Though his father tutored him as best as he could, he ultimately decided that Hoover\u2019s future would best be decided on his own terms, at the University of Canos, as his was as well. Hoover, hoping to follow in his father\u2019s footsteps as a wiseman of the Arcane<\/p>\n<p>When Harlock Brightfeather purchased an Owlkin egg from a Zandorelite trader, he had intended to use it as an ingredient in his alchemical recipes. He had not expected that it would hatch, and that a healthy chick would emerge from it, one that had become well-imbibed in Minera\u2019s Breath from being so near the arcane experimentations that Harlock had pursued. Thus, he choose to keep the Owlkin chick, naming it Hoover and raising it as his own child. Hoover\u2019s earliest memories were in his father\u2019s lab, ogling at flasks and vials, boiling cauldrons and the illustrations in spell tomes and other books.<\/p>\n<p>Hoover was tutored by his father from the age he could first read spellbooks. Though Harlock intended for his adoptive Owlkin son to follow in his footsteps, he came to an epiphany after Dragonblight had almost claimed their lives. His son should choose his own path, and forge his own bonds, rather than simply walk in his father\u2019s shadow. Thus he was sent to the University of Canos. The only one of his kind there.<\/p>\n<p>Hoover has quickly fit in, attaining a place in House Aurveil, and even securing himself a strong relationship with Professor Vahlen, the head of house. Vahlen has offered tutoring to Hoover, citing an old friendship with his father that he feels compelled to honour.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"tmq-reveal-head\"><span class=\"kicker\">The set<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The University of Canos is one of the oldest and most prestigious arcane institutions on the continent of Tharador. It is a vessel for transforming raw, unrefined magic-users into elite mages, either of the court or lab, whilst some paths also exist for those who intend to use magic in creative pursuits. It is currently rebuilding itself, two years after Dragonblight tore it down. Whilst campus life continues in a strange, quiet peace, something sinister stirs within. Students continue to go missing, and the staff are turning to desperate measures to find out why.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"tmq-reveal\"><a class=\"tmq-reveal-card\" href=\"https:\/\/miniquasar.com\/campaigns\/the-arcane-university\/\"><span class=\"tmq-reveal-frame\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"tmq-reveal-a\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"420\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/miniquasar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/au-release-tmq.png\" alt=\"The Arcane University set\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tmq-reveal-b\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"420\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/miniquasar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/au-set-minis.jpg\" alt=\"The Arcane University miniatures\"><\/span><\/a><\/figure>\n<div class=\"tmq-reveal-head\"><span class=\"kicker\">The campaign<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In The Arcane University the party must enter the University of Canos undercover as students, investigating a series of mysterious disappearances with six students currently missing in the school.

All miniatures sold are unpainted, unless otherwise specified. If you would like us to add free matte black primer to the prints, you can let us know, and they&#8217;ll be ready to paint right out of the box!<\/p>\n<h3>Shipping<\/h3>\n<p>Our models are shipped assembled if they are not too delicate, but are usually separated from the base. Wings and some other parts may also be detached and need to be put together, especially for larger models. To put the pieces together, you could use epoxy putty, super glue, or any strong glue that works for plastics. This is to ensure that none of the delicate pieces break or get damaged during shipping. If you really need pieces glued together, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate.<\/p>\n<h3>Free Miniature<\/h3>\n<p>Get a free miniature with your order. No requirements, every order gets one. It will be a random character from our store. If you order multiple minis, you may even get more than one for free! Enjoy.<\/p>\n<h3>Model Scale<\/h3>\n<p>Normal-sized miniatures come in two sizes: 32mm and 75mm, which is the height of the humanoid body, so with the base and other accessories like hats, they will end up being a little taller. 32mm is the standard size if you are playing D&amp;D on a physical battle map.<\/p>\n<p>Larger miniatures are measured by the diameter of their base. Large-sized miniatures usually have a 50mm base, huge-sized ones have a 75mm base, gargantuan ones have a 100-120mm base. For specific measurements on any model, please contact us and we&#8217;ll be happy to give you the exact numbers.<\/p>\n<h3>Creation of Miniatures<\/h3>\n<p>These models are made by the fantastic people at DM Stash, and they make incredible models, so please check them out. We are officially licensed to print and sell their models to you, so you can enjoy them too! We print them with an Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra resin printer with 16K resolution (the highest quality available). They are printed using Elegoo Standard 3.0 Vanilla coloured resin, an expensive resin that ensures models are strong without compromising on the detail. The supports are cut off, the model is sanded if needed, and inspected to ensure perfection. The model is washed off with pure alcohol, then cured inside an Elegoo ultcuring enclosure, and prepared for printing.<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\njQuery(function ($) {\n  var $sum = $(\"div.product .summary\");\n  function tmqMoney(prices) {\n    var raw, minor, n, prefix;\n    if (!prices) {\n      return \"\";\n    }\n    raw = prices.price;\n    minor = prices.currency_minor_unit;\n    if (typeof minor === \"undefined\") {\n      minor = 2;\n    }\n    n = Number(raw);\n    if (isNaN(n)) {\n      return \"\";\n    }\n    prefix = prices.currency_prefix;\n    if (!prefix) {\n      prefix = \"$\";\n    }\n    return prefix + (n \/ Math.pow(10, minor)).toFixed(2);\n  }\n  function tmqVarName(v) {\n    var i, a, attrs, text, idx;\n    attrs = v.attributes;\n    if (attrs) {\n      if (attrs.length) {\n        for (i = 0;
