Amadeus the Wizard “By my trousers, I must flee!” – Amadeus the Wizard Favourite spell: Amadeus’s Box While the box is no fireball, Amadeus is fond of his long-time companion. The box can be used as a counterweight, a weapon, and sometimes a mild annoyance to adventuring companions. Amadeus the Wizard is a long-time student of the Astral Academy where many years ago he was abducted by a magical artefact, Trine, in order to save the kingdom from an undead hostile takeover. His companions Pontius the Knight and Zoya the Thief may have helped a little bit there. Amadeus has […]
Prince Selius Heatherwood “You’d best keep your guard around me.” – Prince Selius Favourite spell: Piercing Shadow The spell is as intense as the Prince’s dark gaze. Prince Selius has been stumbled upon by his fellow students in the underground quarters of the Astral Academy, and joins their suspicious hunt for the Nine Parchments. The fact that the Prince has been locked up in the dungeons by the wizards for some reason may or not be cause for alarm for his fellow travelers. He certainly does have interesting moods, each more sinister than the previous one. Prince Selius has an […]

“You are all disqualified.” – Professor Butternut Professor Butternut is the teacher in charge of the class of students hunting for the Nine Parchments. He has not been pleased with all his apprentices rushing off into the wilderness after the missing spells, and plans on remedying all absences with punishing new classes. Professor Butternut’s Thoughts on Summer Holidays The students have returned from their dubious little trek to recover the missing spell parchments, which went missing after Anastasia blew up a wall in the library. It was my impression that our young apprentices were not happy to deliver the spells […]
