Akyid al-Neti was the Headmaster of Al-Bidir Sallah, or the "Home of the Seekers of Knowledge", which was located in Huzuz, in 1367 DR.[note 1][1]

Description

Akyid was a half-elven male sorcerer.[1]

Activities

Akyid lectured for several hours each week covering the finer points of magic. His audience for these lectures was composed of wizards of at least moderate skill.[2]

Foreign wizards wishing to study at the College of Magic were first interviewed by Akyid to determine their motives. These interviews were conducted while Akyid wore a ring of truth so he could discern if the applicants were lying to him.[2]

History

Akyid was also the dean of the College of Magic and the third such person to hold the title of Dean and Headmaster at the University.[1]

He believed that anyone possessing a modicum on intelligence could learn at the least basic magical skills.[2]
