Deroulex's Select Conservatory of the Arcane is the premiere magic academy of Isonhound, with a special emphasis on applying the theories and practices of magic to everyday life as opposed to a standard magical school that might instead teach students how to wield magic. Despite its advertisement as a magic school, people with no magical ability will thrive just as much at Deroulex as they would any other student.

History

In 730 BR, there was a man. An imaginative man, and a scorned man. A man named Captain Deroulex Dapplewing. Recently having dropped out of schooling, he wanted to create a place where magic was made more approachable for anyone, attempting to do away with the modus operandi of the traditional magic academy, and instead of teaching magic itself, he wanted to show how magic at all levels could be woven into academic study, and therefore, daily life. He travelled the world, searching for assistance in his dream, and eventually made friends with the five Swirled Dragons who helped found the school.

The first dragon he found was Velomachus Lorehold, a red-and-white swirled dragon, whose thunderous breath could put people in their place - literally. She had mastered the magical styles of order and chaos, and who wanted to encourage growth and exploration while keeping a direct conduit to the past. She offered up her power to Captain Deroulex Dapplewing to be that conduit, founding Lorehold College of History.
