Magic exists. Magic is mysterious. Magic is attractive. Magic is powerful. Magic is all of this, and more.
But above everything, however, magic can be studied.
And that is where the Breakfast University of Magic comes into play. It is one of hundreds of secret schools scattered throughout the globe, and also among the foremost, perhaps even the best. It's Founder and current Headmaster, at least, is unrivaled among mages, and among the archmages, first among peers, and he has been for seven hundred years.
The University is an alliance of different schools of magic, all dedicated to fostering the potential of the magic users who walk through its hallowed halls. Although, rather than a conventional school, it is more akin to a huge research laboratory with occasional lectures. Fights are also more common and accepted than what would be permissible at mundane universities - it has to be, otherwise combat oriented magic users would wreck the place going mad from boredom!
Anyone can be accepted here, but not everyone; the standards for acceptance into the University mean that at the very least, some measure of control has been attained. It does not accept complete novices.
OOC
Magic Ranks - Mages are classified according to power, control, and their singularity - that is, the percentage of people that can replicate magic similar to theirs.
CS
Field Trips - Only Novices and above can go on school field trips. Some locations may require you to be at least Journeyman rank, and sometimes with a Masters permission or presence. Field Trips are usually undertaken for the purpose of gathering materials, study, or experience. Locations include the likes of the realm of the Fae, Atlantis, and Tartarus. Requests for a field trip must be submitted through the Department of Academic Affairs with at the signatures of at least three participants - you are not allowed to go on a field trip alone!
Welp, that's everything until the RP proper starts, then I'll add more. In short, it's a kinda sandbox-y magic Roleplay, with an emphasis on adventure and concepts.
Interested?
