It's located on a demiplane that is a planar hub. Ashram is located in the city of Alkaran, which was built around Ashram two hundred years ago (the school itself is roughly three hundred fifty years young). Alkaran is populated by planar travelers, merchants, and Ashram alumni.Ashram is a circular building, built around what is known as the Well of Worlds, which is a well with passages that connect it to several different planes of existence through small waterways. The Well of Worlds is located underneath the main office of Ashram and is guarded day and night year round by golems and gargoyles. Ashram also has an arena for assemblies and tournaments and a theatre for plays and performances.Ashram has an overwhelming library, with thousands of tomes in their collection. The library is also equipped with globes of different planes, crystal balls, and mimirs you can conference with.Classes at Ashram are organized into different schools, which are actually just different wings inside the building. The schools all have something in common and are headed by their own principal (an overall dean, who is actually Redalla Ashram, the great-granddaughter of the founder of the school, oversees everything in Ashram). The schools and their respective classes are:School of Acting  ComedyDramaPoetrySpeechStorytellingSchool of Arcana  AbjurationApplied Spell MechanicsConjurationDivinationEnchantmentEvocationPerspective StudiesSpellcraftTransmutationShool of Architecture  ArchitectureDungeoneeringEngineeringMasonrySchool of ArtApplied ArtCeramicsClassical LiteratureContemporary LiteraturePaintingSculptureWritingSchool of CosmologyInner PlanesOuter PlanesPlanar SociologyPlanar StudiesTransverse PlanesSchool of CultureCelestial LinguisticsDraconic LinguisticsDwarven LinguisticsDwarven SocietyElven LinguisticsElven SocietyGnome SocietyHalfling SocietyHuman CivilizationInfernal LinguisticsOrc SocietyTrade LinguisticsSchool of DisciplineBurning Hand StudiesEmpty Hand StudiesFoot & Hand StudiesGentle Hand StudiesStriking Hand StudiesSchool of ExplorationCartographyNavigationOceanographySailingSchool of FaithDivine ResearchElemental Domain StudiesReligionTranscendant Domain StudiesTransverse Domain StudiesSchool of MercantilismArmorsmithingBookkeepingsLeatherworkingLocksmithingShopkeepingWeaponsmithingSchool of MusicCompositionKeyed Instrumental  MelodyPercussion InstrumentalString InstrumentalSchool of NatureDesert StudiesForest StudiesGrassland StudiesMountain StudiesOcean StudiesTropic StudiesTundra StudiesSchool of Physical ScienceAlchemyAnatomyMathematicsPhysicsZoologySchool of Social ScienceGovernmentHistoryLawPsychologySociologySchool of StrategyArcheryCalvaryFerocityTacticsSchool of SurvivalHealingStealthSufficiencyTrapmakingSchool of ThoughtApplied TheoryPhilosophyMetaphysicsSchool of WonderLucid DreamingMedium Research{Most of the classes are self-explanatory, but I'll explain a little about some of them.Applied Spell Mechanics is essentially a 'make your own spell' class. It focuses on the process of spell creation.Perspective Studies has students looking at certain kinds of magic from a certain perspective. Essentially, this class teaches such magic as necromancy from a 'safe' perspective.Applied Art is a drawing class.The School of Culture's linguistics classes are divided by alphabets, not languages.Trade Linguistics basically teaches the in's and out's of communication between traders.The School of Discipline's classes are generic names of the martial arts we know.Divine Research is similar to Applied Spell Mechanics, except it works with Divine Magic.Elemental Domain Studies teaches about domains that have to deal with the traditional elements.Transcendant Domain Studies teaches about domains that have to deal with alignment.Transverse Domain Studies teaches about domains that don't have direct connections to alignment or elements.Melody is a singing class.Ferocity teaches warriors how to channel their rage into power.Medium Research teaches how to ghost ride (as from the Ghostwalk setting).}The schools at Ashram are all located on the first floor, with the exception of a few. Student dorms and teacher offices are located upstairs on the second and third floors.The dorms are separated into houses, which are actually different wings (much like the schools at Ashram). There are twenty six houses, and each house has a mascot. With the exception of X and Q, each letter of the basic alphabet is represented. Each house also has a leader, who is most likely a student who has the longest attendence at Ashram at that point.To pay for tuition costs, Ashram sends their students out on adventures. Portions of the wealth made by students this way go to their tuition payments, although all of the reputation is upheld by the students themselves. Usually, Ashram sends a dorm house altogether on an adventure, but students have the choice whether or not they wish to participate.-----If it seems that I have missed something, please let me know. I realized while typing this that I've neglected to add a magic item creation class, but I can fix that in later.</blockquote>
