Girl by Moonlight: Syllabus of Secrets (Session 1)

Playing at the Hearth

We learn more about our protagonists and take on a mission in this first play session of a new playset for Girl by Moonlight. We see their dormitory and peek in on a class where an experiment has gone wrong. They're informed by the headmaster that their Order, Akhtar, is responsible for arranging an upcoming dance. But even while doing that and homework, they look into the strangeness with Malbrect, leading them to confront a student who has dredged up forbidden motion magics.
Our protagonists have been drafted into a school of magic which is trying to change, manipulate, and even destroy them. When they came of age, they found themselves whisked away to The School. They were thrown into a world of arcane knowledge, strange alliances, unresponsive staff, and dangerous facilities. Soon our protagonists noticed they could see things others could not: people with memories changed, deadly challenges others didn’t acknowledge, and vanishings which went unremarked and unremembered.
Now, as our protagonists enter into their second year, they’ve come to realize the school itself is a trap and a machine for some unknown purpose. They have determined to rescue those students targeted by the school and uncover the secrets of this place. But they must do this while keeping up their studies and avoiding the attention of the staff, teachers, and other entities.
