Ad Centrum Artium

One of the Player Factions in Andora.

### Description:

Ad Centrum Artium is an institution for all things art. Located in the Arts Quarter of Veritas Prime, it serves as a bastion for all those with a passion for any art to come and nourish their talents. From music to painting to theatre and any other art, there are resources available for artists.

Founded in the year 6900, Ad centrum Artium is one of the oldest and longest lasting institutions in all of Veritas, and much of the development of the Arts Quarter is thanks to their contribution.

Due to their longstanding history and influence in the city of veritas Prime, the government of Veritas allows small amounts of leniency when it comes to truth laws as art is seen as an expression of the artist's identity and thus art that may be seen as objectively untruthful is still allowed.

Ad Centrum Artium’s primary goal is to act as a centerpoint for all artists. They wish for anyone with a passion for any art form to come to their doors so they can nourish and grow their skills and passions.

The institution has a newly founded second, minor function of preserving the arts as well, and will often work with groups or individuals to recover ancient art forms so they can be properly preserved for generations to come.

Ad centrum Artium is divided into four sections with a Magister Magnus who oversees the whole institution. The three main sections are the brnces of Artium, Musica, and Theatrum, each with its own master to handle day to day operations. The fourth section of Ad Centrum Artium is the Marte Convaluisset which was recently founded to fulfill the institution's new secondary purpose.

Additionally, choose up to five creatures you can see at the end of the rest. Those creatures each gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus.

##### (Passive) **Busker’s Routine**

As one who spends a large portion of their time perfecting their craft, you are better able to attract audiences to look your way.
