The Academy

The Academy The sprawling campus grounds of the Academy bustle with activity. Over a dozen impressive marble buildings stand in rows, connected by paved, well-maintained pathways. Rich green lawns stretch between the pathways, and scholars can be seen reading, writing, and hotly debating all manner of subjects. The Academy is spread throughout more than a dozen buildings. This is one of the greatest centers of learning not just in Thylea but most likely in all the world.   The Great Library contains scrolls detailing knowledge on the flora and fauna of Thylea as well as information on topics such as metallurgy, alchemy, medicine, cartography, and almost any other imaginable subject.   The Hall of Heroes is devoted to recording the heroic exploits of Thylea’s heroes throughout the ages. Marble statues and busts of all of Thylea’s heroes can be found here as well as scrolls of their histories and songs.   The Schools of the Arcane consist of eight buildings devoted to the study of the eight schools of magic, each headed by an arcane master.   The Great Orrery is a building that contains a replica of the many planes of existence, represented as celestial spheres fashioned from bronze clockwork.   The Hall of Debate provides a forum where any philosophy can be discussed without repercussions, even if it veers into the theological. Some of the greatest minds in Thylea can be found debating philosophy here:   Machaon (Half-orc mage ) Chalcodon (Elf noble ) Kerodotos (Gnome priest ) Atreus (Tiefling captain )
