The Arcane University may grant special roles to Students in order to display and honour their hard work, enthusiasm to learn and progression of skills.

The roles awarded to the students are Arcane Scribe, Arcane Mystic and Arcane Praxographicalist.


What is expected of each role?

A Scribe is a student who has shown they are genuinely interested in learning chosen subject.

A Mystic is a student who is halfway along the journey from scribe to praxographicalist.

A Praxographicalist is a student who's skill and knowledge is on a level high enough to be 99% guaranteed acceptance into any partner project currently accepting members of their discipline. They know their craft and what to do. They are an asset - not a hindrance.

Additionally, a student becomes an Alumni when they are officially accepted to a partner project in the primary role in which they've been a student.
