The crown jewel of the country of Oveisca is the Mulrusso Academy, an exclusive and secretive Arcane university that produces some of the most powerful individuals in Zorstrasia, run by a family dynasty of powerful sorcerers. Acceptance and graduation all but guarantees fame, fortune, power, and access to some of the deepest and most secret arcane knowledge available. On one hand, the existence of the university stands as a bulwark against the technological empire of Mathias to the north. On the other, some see it as a method for the magic elite to maintain control.
However, one cannot simply apply to join the academy. In fact, a new cohort is only allowed in once a decade through a test and tournament known as the Magus Trials. 7 Tasks, each more difficult (and often more deadly) than the last. The Trials are done in teams, and each only allows for a limited number of teams to complete them, meaning that teams are bound to face off against each other. The Trials are not simple combat or tests of body and mind: they often force participants to face themselves and realities they are not prepared for.
For one reason or another, you have decided to face the Trails. Maybe you just want the promise of a comfortable life that the academy promises, maybe there's some knowledge you've spent your life searching for, or maybe there's some part of the trails themself you seek. You've gathered in Meventum, the starting point, where you've scrambled to find a team (as the most promising candidates have long since teamed up, and you're not one of those)
