Arcana Omen
Academy of Past and Future Chronicles
Arcana Omen is surrounded by a vast and zealous city, serving many different faiths and cultures. As such, the academy itself is often mistaken as having a religious direction or siding with one god over another. This is however false, and the city has merely adopted the foreseeing knowledge of Arcana Omen's wizards as a way to seek council. As advisors and seekers of truth, Arcana Omen lies unbound to any outside organisation and hide many terrible secrets of the future and past inside of their large chambers.Structure
Truthseekers and Soothsayers
Grand Seer
Grand Seers of the academy are those who are willing to receive greatest risks for their information. Often bargaining with otherworldly entities, or even building relations to other planes to exchange their information from, Grand Seers words are heeded throughout the entire academy and weighed with heavy hearts. These seers are often masters of deduction and are required to learn a large portion of the academies near-endless libraries and prophecies in order to understand every slight hint or context from their interplanar dealings. What kind of a seer would contact one of the hellish princes after all, only to miss the required knowledge to completely decipher what the hellish prince replied?Seers
Purveyors of less risky and dubious knowledge, Seers often seek ways to contact messengers of the gods, different spynetworks and organisations for their information or even druid groves in order to investigate any suspicious omens they have recived from their visions. Seers form the bulk of Arcana Omen and often times investigate, archive and handle information within the academy walls and are sometimes referred to as "Archivists" if their specialisation is turned towards upkeep and recording of information rather than acquiring new knowledge.Tidingsbearer, Soothsayer [mockery]
Most commonly seen wizards of Arcana Omen visit countries far away from their academy in order to inform those who are suspected to be at the epicenter of world-changing events. These tidingsbearers might appear to kings who are about to be overthrown, as well as to inform entire villages of an upcoming volcanic eruption. Entire neighborhoods follow the direction these soothsayers choose to take, hoping for them not to take a path that might be near to their loved ones.
