This is a player discussion of the chronicle boon from the Academy of Secrets module. Spoilers beyond this point!

Bruno, a beautiful and handsome tetori, has grappled new job at the Acadamae -- Bruno now a beautiful and handsome gym teacher who help weak babymuscle wizards get stronger!

Bruno will also teach special seminars every semester like, "Grappling with Grappling: What Every Wizard Should Know" and "Things That Want to Grapple You (Besides Bruno)" and "Never Be In A Small Room Alone: Best Practices for Hiring Hirelings"

Bruno curious--who other faculty members at Acadamae?

Liberty's Edge 4/5

I teach chemistry. Specifically the melting point of various...things. I also teach an elective course in psychology that focuses on how creatures respond to being on fire.

I look forward to seeing you on campus professor Breakbone.

As a side note, I have a protege that has some grapple questions and I hear your a good man to ask. He'll send you his prospectus of grappling with a Blade of Binding for your notes.

Eagle Knights lead the way. All the way.

"I join Acadamae as biz-ness opportunity. Much like my mentor, Guaril Karela, I have come into the legal acquisition of many fronts shops due to my years as a Path-finder. The most recent, an old bookstore, in Goka. I even update back of biz-ness card to help advertise. I keep its name, "The Learned Crane". Such beautiful name, but more beautiful profits selling overinflated affordable textbooks to Acadamae students, yes yes."

I think you missed a couple of courses:

Part V: Fun with Tentacles
Part VI: Interior design, the proper placement of dazing ice spears
Part VII: Construction for beginners, on the shaping of walls
Part VIII: Deconstructing Golems, a study in snowballs
Part IX: The friction impacting properties of slippery substances
Part X: Understanding tactical paladin placement, dimension door options for fun and profit.

Grand Lodge 5/5

Well students, today's lecture is about how to make things go Boom!
The most important step is explo... umm... the Acadamae insists that I say safety. While, safety is undoubtedly important it really hampers the creative process. I mean when I won the race here recently, safety was not in my lexicon. In fact I thought that was the little switch on the sides of those musket thingamajigs I've been seeing lately that prevents the boom. And well if I'm teaching a class about making Boom why would we want to include a mechanism for preventing it.

So let's get right down to it. Mix the green goo with the yellow powder and then add a splash of the sparkly powder....

...17 minutes later...

Now shake vigorously and don't drop it!

Heh, can't really do Part VIII, since I don't have the book so...technically no access to the spell :(

Part VIII would need to read:
Deconstructing Golems, a study in dazing Acid Arrows.

Part XI: Counter-spelling with Magic missiles to the face

The other courses are awesome though :)

Sovereign Court 5/5 5/5

Venture-Captain Grikmet Grandovalna, Viscount of Wispil, Unredeemed King of the Gnomes, Consort of the Wyrm-Queen, Proprietor of Grandovalna's Marvelous Machinations, Delver Extraordinairre is also a Dean of the Acadamae. After easily disabling the traps that had baffled other contenders for decades, Grikmet has taken to teaching wizards the true art of trap crafting. The first lesson he teaches is this: a found trap is a disabled trap. When your potential foe is walking around with a +34 Perception to find any trap he passes within 10 feet, you have to be a bit more clever.

5/5 *****

Quote:

For extra credit you can also take the course, Acid Pit, learning why wizards don't fear Golems.

Or for those inclined towards divine magic we have, Lantern Archons and you, a study in the destructive power of light.
