Rowan Academy, A place of magic and mischief, of companions and spells. Here, young potentials have the chance to enroll when they are sixteen. They come here to learn to control various magics, take care of their Charge, and study ancient arts as well as make wonderful friends. At the end of their terms here, they have the opportunity to become Agents, working to keep the balance between the magic and the mortal world. While At Rowan Academy, students are given a Charge: A mythical being that chooses the student. They are then given a name and the student has full responsibility of taking care of their magical companion. Some of them Talk, others do not. If well taken care of, A Charge will come to their owner's aid in many a situation. Now, most students do not know it, but a great evil is befalling the land. The Agents are doing their best to keep everything on the down low, both in the magic and nonmagic worlds. An evil Demon by the Name of Astaroth plans to take over the world, making it to his own liking. But, he has yet to show his shadowy self here at Rowan; for now our students can go about their daily lives. Ahem, Let me show you the map and accommodations of Rowan.

The Manse: For the next six years, students will call The Manse Home. Built in the style of a European chateau, the Manse extends far below the ground. No one student has yet discovered its entire secrets. Boys' and Girls' dormitories are in the residential wings, and rooms are configured to suit their occupants. Please note that room configurations cannot be changed once set. So, make the best of what you get!

The Bacon Library: Most incoming students claim the Bacon Library as their own. Located on the third floor of the Manse, the library offers a cozy fireplace and books on every subject. From Egyptian architecture to contemporary art, this Library has it all.

Old Tom and Maggie: A pair of weathered old grey buildings. Here is where many of the classes take place. Old Tom is the name of the Clock Tower on the very top of the one building. Within their walls you'll learn to harness mystic energies, study a dozen languages, and master everything from Aristotle to Zou Yan. Expectations are high, homework is plentiful, and exams are near impossible. So, get thee to a library!

The Smithy: The fighting and defense building. The Course is located beneath the Smithy and provides students with state of the art combat simulations. The purpose of The Course is to sharpen both skills and strategy. Course advisors will provide necessary instructions and access codes.

The Sanctuary and Warming Lodge: The sanctuary boasts a wide array of natural habitats lying just beyond gated tunnels is the Smithy, Stables, and Orchard. Established as a refuge for mystic creatures on the brink of extinction, the Sanctuary offers a unique opportunity to glimpse a rare Orc, a well-fed Selkie, or an Ancient Ki-Rin. Students' charges are housed in the Warming Lodge, next to the Sanctuary Lagoon. Students must make their way here hearly and often, otherwise YaYa the Ki-Rin Guardian of the place will think the student is neglecting the marvelous and magnificent creature entrusted to them. Don't worry: whether the Charge eats mice, melons, or metals, the serving imps will cater to their every appetite!

The Field House: All work and no play makes for dull students, no? Students nourish their mind, body, and spirit here at the Field House. Whether you crave a game of multi-terrain soccer, Celtic hurling games, or simply a soak in the Hot Springs, students will feel restored in no time.
