You have recently graduated from the College of Senra Ordis, a low quality university for mages, with a few of your friends. However, to say that any of you actually know what you are doing with magic is stretching the truth. In fact, it was suspected by the college council that one of you had gotten most of their required credits in magic lore by repeatedly taking the Mystic Creatures I and II courses. You still all managed to graduate, and since none of you had enough skill to go off on your own, you decided to strike out together. Eventually, after wandering in a mountainous region for awhile, you came across these ruins:
Apparently, based on a sign you found at the entrance to the 'tower', this is the Silver Monument of the Buried Retreat. However, you don't really care about this. You only care that you finally have a place to call your own, and practice magic however you please. Though you wish you remembered the path to get here.

Background: Vaclav is the third son of a prestigious line of magicians. Unfortunately money was tight and he was sent to a less than prestigious university to learn the family craft. For generations the Sykora family have been demon hunters, using their wits and magical powers to find demons and send them back to where they came from. However Vaclav is not interested in hunting demons, and would prefer to spend his time working on his studies. Unbeknownst to him or his family, when Vaclav was just a baby a demon hid in his body to avoid the Sykora demon hunters. The demon, whose name is Osiru, has been lying dormant in Vaclav's body all of these years.

Background: One of the Headmasters had a knack for experimenting. With humans. and monsters. To keep his creations under surveillance he enrolled them in the college. She stayed there, occasionally taking the name of her food and having her old guise disappear. Having learned much about the illithid in "Mystic Creatures II" she knows that she does not belong to their race. The pitiful excuses for human beings that surrounded her during her stay at the college made her happy she doesn't belong to their kind either. The only path left would be to leave the college and transcend them both. This group of misfits would do well.

AboutWhenever you are creating a scroll, you will choose the number of times
this generator will be run, of which a 1d(whatever number you chose) will be rolled, determining the effect of the scroll you created. The effects can range from "A pile of gold appears in front of you permanently," to " It begins hailing and then you lose all elemental powers (and weaknesses), if any repeatedly," to "Your right foot shrinks and then you grow a draconic, arrow-headed tail, but only for a few minutes," to "A tornado strikes permanently." Due to what the generator can occasionally crop up, I'm going to be using selective discretion when getting the effects. A 1d2 is also rolled to see whether it is on target or on yourself. You can rewrite the spell upon up to five other scrolls for two rounds after you create the spell, with a chance of failure, before the mystic energies tied to that spell are gone.
Mercenaries are your guards, and are loyal to you as long as you keep them paid. They cost varying values, depending upon their various abilities. For each addition to a single stat, the price goes up by 25 gold, with a starting price of 50 gold.

Builders can be hired at a starting price of 100 gold each for a one week contract to build up and repair various areas. I'll tell you how long it will take to repair/build something if you ask.
I am going to be trying to make the images of locations in blender, but do not expect exceptionally high quality. When a 'local area' is left, then you go to the world map so I don't have to model everything.
This game is based off of one I was wanting to run before
located here. Hopefully this one can get off of the ground...
