Kith Lor Educian First of the Trisolumm

Throughout most civilizations there are houses of education. Most will be a kind of 'catch-all', filling minds with basic knowledge that will get them through life and help them pass down assistance to the next generation learning what they once did. Some may go on to excel in specific fields they really get passionate about, but only through their own means and willpower. The Trisolumm focus entirely on people excelling in specific fields. Across this face of Colossus there are three of these establishments. Darshal Educian in Ravenholme, Gloryian Educian in Etoria and Kith Lor Educian, the first of the Trisolumm, in Vae. These are the places that only the gifted, children of prodigy, or occasionally the incredibly wealthy, get a place where they can hone their crafts. The criteria, tests and exams, to gain a place in one of these establishments has cost some their lives. The end goal is the epitome of knowledge and its rewards. This, to the would be scholar of an Educian, is akin to the draconic horde of gold to the glory seeking adventurer. When Kith Lor Educian came about it happened naturally and almost by accident. During the early days of the conflict in Vae the people needed somewhere to research their enemies, to educate themselves in designs and displays of life, combat, the arcane, the divine, the list would never end. Knowledge is the one true power to those of Vae and it outweighs all of the gold the world could offer. The threat on Vae was too deadly to risk amateurs and charlatans. Those who would twist words to get inside and squander the knowledge inside on tricks or personal gain. With this in mind, the most honed minds of the time came up with a strict and deadly series of tests for one to pass. Success in these trials meant that you were recognised, right there and then, as someone to train with respect. In the northern mountains of Vae, the Kith Lor Educian was built and getting there was the first challenge. One had to endure the route. At the core it is very obviously a house of learning, a school to those attending with classes, masters in subjects passing on knowledge, but it is more than just that. The knowledge here is from a time the world was young and dates back to when the Creator Titans took steps on the very lands of Colossus. Arcane power, pure magic, the ability to manipulate the elements seems to have originated in Vae. This all poured from Titan Strand into the world starting with Vae. With the latent aftereffects of the blood of the Titan on their doorstep, it makes sense that the Kith Lor Educian is unmatched in gathering and holding the knowledge of all things magic. Each Trisolumm took hold of a grouping of knowledge. For martial knowledge one would travel to Ravenholme in hope of attending the Darshal Educian, for those seeking religious skills and teachings it was Gloryian Educian in Etoria. But magic, arcane knowledge, there is no other place one can learn all there is and reach for more than here at Kith Lor Educian.
  Shibo Hai sits as head of Kith Lor Educian with the goliath Bro Kan and giant, Shoulders Scrolls at their side. They lead the academy and each master and student must pass the final test of sitting in front of them and simply answering questions. If a candidate has made it this far then the final test is more traditional, however they do not know this and few have been known to allow nerves to get the best of them and fail entry.
  Key Faces of Kith Lor Shibo Hai is a very old eccentric, boisterous and colourful elf. They seem to have a never-ending bubbling energy within them that they constantly need to release. They say that Shibo Hai has played the Titan Strand in a game of chess, and won, but those that meet them are easily drawn to question this rumour. Nevertheless, Shibo Hai is an ancient elf even compared to others of their kin. They sat with the Titan Strand and aided in honing part of the arcane that flows in the world. Bro Kan ticks the mentality and professional atomsphere boxes one might attribute to a typical educator. However, physically, the goliath stands a good couple of feet above the elves that roam Kith Lor. Their free time is spent in the company of arcane parchments packed with notes on experiments. Bro Kan pushes the boundaries of the arcane and try to create something new. Students have opportunities to pass on experiments to Bro Kan. Any that they select are not seen for months after as they undergo one on one lessons with Bro Kan. They are one of the people responsible for some of the world's most powerful protective magical items. They were brought into the Kith Lor Educian from birth and it's said that Shibo Hai spoke that the child's future entwined with the future of the Educian. Shoulders Scrolls is the youngest of the three by many years. They have a gifted mind and are known as a prodigy of knowledge retention. Shoulders is a Majikku Kyojin, an Arcane Giant, with a topknot hairstyle and braided beard. When they first tried for entry they were given the path of martial magic, acts of Bladesinging and similar abilities, to prove themselves. Shoulders Scrolls passed with flying colours but Shibo Kan and Bro Kan both had seen the thought process that the giant displayed in each test. Within a year of gaining entry they pair had made had given the third seat to Shoulders Scrolls, a seat that had remained empty for two decades. Shoulders Scrolls is a lorekeeper and has read every single piece of writings in the school. The knowledge has been ingrained in their head since and they seek to continue writing copies down to ensure the knowledge will never be lost. Beneath them are the other teachers, extremely talented individuals that take on the majority of the educating. It is easy to become lost in the awe of magical knowledge at the school and miss the talented strategists, weapons masters, athletic and acrobatic tutors, philosophers, mathematicians and so much more that they have teaching here.
