Briel's School of the Arcane

Briel's School of the Arcane was a school of wizardry in Baldur's Gate on the Sword Coast.

It was founded by the Archmage Briel, who'd written a letter to the city stating his plan to start a school of wizardry there; this was preserved in the city's archive. However, this was done at the guidance of the lich Aumvor the Undying, as part of his plan to revive the spirit of Netherese spellcasting, after previous efforts in the Brotherhood of the Black Hand in Ascalhorn and Ulcaster's School of Conjuration in Beregost failed spectacularly. The result was Briel's School of the Arcane, but it too ultimately failed some time before 1374 DR.
