Atur Academy
A small arcane institute is located in Atur, Karrnath's City of Night. Though the city is best known for the Crimson Monastery (its great temple to the Blood of Vol), the Atur Academy has trained wizards, sorcerers, and other arcane spellcasters for centuries - it has just done so rather quietly. Even in Karrnath, whose armies were bolstered by animated skeletons and zombies during the Last War, the teachings of the Atur Academy are not always met with acceptance and understanding. The masters of the academy are necromancers and warlocks, and the lessons they pass on to their students concern the darkest lore - the magic of the dead, of negative energy, and of demonic binding.
In contrast to Morgrave University or the Passage Institute of the Arcane Arts, the Atur Academy is quite exclusive. The heads of the academy look for students they believe have the potential for true greatness, and indeed a few of the greatest spellcasters in recent history were graduates of Atur. The cost of attending the academy is a barrier to many, though a candidate who can’t afford to pay but secures the patronage of a respected spellcaster can hope for a scholarship to defray the cost of tuition.
