University Gossip: As Heard On Campus

[Wynna]

Housekeeper Loru Belkins was fired from the University staff today by the Registrar and told that neither she nor her family were welcome there anymore. Those in the know whisper that it must have been that no good daughter of hers, Margaret, caught stealing from the dorms again.

Word circulates that a recent Pop Test concluded with some rather different results than normally expected, as one member of the winning "team", a muscle-bound swordswinger of mundane background contributed his two copper's worth when he suggested pelting the mischievous pixies with sacks of flower and attempting to capture them, while they were thus distracted, by throwing weighted sheets over them like a fishnet. Though some humorously comment on the fact that the plan fell victim to rather heated difficulties in the actual excecution, the very idea was rather sounder than those some of the campus's actual members had come up with of a more arcane nature.

A Necromancy student was expelled today for cheating on a test. Rumor has it he found another student's test and tried to pass it off as his own. Upon being expelled, the disgraced student then apparently locked himself into a classroom with a zombie and threatened to kill himself. Rumor has it the zombie ripped him to pieces and ate his brain.

Registrar Serapheena has been heard muttering about how students could be foolish enough to believe they could get away with cheating in a school full of diviners. She will write up a policy that states that sharing answers for tests will be considered grounds for expulsion, if not death by brain-eating-zombie.

"The door situation is rapidly getting out of hand! Mistress Serapheena has threatened to burn them all on the kitchen fires if they don't start doing their duty and honoring their masters. Rumor has it that she is seeking the materials necessary to remake them from scratch, too! Why, just this morning, a procurement crew straggled in from a supply run, beaten and bloodied. I hear they were attacked by a forest full of treants and werewolves while collecting firewood! It would be a shame if that handsome Scholar Faewind grew fangs and started howling at the moon, I think."

It's been rumored about that a young man who had been admitted into the college months ago for suspicion of insanity was seen frequenting around a house in the north-eastern edges of the main city. His business there remains unknown.
Despite previous accusations, one cannot argue this calculating man with fiery-red hair being among the higher achievers in Arcadeva's class.

...or perhaps there is more to him that he's truly leading on...

Have you heard? Serapheena is giving the doors one more chance. I've already renewed my control over mine with her this morning. If it misbehaves again, then it's Fireball for them. All students with campus housing are to report to Serapheena at their first opportunity.

"If you have student housing, then you'll need to either see Serapheena in her office or leave her a note (PM Wynna) to confirm your residency. All unclaimed dormitories will soon be opened up for new students."
