶" will activate spells ✓ π ^ € and ¢." Matthias dipped his quill in the inkwell and continued writing in his spellbook. Matthias wasn't chomping at the bit to leave the college, while he'd pumped each individual teacher for information and explored all available...

"We have only just managed to get out infrastructure back up and running, and now you do this? We will be bankrupt in weeks!" His sister whispered sourly at him. "You know this is only a tithe of our funds. The people of this city need our help. We have to pick up everyone together, or we all...

Here's a great fucking idea. Train the best warrior-mages, drawn from all across Vel Anir's holdings, in the most intensive, strict, and brutal regimen known to Arethil, hone them into razor sharp weapons of war...and then send them all the way across Liadain to eat cake and make nice with the...

Aoife angrily tapped out her pipe, red embers catching the breeze and spraying onto a patch of newly-clipped grass. How was she supposed to pass the time if she couldn’t smoke? A group of students across the courtyard were looking up from their books, casting angry glares. In her mind she was...

(20150626 Landscape by psdeluxe) "HOLD!" Zael yelled out. "STAY TOGETHER!" It was too late for one poor girl of the caravan. One of the students from Elbion College. She'd panicked and ran too far from the wagons. The swarm of Kraits got her. They didn't kill her instantly, not like they had...

"Class dismissed," Istra said. "Enjoy your lunch." Her students stood up from their desks in the small classroom in the College. A small classroom for a small class: only eight of them, down from eleven. Alteration was one of the less popular subjects at the College, for it was far less direct...

Books filled every nook and cranny as far as the eye could see. Holding on to the railing, Nina gazed five levels down, to the torch-lit mysteries of the First Level, and two levels above, to the immense clear-glass star-shaped mosaic set alight by sunset. The mosaic was technically the ground...

"The excavation is for the most part going according to schedule, though the lower levels are taking more time. The need for proper equipment and laborers are a bottleneck.” It was only natural Nicodemus thought to himself, given the dangerous and unstable nature of the work that had been done...

Ten days ago, a teenage boy named Artor Wiscard was found murdered in his family’s estate. The body’s face was mutilated beyond recognition and was only identified via the rings the boy wore and a distinctive birthmark on his left arm. News of the gruesome murder spread throughout the city...

It was around mid-day when Nayden opens the door looking around the room, the gargoyles that were in charge of assuring his safety followed behind him. There were tables, some plants, a nice rug on the floor. The typical college infirmary. There were a few students being looked at by doctors and...

It was that time of year again. End of year, theses, alchemical creations, and design projects were all up for review. For some students at the College of Elbion this week simply a barrage of high-stress examinations, but for others it was the difference between becoming a first level Maester or...

Yrael liked libraries. When he was not training or on a mission, he could often be found reading. His interests were singularly focused, and he usually read tomes on magic theory, military tactics, and combat styles. Every action needed purpose, after all, and what greater purpose was there than...

Within the College of Elbion's main building, Adius sat in the lobby on a bench, reading a book as his leather satchel sat on the floor in front of him. He glanced at the door, looking to see if anyone resembling a Nordenfiir man had entered. Seeing nobody he resumed his reading. The Queen of...

Since the attack on Elbion by Maho 'Jerik' Sparhawk, the Professors had gathered their resources and put all they had into rebuilding the college. James Lanvarok, a former dreadlord apprentice, had arrived in Elbion only a few weeks after the attack, and was both surprised and shocked to see...

"Here I and sorrows sit; Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it." - Shakespeare, King John, iii, 1 ______________________________________________ Elbion was such a world away now. Jerik remembered when he and the other Sorcerers and Professors at the College had to defend it's walls and...

Hey duderinos! So Sparhawk has kind of been building up to a big thread like this for a while, and there's been a lot of buildup with other PC's like Gerra and the Eternum stuff. The idea is that Sparhawk is going to come to Elbion, fully powered, and is going to burn and kill as much as he...
