4. Dracula went to wizard school.
7 to 9 years of no sun? eeeh. But you get a dragon mount, can bend the elements to your command, and learn how to speak to animals? Sick! AND its students are pulled from the peasantry? So its not some nobility bs even if the numbers of students are crazy small! ... although if the students are all apparently vampires (striga) at least by the time the Devil hijacks the place...
Solomon and later the Devil know how to recruit I guess.
Hey. Wait. If the students are all common folk... and if he's supposed to be Vlad the Impaler... how the hell did he go to a peasant-student wizard school or was he an exception?
if you ever feel incompetent just remember that Dracula was a military leader who graduated from wizard school and yet his best plan to break into a house was to throw a wolf through a window
