Campaign Name: Strixhaven
DM: @vague notch
System: 5e 2014
Date/Time: Saturdays <t:1733580000:t>
Available Spots: 2/5
Preferred Player Experience: Beginner - Intermediate [knowledge of core mechanics and the ability to create your own character] All I ask is that you’re not shy of heavy RP, or at least are willing to engage with the world and your fellow characters.
Preferred Player Age: 18+
Description:
Strixhaven University was founded centuries prior by five ancient dragons who mastered the magic of a newborn world before the age of man grew too big for their own good.

They, upon seeing the destruction of uneducated casters and the loss of history brought about by fiery wars realized that only through disciplined study would magic be safe in the hands of men. They founded Strixhaven to facilitate that study, and each dragon built a college based upon a primal form of magic mastered by them alone.

Each equipped with its own campus, faculty, and students, Strixhaven's five colleges continue to cover a vast array of academic and magical specialties -- drawing promising young mages from all over the world.

It's a magical school system, with players playing out four years of study filled with courses, field trips, clubs, adventures, and the potential to form bonds with your fellow students. For better or worse, this particular batch of students shows promise to shake Strixhaven’s very foundations right to the core. No one will have seen you coming, and for that you are grand.

Strixhaven students are said to have always gone on to do something Great, which is why so few seem to make it to graduation. Admission alone is a cutthroat affair, and though thousands may apply, only a few impress the faculty enough to be spoken for.

You’ve been accepted into Strixhaven, the most prestigious of all magical schools by your own mettle. Whether you’re a commoner who scraped their way to the top, or a promised pupil heralded with their entry — all walks of life are now welcomed into the school…if you can impress the professors during your entrance exam.

Notes:
• This will be my first time running Strixhaven, so I’ll be learning with everyone else. I’m traditionally a 5e homebrew DM and have been for years now, so this is a departure from my usual campaign style. I plan to cater the story towards the group itself as the world is built around you.
• Give me your wildest characters and let me shape the world to them. Give me your ideas, and let’s polish them together. I want this to be a character you follow through the years of your study and enjoy playing.
• Lvl 1 - 4 during your first year. [Milestone]
• Required Discord Voice [Potentially video] and we’ll be using Foundry/Forge for the game itself.

Heavy emphasis on roleplay, story-focused and long-term. I plan to include a mixture of cozy classroom mechanics and occasional world-saving. The party is very much the archetype of “wrong place, right time” in this story. You’re academics. You weren’t chosen to defeat evil by some divine right, you aren’t special, but this is your responsibility now. So you figure it out or die trying.
