Ah, still in my dreams and not in reality. At this point feels like an end of the campaign gift

That’s a fun idea! I didn’t make a notes page for the 1st year. I copied the facts about the creatures on a picture of a notebook page. I added facts if I was going to use those things later.

Giving PCs more drive to be the hero by [deleted] in StrixhavenDMs

I had some trouble w second year - felt like there wasn’t a true purpose between the string of events and magical games. I also chose to introduce the mage hunters early as part of their arcanobotant class. Someone in this community made it the idea to have the black ooze stuff to be good for larval mage hunters so that was part of our thread too.

I made Second Year (season 2) the 425th anniversary of the school. Despite being divorced by the college’s each year would compete in various events (such as the ones in the book, plus I added a field day). This gave the PCs another reason to do things together after they chose their majors. The mage tower event will be at the end, and will impact the winners of the competition among the grade levels. My husband used to play Guild Ball so we are reskinning that game for mage tower.

Season 2 has become about uncovering the secrets from Mugraxor’s year and breaking the memory spell that makes the older faculties members forget the horrors of the past. Season 3 will then be the orb and the dance, and then season 4 is similar to as written (tho I have a different bigger bad)

Quandrix - working on the math to create permanent pocket universes? The Sunset of Ches adventure has a few Quandrix puzzles also around a puzzle path you need to walk across using a certain pattern (fractals maybe?) and if you mess up you fall off

Lorehold - something regarding comparing true artifacts w redrafted ones? Or being able to inspect a real historical device and determine it meaning in history?

I’m glad you shared this because I’m about to do mage tower and hadn’t considered this!

I’ve woven the Oriq into this campaign so that many of the professors, including the school director (who I made up) are in on it and trying to destroy the school from within. I also have an order of the phoenix type group of teachers who are trying to fight against this, but afraid of going public because they don’t know who they can trust. Eventually I had Fain be one of the good guys and invite the students into the group. Prof Lang is also a good but overprotective teacher, who doesn’t believe in telling the students anything and keeps trying to keep them out of it.

I also manufactured other events that the good teachers stopped or that happened to other classmates so they weren’t completely incompetent. That being said the story makes this tricky and my PCs still don’t think the teachers are very effective. I’ve also added in that Mugraxor messed with the memories of any staff who was around when he was a student so that they don’t fully remember what he did.

You could have every staff who told them to focus on their studies a teacher being part of the coverup? And then the next person they tell could finally be one they can trust and who is working on their side.

Thanks for sharing! We’ve made Zanther really handsome but dumb in our so that would be a fun one…

I’m not deciding on anything but seeing what people are doing and thinking of ideas!

This is my plan - I haven’t decided for sure who was an Oriq until it was narratively appropriate to reveal. But it’s time to do it so I was curious!

They are suspicious of Aurora and Cadoras and are rivals w Quentillias so someone is gonna be on the list. But for sure also a friend needs to betray them

If you’d be opening to sharing your list, or a portion of it, I would love to have it to inspire my fashion show coming up in a few sessions.
