Penderghast College of Elemental Magicks

  is the primary setting of  The Elementalists'' series. ''

Background
It is first accessed by Your Character when they went through the bathroom mirror in your suite at Hartfeld University. Your Character, upon his/her arrival at the college calls the view a  a picturesque collection of cozy looking buildings with steeped roofs, a manicure lawn, and an ostentatious statue out front. The carved marble figure is revealed by Griffin in Chapter 1 to be a security system, which is set to vaporize any attuneless intruders. The aforementioned marble figure moves around as it appears to be monitoring everyone that is coming and going from the college. Zephyr tells Your Character that classes officially start after the freshmen have been placed and the class schedule is then handed out after the Attunement Placement exam. The sport they play is called Thief, for which Griffin, a sophomore is known as a thief champion. The college's mascot is mentioned to be the Dryxmars. However, Beckett reveals to your character in Chapter 4 that until 1916, the university's mascot was the ouroboros, a snake-like creature eating its own tail. But in the aforementioned year Dean Greygarden Waithe changed it to the Dryxmars, who is more elephant like to give it a bit more color.

The Dryxmars Thief team according to Griffin in chapter 5 is second to none. It is also a three time league champion; the most recent win being the year before when he was a freshman. He also revealed to Your Character while trying to recruit him/her into the Thief team that familiars can be used in matches. In addition, he went onto explain that thief is a way more fun version of capture the flag because the stadium shift from one version to another. So in a rainforest version for example, Earth and Wood att would have the advantage, but metal atts would be at a disadvantage.
