The Ankh Kemet Academy

Probably the only school in Elyria that specialises in death and the thereafter.
Death is a respected state of being, and undeath is often seen as unnatural by almost everyone on Elyria. The students here often become clerics or practitioners of funerary rites and rituals, while others become great warriors who keep the dead... dead.

Classes:
