Welcome to Brightwall Military Academy

A little known and highly secretive institute, Brightwall Military Academy Services students from 6th grade through an accredited university program. The school promotes healthy competition between students, ambitious post-graduate opportunities, and continual learning throughout the year on its lavishly appointed and spacious campus in the woods of New Hampshire. Here Student flourish under the guidance of highly skill teachers and faculty, far away from the distractions of a city (or any neighbors who might witness one of the students messing up a homework assignment and making it rain toads) (Again).

The Brightwall Academy is, after all, one of the world's finest magical schools.

For additional information on our school please review our information page or visit our Registration Center to register as a student.

All current students should make their way back to campus to make sure they're on time to their next class.​

Whooo! I'm excited

 

[ippo]

You know, I just realized that Elanor is your character. Will she be an NPC?

 

[Wolf_and_Bird]

No? I created this world so I could, you know, play in it? This isn't a DM situation.

 

[ippo]

Oh, that makes sense. I guess I'm used to DM'd games.

 

[Kosmik_Khaos]

How's everyone doing?

 

[ippo]

How's everyone doing?

I'm well, thank you! And yourself?

 

[Kosmik_Khaos]

I'm doing well. Having a chill day

 

[Wolf_and_Bird]

Hey you two. Sorry for the delay, work suddenly kicked my butt. I'm going to try to get things kicked off later tonight.

 

[Kosmik_Khaos]

That's fine, take your time. Life happens on life's terms and all that.

 

[Wolf_and_Bird]

Okay. Things are gonna just have to be open now. I'll try to make a post sometime but if anyone beats me to it more power too ya.

 

[Wolf_and_Bird]

Hey, just letting you both know you're welcome to join in the rp. You don't have to join the salt/Elanor interaction (though you're welcome to).

 

[frightorflight]

Or do join if you want, we can get a squad going.

For some reason I wasn't getting notifications for this thread, so I totally missed all of this! But don't worry, I'm here.

Have you been getting them for the main RP thread?

Have you been getting them for the main RP thread?

No, but that's because I hadn't watched that one.

 

[frightorflight]

Okay, just wanted to be sure you knew what was happening.

Hey, @Wolf_and_Bird , what other subjects will be taught at this academy? I'm working my intro post and trying to open with Meric leaving another class for lunch. Figured everyone's not necessary in the same classes all the time.

And @Letrixia , can Meric bum an opening off of your charrie? Figured he can strike up a conversation about your sketching for a little while. What is she drawing?

 

[Letrixia]

@Phi Chisym Yeah sure, she is just drawing what she sees in general, the seats and the people dinning

 

[ippo]

In the meantime, I'll wait for an opportune time to put Natalie somewhere.

 

[frightorflight]

Sounds like a plan.

 

[Wolf_and_Bird]

Hey all. Sorry for my brief absence, the holidays were surprisingly chaotic this year.

@Phi Chisym

what other subjects will be taught at this academy? I'm working my intro post and trying to open with Meric leaving another class for lunch. Figured everyone's not necessary in the same classes all the time.

Sorry for missing this. For future reference classes fall into three main categories: Academic, Martial, and Magical. Academic courses are generally typical school courses (math, science, history, ect.) with the main difference being they're a bit more limited in variety and most students will only take one or two academic classes a semester, with those usually being ones useful for their course of study (artificers might focus on math and physics for example, while someone in a more espionage focused path would take history or languages). Martial classes are your actual combat and tactics oriented courses and magical focus on teaching magic. There are some blended courses (the Intro to Decoding class Salt and Elanor were in is classified as Martial-Academic) but these are usually targeted towards specific uses (like someone who's going into intelligence needs to be able to decode).

There are a *small* amount of what might be considered typical elective courses (music, arts, cooking, ect.) but these are almost exclusively reserved for either the top 200 (and are massive point sinks with little reward) or those who can demonstrate such courses would further their uses (someone with music related magic might swing a music class. Someone who's focusing on doing undercover work or assassination might argue a cooking class would help them in the field).


Generally everyone can work out their character's schedules as they see fit. Most classes would meet two to three times a week for one and a half or two hour blocks. Depending on their focus there's probably a mix of all three types of courses with more specialized for later forms.
