[u][b]Co-Mod(s):[/b][/u] greennhorn & Jedly. [u][b]Level:[/b][/u] Mid-Casual. [u][b]Status:[/b][/u] Closed and currently not accepting. [u][b]Introduction[/b][/u] The year is 2066. It has been exactly twenty years since two parallel, yet unseen worlds, finally made contact with one another. It has been officially nineteen years since these worlds viewed and respected each others differences and soon, it'll be time for the 19th anniversary of peace between this two extremely different worlds. After the very fabric of time and space split, Lucis and Earth, forever separated, become through a massive wormhole in the sky. This wormhole, dubbed by common tongue as the "Black Gale" is home to miles of unexplored wilderness and the infamous "mysterious labyrinths" which are known for appearing randomly, spawning a number of monsters and always changing in design when entered. In order to combat the threat of wildlife, labyrinths and even potential war between the two worlds, a number of academies have begun to pop up all over the areas of the Black Gale currently inhabited by humans. These academies vary by location, but all have the same general concept -- "the end result is peace." Each school takes a variety of races from both worlds and by allowing them to co-exist and learn from each other, students work together towards graduation. Upon graduation, students are officially recognized as "Gatekeepers", an honor by any form of government and realized by both worlds to be enforcers of law, peace and overall, protection. You are one of these students. Perhaps you are ordinary or extremely gifted, good with technology, magic, alchemy or people. Either way, you've been chosen by the headmaster of one academy in particular -- the Academy of The Arcane Artes. It is unknown as to why students are chosen, but the academy itself is outstanding by standards with high graduation and some of the most famous Gatekeepers are known to have graduated from there. That being said, the option is yours to take. Will you accept the offer?

It is dropped nearby the student (such as a windowsill) by a raven, black as night. It can appear during the night, day, afternoon or elsewise. Should you be a second year student and so on, you receive a variation of this letter that is simply updated information about you. After this letter is received by the academy, you are to receive a uniform bearing the academy's crest with the choice of a cloak or coat.[/center] [hider=The Letter][center][i]Dear Future Student, Good greetings to you!
