For a while now I've really wanted to do more academic and research-themed roleplay with Wyrdwood. I though I'd and kick things off by doing a short thread about a guest-lecturer visiting the school. So if anyone has any scholars, explorers, or archaeologists who want to share their work - now's your chance!

I've been looking to give Wyrdwood's spiteful headmistress some more play. Saoirse Nettlefield has long been an aggressive proponent of her Theory of Unified Elemental Transformation, to the point of subtle sabotage against its detractors. She also knows how to nurse a grudge. I thought it might be fun if she invited an academic rival as an attempt at public humiliation... whether or not it backfires is up to whatever witty barbs and brandy fueled derision our character can throw at each-other.
