The Electoral College, Theice (Lord McBastard) -- Located on Crown Land, the Electoral College of Theice teaches every topic imaginable. After the mandatory four year education a student may elect to attend the college in a wide variety of subjects, usually several at once. They range from magic use, to military service, to Lucian doctrine, to architecture, to language, to art, and so on. However one of the greatest achievements of the college is the advances they have made in medicine. Nearly all the instructors within the college are vampires, meaning there are a great deal of night classes as well as classrooms without windows. The college is not free by any stretch of the imagination. The average citizen cannot afford to attend even a single year of classes, let alone a full blown course. However, sponsorship has become a common practice within the college. A person may apply for sponsorship if they show a degree of talent in a given field. Sponsors can be businesses, organizations, the military, a District Lord, or even crime syndicates. The usual practice, especially for the latter, is upon completion of their time in the college the student must serve his or her sponsor for a term negotiated at the time of sponsorship. Failure to complete classes or the term of service can be met with harsh fines, jail time, and even more extreme measures.
