# Scholar
You spent years research a branch of study. Time spent in academic pursuits honed your mind, allowing you to view the world through an intellectual lens afforded to few.

Perhaps you were only recently a student eager to learn outside the classroom, a teacher who retired but wasn't ready to stop hands-on learning, or a discredited researcher expelled but driven to prove your theories right. Regardless, your way has always been lit by your keen mind, and you retain a desire to know more.
