School of the Raven

School of the Raven Medallion

The **School of the Raven** is a witcher school founded by members of the School of the Griffin following the precepts taught by the legendary witcher Raven.

## History

The Raven School is a witcher school, founded shortly after **Raven**'s death. Legendary witcher of the School of the Griffin, who advocated the witchers as a force for change for the world, instead of simple professionals who were dedicated to killing monsters.

It could be said that the followers of the vision that **Raven** proposed had a much more radical vision than those of the Griffin School and much closer, perhaps more extreme to the essence of the Order of the Witchers.

Actually, its origin, unlike that of the School of the Rat, was not produced by any internal schism within the School of the Griffin. Since the separation took place gradually. And all this as the legend of Raven spread throughout the world.

Rumors say the witcher known as Aymon may have been its founder.

The place and name of the fortress that hosts their school is unknown.

But there is speculation, according to the information given by Coën to the Griffins. That this would be somewhere in the Fiery Mountains and its leader would be a man named Bertilak and some locals gnomes of Tir Tochair speak of a fortress, called Taise Iontah, which would located in this zone, perhaps, could be the fortress where the School of the Raven is located.

It is also rumoured that they have a great library (although without surpassing that of the griffins) and a great treasure. But these are only rumors and there is nothing confirmed.

## Characteristics

As far as we know. Crows are characterized as an intermediate point between bears and griffins. Focusing as much on magic as on the use of defensive armor. Their armor is unique to each witcher and these are characterized for being beautiful and well made. Just like their swords.

All of this, of course, is as a tribute to Raven, who inspired them.
