University of Scalvoris (Viden Academy) A satellite of the prestigious Viden Academy, this collaborative effort has truly been successful on Scalvoris and many great inventions and discoveries are made on a regular basis!

So, one of the things that has changed in the new site is that the new PSF is visible to everyone. This provides us an opportunity and so, this morning I've created some subforums in there - for completed / approved threads. You'll note that there are now separate...

Please Note: For a full island link map please see this thread in the OOC forum. Thank you!
When most people hear Scalvoris, they think of the island as a whole. Technically, it is actually the name of the first and largest town, though this has come to be called Scalvoris Proper, or Scalvoris...
The search for Enri von Smooglenuff had taken Doran much longer than he had expected. Almost an arc before, to that very trial, Qylios had given him a task. She wished to understand how her nephew had been involved in the events that had led up to the Forging. At first, he had...
As he wandered into the Glass Temple , Woe reflected on that idiosyncracy of Scalvoris spirituality. Why was it always glass, always lanterns, always with candles? There were repeated themes in the lore of Scalvoris that tempted his more curious nature to probe them. Was it...
Woe thought it best that he meet up with Doran later in the trial, after his gift for the Devout had changed hands. If their objective was to investigate the missing ghosts of the Le Fleur sisters, then it'd best be done after sundown, or near enough. Woe didn't know if...
It was a beautiful day in Scarovis Town. The sun shone brightly through Clara’s art studio windows and illuminated the frame of Clara, standing right in front of an empty canvas, paintbrush in her right hand and palette in her left....
Excuse me, but what? Dead birds falling out of the sky? Elisabeth had been on the beach meditating when the pair of Haven's guards found her. Silk had just returned from Scalvoris Town with Balder, where both had business to attend to, and immediately found Haven's young...
Arc 720, 91st of Ashan
In stark contrast to the previous night's revelry , the sun had risen on a much more sober morning. That was not simply because the alcohol had begun to work its way out of their systems - a filling breakfast and plenty of water had been Yeva's recommendation to combat the...
There’s a time in everyone’s lives, where things just take a different turn. For Clara, this was the time. Even though she had been the one to even suggest it to her parents, it was still not real to her. She was going to leave her...
Seven Immortals had perished in the events surrounding the Ascension, and a new one had risen. Syroa that Doran had called his patroness once upon a time was gone now. Even though he had realized that he should never have followed her – while her domains were not bad, her...
It was a trial like most others in Haven. The settlers were busy, going about their business, chatting, and being the friendly sort they always were. As Elisabeth made her way through the settlement, she smiled and waved to those that greeted her...
Leona had a hunch that her lost cub could be found on the main island of Scalvoris. She could feel it through the connection to Daia. When she asked if Vega and Doran would attend to her trip on the main island, she managed to convince them . So it was that Vega and Doran made...
I didn't realize he knew Llyr... Woe murmured to himself on remembering the night when he and a few others had attended a function at the halls of Lady Raine. He hadn't realized that Doran knew Llyr, but since he'd looked back on that night, and reflected on the meaning of...
This could be bad for us. Balthazar said as he held out the newspaper to Robin so his friend could read the latest from Anton Callipo's publishing. The two of them stood beside a table in the room Balthazar had rented. There was a vigilante active in Scalvoris Town where Balthazar...
10th of Cylus
Blodwen woke up, for the first time in days having recovered the sensation back in her toes. She'd been taking to pacing the room the last few days, pacing the halls, familiarizing herself with the surroundings. They were impressively expansive, and allowed for enough exercise that...
Nestled in the hills above Scalvoris Town and overlooking the Hollow Sea, sits the home of Darius Baer.
The property rests on a rocky shelf with a fenced garden that appears simplistic and functional rather than decorative, with a small area dedicated to growing herbs...
He wasn't sure where to go next, having more or less failed to find the sort of worker he was looking for in Gunvorton. He knew one thing though, the Scalvoris Town library would have books on the topic. He didn't really want to teach himself how to mine, but the available workforce...
From the outside, Luna's Orphanage was not all that impressive. Balthazar had been to larger, grander, and far more intricately decorated places even when he was just passing through Quacia during the war. Then again, it wasn't doing too bad for itself either though. It had a large...
This thread is intended to be a follow-up of Past, Present, Future . The two threads are exactly one arc apart.
Arc 722, 18th of Cylus
Darius awoke to the sound of a cockerel.
It wasn't as familiar a sound as it once had been, for there were not many such birds near his home within the walled...

There was a chill in the night air. Moonlight struggled to pierce through the thin layer of grey clouds lingering in the sky above, sending down a thin layer of drizzle that mixed with the unusually fierce wind to make an...
There was a part of the son of Ziell that would likely always yearn for the ice and the snow of the far north, and hat needed cold in order to truly thrive. Another part of him appreciated the gentle warmth that was becoming more and more common towards the middle of Ashan, and...
Kisaik was good. Very good, and as time went on, the spar continued to evolve and change, offering challenges to both. From a spectator's standpoint, Elisabeth could understand why their spar was drawing so much attention. The training between the...
On the fifth of Ashan, Robin finally arrived in Scalvoris Town with a small band of people he insisted could be trusted. He had gathered them from various taverns in Almund before finally setting out on the trip to meet Balthazar in Scalvoris Town. The first draft of the team...

Location: Kura's house, near the woods.
Kura pulled back on her bow, taking a deep breath before letting the arrow loose and sinking it into a tree. Cally was leaning against the back wall of Kura's cabin, her expression thoughtful as she watched Kura practice with...
Dark clouds were gathering in the skies above Scalvoris Town. Balthazar could feel the warning on the wind. A storm was coming. A powerful storm. Scalvoris was no stranger to storms but Balthazar knew better than to try and fly Simula through the storm. If they got above the clouds...
