The Lady's College was the first open school for mages in Silverymoon.[4][5] It was considered by many to be the heart of the Conclave of Silverymoon.[4]
Services[]
The education system of Lady's College was unique, as unlike the other schools at the time, it didn’t utilize the traditional apprentice-master dynamic, in which a master took on several apprentices, and slowly taught them magic in exchange for servitude. The Lady's College took on aspiring mages as students, not as servants.[6] Setting itself apart from its contemporaries further, it also taught bardic lore and history.[1]
The radically different teaching philosophy of Lady's College made the school a polarizing institution,[speculation] though even its detractors agreed that its graduates were not only talented wizards, but also well rounded scholars.[1]
History[]
The school was established in the Year of the Firewall, 821 DR, by Elué Dualen and Lynx.[2]
By the Year of the Unstrung Harp, 1371 DR, the student system of Lady’s College became the standard in magical education throughout Silverymoon,[4] replacing the traditional master-apprentice dynamic as the default education system.[2][6]
