VEYRITH MAGIC ACADEMY

Name: Veyrith Magic Academy
Type: Magical Education Boarding School
Age of entry: 11 years
Duration: 7 years
Location: Hidden from the human world by ancient protective spells.

History

Veyrith is one of the oldest and most prestigious magic academies in the world. It was founded centuries ago by a group of wizards who sought to create a place where young people with magical abilities could learn to control their powers regardless of their family background.

Over the years, Veyrith became a renowned institution within the wizarding community. Studying there is considered a privilege, especially for the oldest wizarding families.

The castle

The academy operates within a vast castle surrounded by forests, mountains, and an enchanted lake. The building changes slightly depending on the magic used within: some doors appear only for certain students, and some corridors can change their layout.

It has classrooms, a library, potion laboratories, training rooms, dormitories, a dining hall, an infirmary, courtyards, and a huge hall intended for magical duels.

Subjects

Students have compulsory subjects and some optional ones.

Main subjects:

• Enchantments
• Transformations
• Potions
• Magic Defense
• History of Magic
• Magical Creatures
• Ancient Runes
• Control and Channeling of Magic
• Magical Herbology

Advanced subjects:

• Magic Duel
• Elemental Magic
• Protection Spells
• Alchemy
• Healing Magic
• Illusions
• Haunted Artifacts

Duels

Duels are an important part of education in Veyrith. Students learn to defend themselves and control their powers without using unnecessarily dangerous magic.

There are internal tournaments throughout the year and the most outstanding students can represent Veyrith in competitions against other academies.

Houses and groups

Veyrith does not divide its students into houses based on personality. Students remain in groups determined primarily by their age and academic level.

However, each student develops a magical specialty, depending on their natural abilities.

Some excel in enchantments, others in elemental magic, transformations, potions, defense, or even rare magical abilities.

Student life

Students live on campus during the school year. They share dormitories with students in their year group and have set schedules for classes, meals, training, and activities.

At night, students have some freedom within the permitted areas of the castle, although there are restricted areas that are off-limits.

Veyrith also organizes magical festivals, tournaments, excursions, celebrations, and formal events throughout the year.

Reputation

Veyrith is known for its high standards. Professors expect students not only to learn how to cast spells, but also to understand the consequences of using magic.

The academy accepts students from old magical families, new families, and people who are just discovering their magical ability.

Therefore, although there is a certain elitism among some students from important families, Veyrith tries to maintain the idea that magical talent does not depend on one's surname.

RULES OF VEYRITH

1. Magic is prohibited outside of designated areas. Students may not cast spells in dormitories, hallways at night, or inside the dining hall.

2. Duels may only take place in designated rooms. Impromptu magical battles are strictly prohibited.

3. Entry to restricted areas is prohibited. Some parts of the castle are closed even to upper-level students.

4. No one should enter the Forest of Veyrith unsupervised. The forest is protected by ancient magic and contains creatures that can be dangerous.

5. After curfew, students must remain in their dormitories. Nighttime halls don't always behave the same way as during the day.

6. It is forbidden to use magic to alter another student's memories. This type of magic requires special authorization from a teacher.

7. Magical artifacts found within the castle must be handed over to a professor. Some objects have unknown enchantments.

8. Summoning creatures within the castle is forbidden. Even a seemingly harmless creature can react unpredictably to Veyrith's magic.

9. Students must immediately report any magical anomalies. Doors appearing out of nowhere, objects moving on their own, unfamiliar symbols, or sudden changes in the hallways may indicate a problem.

10. Attempting to access Veyrith's sealed magic is forbidden. Some areas and objects were sealed by the founders, and no one fully knows the reasons.

The changing corridors

Veyrith is built upon a vast concentration of magic. Some corridors can change direction, disappear, or lead to different places depending on the time of day and the magic present.

The old stairs

Some staircases have their own enchantments and can change position. The oldest ones can even lead to floors that don't normally appear on the academy maps.

The Forest of Veyrith

The forest surrounding the academy is full of magical creatures. Some are harmless, but others are territorial and extremely dangerous if anyone enters their territory.

The lake

The lake behind the castle appears tranquil, but it is inhabited by magical creatures. There is a deep area that has never been fully explored by the students.

The abandoned classrooms

There are rooms that haven't been used for decades. Some contain magical objects, ancient experiments, and spells that were never completely erased.

The Forbidden Wing

It is one of the most restricted areas of Veyrith. Books, artifacts, and objects related to magic considered too dangerous for students are stored there.

The residual magic

Spells used for centuries have left traces of magic within the castle. Strange phenomena can occur in certain places: voices, lights, moving objects, or illusions created by ancient spells.

The sealed areas

There are doors and rooms that don't appear on any official map. They are protected by ancient magic and can only be opened under certain conditions.

No student knows exactly how many sealed zones exist.

One of the most important rules of Veyrith is simple: the castle is ancient, alive with magic, and doesn't always respond as it should.
