Kimmuriel at the Academy headcanon rolling in my brain
like all of the Oblodran male kids had to spend some time at the Academy depending on their skills (if they were talented at psionics they studied only 1-2 years in institute (like Kimmuriel), in case of lack of psionic talent they went trough the whole academic process (like Hazaufein at Sorcere and Drizfryn at MM).
Altrough Kimmuriel was a born psion, Matron Kyorl sent him to the Sorcere for the reason "he studied so long from gith and illithid, he really needs to see some drow society stuff too" so Kimmy ended up under the tutorship of his uncle, the famous Spider Mage worming himself trough rare books about the Astral plane, scrying magic and astrology. Most of the students were afraid or disgusted of him because everyone heard the illithid/black blood stuff but I bet he had at least one good buddy. Who? I bet it too. Nalfein Do'Urden.
