Description

The Abjuration school campus is situated southwest of the Ionguale. Rugged mesas and steep hills rise from the desert, and a great chasm holds the excavated ruins of an ancient settlement.

Pillardrop

Part natural chasm, part archaeological excavation, and part new construction, Pillardrop is a series of buildings excavated out of cliffs on the campus. Ruins and upgraded halls together are now used for research, classwork, and housing. Precarious bridges link one neighborhood of Pillardrop to another, often directly passing the enormous stone faces of old statues. Every class has a story of some careless student making a misstep on one of these bridges or in some particularly crumbling section of the ruins, sometimes with disastrous consequences—and sometimes finding deliverance when a spirit statue appears from nowhere to catch the hapless student before they suffer serious harm.

Effigy Row

The heart of the campus surrounds a soaring bridge that crosses the chasm of Pillardrop. The bridge and surrounding pathways are lined with monuments depicting historic figures, including past professors and prominent mage-students, as well as war heroes and heads of state from ages past.

Vilgefortz Hall

Vilgefortz Hall is a grand, multitiered gallery built into a large outcrop at the end of Effigy Row. Here, mages gather for large lectures. At the center of the hall towers a magnificent statue of Darvik Vilgefortz, the founder of the Academy of magic.

Serenity Quadrants

Study areas under the hall’s tiered balconies hold an impressive collection of history books.

Wise Vilgefortz

The towering statue of Darvik Vilgefortz holds an open book in one hand and a staff in the other and is visible from each of the hall’s floors.

Demonstration Stage

This stage rises 5 feet to be flush with the base of Vilgefortz’s statue. Here, professors perform demonstrations of their college’s more physically demanding subjects, such as conjuring shield of large scale or protecting spirit.
