The Art and Magic of Horticulture 141:
Before the coming of Uouh’took to the university, Plant magic had not been taught at here for more than a decade. Even then he only teaches one class, and students that want to learn more have to do so through Independent Study. The class focuses really on farming and gardening and the spells taught all enhance being able to grow your own food. The more privileged students have shown some disdain at this new class, but the few wizards who have come from smaller villages where farming sustains life realize very quickly that the magic they learn in this class can be brought back to their town or village to improve the lives of their families.
The spells of Plant Magic that can be learned: Ritual of Reaping, Spell of Sowing, Seek Plant, Identify Plant, and Heal Plant. Students must learn Identify Plant to pass the class.
The Magic of Movement 102:
For those who continue on with learning Movement magic in the second semester from Professor Boreira, students begin to learn spells that will help them survive combat and battles. Though all the practice drills feel safe enough, students often realize that Professor Boreira may have learned these skills on the battlefield and not just in a class room. Their very cheerful attitude belays a darker past. The older students swear they have seen the Professor dancing routines that if they had a sword in their hand, they would be fighting instead.
Spells that can be learned are Hinder, Deflect Missile, Quick March, and Distant Blow. Students must have mastered both Haste and Apportation by the end of the class, since all other movement spells are built on those foundations. Professor Boreira also expects students to have learned at least one additional spell based on either of those foundation spells,
Body Manipulation 102:
Even in the headmaster’s office above ground, everyone knows the first day of the second semester because of Professor Grig’s habit on that day of teaching the students the Tickle spell. Honestly her students spent that first week practicing that spell, to the delight of many, and the annoyance of some. The second week she teaches students how to fumble and trip over themselves. She then spends the rest of the semester teaching students how to increase their natural abilities like being able to lift above their normal strength, running a little faster to your next class, or being able to resist falling asleep in class because of a late night study session. She expects students to practice these spells if they wish to continue studying Body Control magic in Year 2.
Besides Tickle, other spells students can learn are Clumsiness, Lend Energy, Might, Grace, and Vigor. To pass the class, students must learn Clumsiness which Professor Grig will expand upon in Year 2, and either Might, Grace, or Vigor.
The Other Elements 122:
By this class, Professor Soriena usually has most her students understanding the importance of all four elements. She teaches how Earth and Fire magic both counter other elements, but also enhance each of them. She loves teaching how earth and stone can be turned into air or into water. Or how fire can be turned into smoke and how to keep wood from being set on fire. All the elements are connected and are necessary for life. Professor Soriena abhors violence and prefers to not teach combat spells in class. Though she is quite proficient with Jet spells and students that she likes who are not bullies and really just need to defend themselves, she will teach them what they need to know. There is a story of thieves breaking into the university not long after she started teaching who were found turned to stone in the morning. She came to breakfast the next morning like nothing happened, but no professor has made fun of her since.
Spells students can learn in this class are Create Earth, Earth to Air, Earth to Water, Shape Fire, Fireproof, and Smoke. For those she is willing to teach, they can also learn Sand Jet, Mud Jet, or Fire Jet if they are willing to wake up early in the morning before breakfast or the sun comes up to learn. To pass the class they need to know Create Earth and Shape Fire. Any other spell they need in Year 2, she will teach them then.
