The Academy of Philosophies

This is a school of higher learning available to wizards and some warlocks. It is a large building made of marble and white granite near the Silver Palace.

Those willing to brighten their horizons and ponder the questions of the mind are welcome to enter and join. The first and second is composed of a library that is open access to those studious and searching for knowledge. More protected and obscure information can be found in rooms that are accessible to members of the school. This Academy offers dorms for those studying, and some are even available for those needing some extra coin.

The public area offers tables and chairs, warm hearths, many lamps for those of poorer eyes, as well as lounge chairs. Those with member privileges have free, unaccompanied access to the dining hall, courtyards, observatory, and dorms. Though, even some rooms are inaccessible to them...

Being part of the Academy grants a character the following:

• Library Access (+2 to All Knowledges)

• Alchemy Lab Access (+2 Craft Alchemy)

• Spell Bonuses (See Wizard Class Thread)

• Wizards that are members of the Academy of Philosophies are able to scribe spells into their spellbook from other Academy Wizard PCs for no material cost. Wizards may still charge a transfer fee for doing this. However, a wizard copying a spell must still pass the DC to understand the spell in order to be able to transfer it. Requesting spells from other characters must be done In Character, and both players must notify the DM Team of this transaction.

• Scribing Spells from the Academy's resources has no material cost for scribing a spell into their spellbook. However, they do charge a service fee for requesting the book and lending it, as well as taking the time with a professor to understand the spell - 50gp/level of spell, with +2 to their Spellcraft Check by having access in learning it.
  
  

Sorcery of any kind is unwelcome, and sorcerers are prohibited from entering the Academy.
