Welcome to Lustre Academy, the fifth hunter academy established in all of Remnant. Here you will have the chance to make lifelong friends, hone your hunter skills, fight as part of a team and grow as a person. But tread carefully, an ugly truth hides in the shadows, waiting to rear it's head and unfold the history of Remnant. Prepare for the worst and fight for your allies and your future.
Around 10 years ago, the world of Remnant faced a peculiar crisis. Not a crisis of any fantastical nature such as the growing threat of the Grimm, nor any threatening individuals. No, the problem Remnant faced was simplier.
Overpopulation.
As more small settlments were overrun, be it by Faunus radicals or hordes of Grimm, many were flocking to the Kingdoms of Remnant, Vale, Vacuo, Mistral and Atlas. And as these kingdoms took more and more under the safety of their walls, space became finite, resources began to run out and it seemed they were on the verge of potential collapse.
The governments of the four kingdoms came together to discuss possible solutions for this growing crisis. The talks went on for days aboard a special Atlas built council ship. Finally, a solution was drawn up between the four kingdoms. The birth of a fifth kingdom. The creation of a new living space would give new rest to the wandering masses and could even allow them to mark more land on Remnant as safe, something becoming increasingly difficult.
The kingdoms pooled their resources and gathered an army of loyal soldiers and cunning hunters and marched across the land, one side from Vacuo and the other from Vale. The two armies converged inbetween the two kingdoms and began the building of the fifth kingdom, a kingdom that would come to be known as Vault. In the coming years, the men and women of the four kingdoms worked tirelessly, guarding the encampment and beginning construction upon the new kingdom. Their terrain was favourable, the land surrounding what would become Vault was rocky, craggy and lined with natural defences, fissures and high rising stone they would incorporate into their kingdom's defenses.
It took almost an entire year, but soon, from the crags and splits in the land, the kingdom of Vault arose, a township with defensive keeps manned by Atlas technology and brave men and women. A new hunters academy was formed to train what would become its populace, seeking out an old but wise ex hunter and inventor to become its headmaster. This, became Lustre Academy.
Now, 10 years have passed since Vault and Lustre Academy was formed. A mining community has formed out of the township as a vast deposit of dust crystals have been found underneath the earth, springing the kingdom into economical prosperity and dust based technologies have benefited greatly. Lustre Academy has garnered something of a reputation of being too soft as it is currently the easiest hunters academy to apply for with lower standards than even Beacon, however its graduates have proven unto the world they are no slouches in the act of hunting.
But even now, rumours abound of criminals making the kingdom of Vault their home. With such prosperity brings the ones from the shadows. Dust Runners have been sighted in the area and have been making raids on various locations. The White Fang, however, has not shown their face there. Some wonder if Vault and Lustre Academy are truly safe and the governments of the other kingdoms still watch their little experiment to see if it will truly be a success...

1. All of RPG's usual rules.
2. No godmodding whatsoever.
3. GM's word is law but if you have questions for character building or certain situations, go ahead and PM me.
4. Post length and quality. I generally expect decent quality but don't feel too bad if every post isn't two paragraphs. For battles and simple actions, I don't mind short paragraphs. No one sentence posts though, ideally.
5. You're starting out as semi experienced and you'll grow overtime, so put some work into the arc of your character's powers and strengths.
6. I generally expect a fair amount of attention and not getting left behind. Make sure to PM me if you're going to be away for a while, I will listen.
7. If you get hit, take the hit. No miraculous dodges if a post explicitly states you take damage. I guess this plays into rules 2 and 3 but... eh, I like to be careful.
8. If you are applying with a character, post their description in OOC first. I will alert you if it's ok to move it to the character page.
9. This is for the entrance exam and later forming of teams. I'll be deciding the teams based on performance in the entrance exams so don't go expecting too much.
