We move on to the last corner of the Great Hall which is currently worth visiting. Like the first we talked about, it will regale us with both scupture and painting:
The Great Hall of the Unseen University is where the faculty wizards get down to business, namely eating and drinking. The hall roof is held up with lots of pillars. The walls are hung with paintings of former Archchancellors. This is the northwestern corner of the hall.
There are three obvious exits: south, east and southeast.
A statue of Ranma is standing on the floor.

look statue
This is an incredible six foot high statue of Senior Wizard Ranma, a well known fellow indeed. It's a realistic life size piece carved out of marble with a divine touch from the gods. Ranma shows the traditional signs of being a powerful wizard. He has impressively long hair hanging down over said beard. Quite a lot of long, thick hair, really. Enough to make you wonder where the beard starts or ends, assuming it's not all hair. Well, it's quite long, flowing and impressive, whatever it is. His robes clearly were designed to scare creatures from the Dungeon Dimensions away. Ruffles along the sleeves, pointy stars, wriggly, mystical looking symbols, a brocaded four and a half headed tiger, as well as invisible octograms show you that the wizard Ranma must be very powerful and has wonderful taste. On its base is a golden plaque.

Look - there's Bimsted Marchripply, 103rd Archchancellor and inventor of the Bimsted Snarl, a special knot for tying tobacco pouch strings.
These are the past Archchancellors of Unseen University. Some are unfinished, probably due to the high mortality rate among high-ranking wizards.
