History
The mysterious Lord Malik Black Moor founded the University in 1792, as private school for elite students. No one knew what was taught at the school, but many students entered the grounds and where never seen again. In the year 1800 hundred angry townspeople stormed the school only to find all the students had disappeared, and Lord Black Moor’s dead body locked inside his office.
The university was closed down for twenty years, allowing time for the populace to forget the dark history of the school, and was reopened on 31 October 1820 to all students. University is a legend in the local area, but only to those that believe in strange things. Tons of money went into luring students from outside the area to the school, over years since the school was reopened no problems had occurred, many people wrote off the stories and myth created to scare people into leaving. It was known that the land the university was built on was in dispute over who was the true owner by the Lord and a rich local landowner.
The student population was fewer than 150 and the university faced the possibility of closing, however the discovery of an ancient ceremony site on the grounds caused the student population to double.
Today the university is known as a center of medical and scientific excellence, and is also listed as one of the top schools in many different independent studies.
