That's very helpful! Thank you!

Hi!

I’m currently running Curse of the Crimson Throne and one of my players is a Gnome Illusionist who recently arrived in Korvosa (a few months ago).

In the “Guide to Korvosa” it says that gnomes receive frequent invitations to join the Acadamae, “either as students or faculty, regardless of the number of times they decline or their lack of magical ability” and that “all four of the illusion instructors in the school are gnomes”.

So… in some point, I guess the Player should receive and invitation to join the Acadamae. From what I've read, the Acadamae has closed its doors due to the troubles in Korvosa and I think it's going to remain closed for the entire campaign (I haven't read the full book yet), but I'm still curious:

• I understand there is an entry test, then 3 years of servitude, 7 years of training and then the final exam to graduate. But to graduate you need to summon an imp, so you should be at least lvl 7, but there is a lvl 1 feat called “Acadamae graduate”. The only option that I can think of is using an “Planar Binding Lesser” scroll. What do you think? Do you have any better solution?
• Also, it is said that “the rent for students’ tenement flats and studios are included in their already expensive tuition”, what would you consider an expensive tuition?
• Finally, what lvl would you recommend to be able to apply as a professor? And what salary range would you suggest?

Thank you so much <3
