A Deadly Class: Lessons in Blood

Death is on the Syllabus

Magic is carved in flesh. Survival is carved in blood and bone.
Deep in the heart of Transylvania, nestled between frozen peaks and ancient woods, lies Scholomance - an academy for the gifted, the damned, and the dangerous.

To the outside world, it's just a gothic relic of forgotten centuries. To those within, it's a place of secrets, sacrifice, and shadow. The halls echo with arcane whispers, and students walk under the weight of blood-bound legacies. Scholomance does not teach magic. It awakens it.

Every month, a ritual must be completed. Flesh must be offered. Symbols must be carved. The balance between this world and what lies beyond is fragile - and one misstep invites horrors no spell can undo. When a ritual is missed, what follows is not punishment... it is carnage.

The villagers fear the school with reason. They say its stones were laid by the Devil's own hand. That anyone who wanders into its grounds is never the same - if they return at all. They're not wrong.

And now, something stirs in the bones of the earth. Something old, something wrathful. A demon born of grief and vengeance. When two students stray beyond the castle's reach one moonless night, a chain of events begins that will paint the forest in crimson, and reveal that not all monsters are summoned - some are made.

At Scholomance, power has a price. Mercy is weakness. And in the silence between spells, the dead are watching.
