Sator Academy

Sator Academy is the most elite magical school in the Coalition. Actually, it is the only magical school, but it is very prestigious and elite. It was founded 99 years ago by Chancellor Blake Cormoran. The decision to have a Coalition supported school of magic arose from a need to standardize magical education and practice. It was decided that Sator would be the only recognized school of magic, making graduation from the school a requirement to be a licensed magic user.

Only ages 14-18 are admitted, as that is the age when elemental powers first manifest. Elemental powers manifesting later than that is very rare. Only children who are members of the coalition (and most recently the witch clans) are admitted and if there is suspicion that you might be in any way connected to the resistance you are imprisoned at best, but probably just killed.

In order to apply you must pass a test proving that you have the ability to manipulate the elements and have an interview with a representative of the school. If you pass the interview you are given a charm making it possible to dream travel.

Dream travel is a fine art and difficult to master, but the school charms make traveling to the school an automatic response. It is very dangerous without a charm, it is possible to get lost and wander aimlessly in the in the dream world for all of eternity, never waking. Eventually, under such circumstances, your body will starve and wither away.

Students arrive in groups of 4-8 children and are then put into quad style dorms which sleep 4. They are divided by gender and year of schooling. For each year there is a coed common room.

Depending on how many courses students sign up for, graduation could take 2-4 years. Also, their natural ability should be considered when determining their course-load.

Since the Coalition does not allow any uncertified magic users to roam freely, dropping out or failing results in prison for life. The teachers work very hard to make sure no one fails, and even those who are weak in their magical abilities are usually able to pass as long as they can control their abilities enough not to hurt others.

After graduation you will be employed by the Coalition to use your skills for the good of the people. See Magical Careers in the Coalition for a list of possible careers for after graduation.

## Grading and Class Attendance in Role Play

If a class your student is enrolled in is being roleplayed, your character is required to participate in the thread or be counted absent. Professors will let staff know their recommendations for honor roll based on class participation.

## School Grounds

The School grounds are immaculate, as though every blade of grass was trimmed individually. There is a greenhouse, a small grove of trees, a pond with a covered bridge, and a large hedge maze which starts off with lower hedges by the pond, but they grow to the height of ten feet by the middle of the maze, and only continue to get taller after that.

There is a statue of the chancellor near the pond, commending him for all his hard work and donations to the school.

## Arrival Rooms

The Arrival rooms at Sator are very Spartan in décor. The walls and floors are white and each room holds 8 beds. The beds are twin sized, with metal frames, and blue linens. They have sheets and pillows, but no blankets. There are also white wardrobes by the beds which are too skinny for a person to fit into, but hold a robe and slippers for anyone who arrives in less than appropriate attire. There are no mirrors or decorations of any kind. Not even the school crest. There is one door in the middle of one wall with no windows.

These rooms use a variation of the Silver Seal Spell, but are designed so that the silver wires create windows above each bed inside the walls within the ceiling, so that dream travelers can get in.

Currently, unknown to school officials, Arrival Room #1’s symbol has been broken and it is not working correctly.  See also: Dream Travel

## Dining Hall

The dining hall has long wooden tables with benches for the students to eat at and a head table for the instructors.

The dining hall is open daily from 6am until 8pm. Breakfast is served from 7am until 9am. Lunch is from 12pm until 2pm and dinner is served between 5pm and 7pm. The rest of the time, there are snacks and ala cart items available.

## Common Rooms and Dorms

There are four common rooms, one for each year, which are coed. They have leather couches, writing desks, and fireplaces.

The common rooms branch off into dorms, each with four beds, desks, and dressers. The dorms are divided by gender. Each dorm has its own bathroom and shower.  *See also: Dorm Assignments*
