----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The world of Nevada is one full of power. In Nevada, power is not only sought, it is seen as a luxury. This power, which all of the human population uses on a daily basis, is called Aeon. It is what fuels the growth of life and causes the decay of death. Every living being, from the versatile human to the common farm animal, all have the ability to draw upon the powers of Aeon. Even Nevada itself can use Aeon, as seen within it's beautiful creations within nature and it's unnaturally destructive weather patterns. Those that can use Aeon to an extraordinary extent are called Invokers, and are an integral part of life.

Invokers are known far and wide for their ability to create new inventions for society's use, become strong leaders for their communities, and fight as Heroes within the military. Academies all across Nevada are dedicated to drawing out the power of Invokers, but they have always only accepted those of the human race. Now, a newly created Academy has risen up in the backwater country of Noir, with the completely unheard of acceptance of all races, and a Headmaster of unknown origins. The A.E.I.O.U. will become a new, revolutionary Academy that will allow any and all sentient beings, and no one knows how it will turn out.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What, exactly, is Aeon, and what are it's limits?


Aeon is an energy that flows through everything, and is easily manipulated by sentient beings. Human beings are the most common users of Aeon, but several other races have been known to use it as well. In every aspect of living, Aeon is used time and time again, especially in man-made inventions. Airships, lights, weaponry, it is present everywhere. When one has first made contact with their inner control of Aeon, every individual has a different manifestation of the power. Whether it's the manipulation of a certain element, a extraordinary proficiency in a subject, or a physical change, Aeon will both change itself to suit the user, and the users themselves to suit the limitless power of Aeon. In time, the user will develop more disciplines for the usage of Aeon, until they are able to manipulate it however they please. Each user of Aeon has a different way of "invoking" their power. Some need volatile emotions, others can control them with their will, most start of with needing gestures to command their power, the movements allowing the Aeon within them to flow freely and quickly. It is universally accepted that gestures or another physical medium give the most control over Aeon, but a mental user shows a high amount of skill.





With enough practice, study, and inner talent, the powers given by Aeon are limitless, the most powerful Invokers have been known to even toy with the concepts of Time, Gravity, and the Laws of Nature itself. Creation and Existence users are what make up 95% of the population within the world of Nevada, while 4% are Destruction users. a single percent of sentient beings are those who are completely immune to Aeon, both it's usage and it's effects. These beings are called the Null, and are marked with a permanent helix spiral on the surface of their skin, branded onto them by the world itself.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Academy Itself


The A.E.I.O.U. is located within the center of a luscious forest that spans thousands of yards, on top of a forested plateau. A hidden, runic barrier stretches all around the Academy grounds, and 200 feet above the Academy itself. This barrier doesn't allow any anomalies to enter it's domain unless they obtain a certain Glyph etched into them. The only current way to actually enter the Academy and exit the Academy grounds safely is by airship, specifically "The Blight", which is operated and maintained by the teachers of the Academy. The airship is docked near the forest floor, and a flight of stairs lead to the actual Academy from there. There are three main buildings in the Academy, and other very important areas on the campus.

Current Event!


The Academy is readying its 5th school year, and "The Blight" is flying around Nevada, picking up students for the relatively new Academy. Post your character's preparations for the new school year, and their thoughts as they await the airship. When you're on the airship, interact with some of the students! Or don't. That's OK too.

Name: Arya Lightwood

Age: 19

Species: Human

Aspect: Existence

Discipline: Fire and Lightning

Medium: A runed stave she usually keeps strapped to her back. She is capable of using her power without it, but it requires more energy, more concentration, and is usually not as strong/accurate.

Appearance: She has brown eyes, neck length dark brown hair, and is of medium height for a human. Has a lean but toned body. On her back she keeps a runed stave. Being more practical minded, she usually sticks to clothing she can move freely in, like t-shirts and loose shorts/short skirts.

Bio: Arya had a troubled past. Her family was murdered by Dreads, with her only narrowly escaping with his life. Afterwards, she had wandered the world, in the process developing a talent for the use of the Aeon, Existence. Eventually, she joined AEIOU to strengthen her control over her powers. This would be her second year attending the academy.

Electives: Existence Control and Combat

@Eviledd1984
As stated in the C.S. History and Science are Mandatory, along with Math and Social Studies. Get new electives, with at least one of them being a Control Class (Creation Control and/or Existence Control). Besides that, Approved.
