Dear applicant,

We are delighted to inform you that you have been accepted into the Alveos Adventure Academy. When I founded this place of learning all those years ago, I had a few goals in mind. I wanted to prepare the next generation to be ready to face the dangers of the world around us. I wanted to bring peace to a troubled land. Finally, I wanted to create a place where the varied inhabitants of our beautiful home could learn to coexist and settle disputes before violence needs to break out. You have been chosen to join that legacy of peace and a brighter world. It will be a tough road, but we are all grateful for who you will become along the way. Welcome.

Headmaster Jorgle Shalewater

Alveos is a world comprised of elemental planes fused to create a single realm of natural splendor. There is one realm for each element (water, earth, air, fire, wood, metal, lighting and ice), as well as a central neutral realm where the central ruling powers reside. The realms sentient inhabitants include elementals, beastfolk, elves, halfling, and humans. The elves serve as the primary ruling and diplomats while the elementals control each individual realm. Beastfolk serve as the link between higher species and the creatures found throughout the world. Halflings are a short race who promote peace and simple pleasures. Finally, humans, though shortlived, are numerous and house the most religious individuals on Alveos.

Alveos is a world rich with mana that fuels the magic of the realm. Most people can use at least a little magic. Adventurers often pick up magic to help supplement their other skills. Some even choose to go so far as to specialize in using magic and becoming great mages.

However, not all is well in the world. Monsters swarm the world threatening to to destroy the delicate balance that has been maintained. There are also rumors of something lurking in the shadows, looming a threat over the future of Alveos. Though each realm has its own military, many choose to become adventurers to be free to help without obligations to national interests.

The roleplay will focus on young individuals learning how to deal with the world around them and their instructors try to train and encourage the next generation. Let me know who's interested. I'll have more details about the world if we get enough interest to start.

Interested, but a few questions.

1: What age range does the academy typically serve?
2: How developed is the society of this world? Is it a feudal place or is the state developed? Are nobility a thing of the past or able to kill with impunity? I know there are different nations, but I'm wondering what the ideology of the academy as a whole is.
3: what is the biggest critisim against the institution from the outside world?

To answer your questions RabidAnubis

1. For humans, around mid teens to early twenties is average. It's not exactly age locked, more like college. The other races tend to live longer, so proportionally they go at the same time of development. I'll go into more detail in the actual write up.
2. It's feudal for the most part. Nobility are very much present. The elves have a council for international decisions that is meant to prevent war. The academy's vision is to train individuals to aid the people of the world from dangerous threats, promote a sense of unity from diverse cultures, and serve as a place of general teaching and academics.
3. The academy is fairly new considering the lifespans of most creatures involved. Also, some factions don't neccesarily agree with the balance that the main capital has set up. Each nation has people who want more say and influence for their nation over the others. Thus, an academy promoting balance may not be looked well upon by those individuals. The main things preventing conflict between nations are the elves, who have been divinely arranged to serve as arbiters and the increasing threat of savage monsters whose only purpose is to destroy and kill.

Hope that answers your questions. Also, I thank all of you for your interest. I am out of town for the holidays at the moment, but I'll start working on the main forum when I get home. It might take me a few days to get it up, but I hope to have it ready by Thursday.

I'm still working on filling out my character sheets and I don't have an initial IC post up yet (might be a couple of days, hopefully not), but I do have the OOC and the character skeleton posted here if you want to get started learning about the world and making your character. Thanks again for the interest!
