Students of the Great School of Magic
This material allows one to play adventures at the magical university of Glantri. The material presented here does not re-present any of the Gazetteer material about Glantri, which can be bought online (for five bucks). It does however provide rules for playing a humorous game involving students of the magical university. I have used the GURPS Powers rules to represent magical powers - but anybody wanting to use the setting with normal magic should not have a major problem.

Even if you do not want to play in a such a setting, you might find the different character archetypes (all magical students) found in the Player's Handbook interesting. Also, you might like the adventure nuggets, which are easily applicable to other urban fantasy settings.

Rules Material
I have created some GURPS-specific rules, templates, and monsters for this campaign, which are shown in this section.
| The Player's Handbook contains all the information needed to create a student at the Great School of Glantri. | |
| The Creature Catalogue contains classical D&D monsters converted to GURPS 4th Edition. | |
| The Magical Schools of Glantri is a document describing different magical school using power-based magic. The school are fully elaborated, using prerequisite trees. | pdf, Character Grimoire Record Sheet (pdf) |
| Magical Items describes several interesting magical items for characters in a high magic campaign. | |
| The Alchemy Rules offer a simple system for creating potions. | |
| Equipment Cards are a good way to handle which PC currently carries what. The core concept of this idea, originated by Monte Cook, is to represent each piece of equipment with a card. If have created several, usually with a small colour picture representing the items. | pdf, pdf (weapons and armour), pdf (Equipment) |
Player Handouts and Maps
Some pictures and maps to give to the players.
| Masters of Glantri (Gallery) | |
| Glantri Henchmen (Gallery) | |
| This German-language document contains some player information about different parts of Glantri | |
| The Hidden Temple Tiles can be used to set up a combat situation for the PCs. These tiles use a square grid and show a chapel hidden underground. |
Campaign Material
Background descriptions, NPCs and other stuff.
| The Favour Table is used to record how well-liked the PCs are by the different masters of the school. | |
 University Tests (These are adventures that focus on the PCs passing tests at the university - mostly by running through labyrinths filled with magical traps) |
|
 NPC's of Ill Repute describes some of the masters of the school as well as major shakers and movers that the PCs might encounter. |
|
| Some low-level adventures are found in the Magical University Adventures (The story here became too confusing, so I stopped this arc in the middle - a streamlined version is the Vampire Lord Story Arc. I only kept this file for the early low-level adventures some might like) | pdf, The Magical Map (pdf) |
