[QUOTE="Torm, post: 2120750, member: 12706"] 1 & 2. Westgate seems like a nice place to set up a school like this. Might makes right there, so between the sort of power the people you are talking about have and a little bit of palm greasing, setting up there should be no problem. It is a good central location, with ocean access, to get students from all over the place, and the nature of the city would make for plenty of intrigue and/or "training" for up-and-coming adventurers. ;) Additional costs along and along might include training or minor service for city officials. 3. I would expect plenty of students in pretty much any metropolitan area - but a good central location would help lessen the distance for more students. Seems like certain groups might want assurances, especially churchs who are endorsing this school. Seems like Torm, Mystra, Azuth, and the Elves might all want an eye at the school - perhaps in the form of providing their own instructors? Oghma, too, but for other reasons. Possibly other governments. And depending on how the school leans - whether you want it to be biased toward Good or neutral - you might want to allow for representatives of Shar, Zhentil Keep (ugh), and Thay. One thing that seems like it could be very interesting, given these characters experiences in the East, would be that their school might acquire instructors to train westerners in the eastern adventuring styles (classes). Another thing that might be interesting to think about would be what is done with classrooms when classes aren't being held - would the school maybe allow a [I]local[/I] cooking or sewing class to be held for a fee in a classroom not being used for standard adventuring classes, for example? (And what sort of plothooks could THAT have? They'd never see it coming. :] ) [/QUOTE]
