Wizard Detective

SpoilerShow

There has been some changes nothing big just better writing I hope. If you wish to see the older draft you can see it here.

Long ago in a land that time nearly forgotten. Aside from dusty tomes and new editions. A land governed by dice and word. A fresh new level one wizard resides. Some would go out with their new found knowledge and form an adventuring party. Others will hole up in a tower for countless years mastering their craft. This fellow however, only wanted the cantrips. "They are the most useful spells a wizard can know." Says the wizard, to No one in particular.

At this point a perceptive person may notice that No one in particular is capitalized. This is because No one in particular, in this case is not a manner of speaking out loud without the express goal of speaking to a particular individual or group but is in fact what the Wizard named their familiar. "Well I better get started on fulfilling my dreams!" If it wasn't obvious by the title, the hasty Wizard's dream is to be a detective. But slow and steady Wizard. You haven't even finished your character sheet!

The air stands at attention. Not daring to move in the presence of so many wizards in one place. The round chamber crackles with magic energies confined by ancient stone bricks that make up the tower presently known as Riverside Wizard Academy. Chairs mostly wooden with scars from imperfected mending spells, lay in neat orderly rows facing a fine crafted temporary stage on which a simple podium rests at it's center, a light with no known source that can be seen through the naked eye casts a spotlight onto the headmaster who waits with hurried patience.

Once the last student has found their seat he begins: “Today we introduce three new wizards to the world. After long work and study these students have pushed themselves day after day to gain enough experience to earn their character sheet.” In his hand held with firm reverence, three scrolls each tied with blue ribbon. “The rest of you can learn a thing or two about dedication from these graduates.”

Three young fresh level 1 wizards stand up from their abused arcane chairs as their names are called, gathering on stage with refined rehearsal. One by one they approach the headmaster to accept their fate.

“Now that you are wizards, tell me what will you do now?”

“I will head out with my adventuring party to save my homeland from tyranny.”

“I want to stay here to further my studies as well as others.”

“I'm going to be a detective!”

After ceremonies are over the aspiring detective makes no hesitation to fill out the final parts of their character sheet.
