The Universitas Magistrorum was a Khaenri'ahn organization whose members dabbled in various arts, including astrology and alchemy. Its situation since the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah's destruction during the cataclysm 500 years ago is unknown.
Overview[]
"O Almighty Sovereign, the Universitas Magistrorum has provided the predictions you requested: The two stars have been captured by the world's gravity... After a lengthy orbital period, today their paths shall intertwine once more."
Most information on the Universitas Magistrorum currently comes from the Narzissenkreuz Ordo's research and extrapolation. The organization appears to have been rather influential in Khaenri'ahn society and covered an array of different functions. Based on Jakob's Log, alchemy was among the Universitas' areas of expertise, although he believed Rene would criticize the Universitas for "neglecting the fundamental principles underlying everything" and "invert[ing] even the alchemical stages for other purposes."
In Perinheri, a legend set during Teyvat's Archon War and Khaenri'ah's Crimson Moon Dynasty, the Universitas' strongest warrior at the time was an individual named Alf,[1] suggesting the Universitas also had combatants.
What would become known as the "Seven-Shifting Serpent" would first be developed by the Universitas Magistrorum as the Chaos Permeation, a minor spell meant to taunt vision wielders on the surface, while also serving as a mere party trick employed in performances and parades. Those that used the Chaos Permeation were able to harness abyssal energy to evoke effects similar to the seven elements. While Surtalogi knew nothing of the technique, he would easily cycle through all seven elements on his first attempt, in part due to his deepening knowledge of the Abyss. Subsequently, he would pass down this technique to his disciple Skirk.[2]
