About Art & Academe
In Mythic Europe, the Hermetic Order is not alone in its search for knowledge. Mundane scholars study the world, applying science and philosophy in turns, at early universities and educational institutions. Doctors continue to explore the secrets of the human body. Artists develop their craft, creating works from the great cathedrals to the most humble paintings.
In Art & Academe, learn more about the mundane skills a magus might acquire or encounter in Mythic Europe. Apply mechanics for mundane medicine, laboratory research, and debate to your sagas. Visit the apothecary, attend Oxford, or imbue an artist's latest work with magic.
