The Malcovat
The Malcovat, a school of black magic, is hidden within the Karthax Mountains. Though the Malcovat is largely thought to be a thing of legend, the rumors of its existence are all too true.
• Students at the Malcovat are taught by warlocks and wizards who have extensively studied arcane magic.
• Some classes at the Malcovat are presided over by devils summoned from Hell to provide instruction in the darkest arts of magic.
• Out of every cohort, the student who advances the least in their studies is forfeit to the school’s diabolic masters; their soul is taken as Hell’s due.
• Graduates of the Malcovat can be found throughout Krevborna, though they keep their alma mater a closely guarded secret.
• When encountered in Krevborna, former students of the Malcovat’s infernal curriculum are almost always pursuing unholy routes to power.
The Monastery of Saint Menoch
The Monastery of Saint Menoch is a mountainous spiritual refuge maintained by the warrior monks and nuns of the Requiem order.
• Though the Monastery of Saint Menoch is known for the tutelage in celestial mathematics and the rigorous physical and mental training it provides to acolytes, there is a secret hidden beneath the well-protected edifice.
• Hidden below the monastery is a vault in which the Requiem safeguards evil and accursed magical artifacts.
• As part of their spiritual mission, the monks and nuns of the Requiem search out and obtain baleful magic items, which they then transport to the vaults of Saint Menoch to be secreted away and kept out of the hands of those who would be tempted by the corrupting power they offer.
