On one hand, starting with everyone just arriving at the academy is a good way to introduce everyone.

On the [i]other[/i], that's kind of a cliche start to any school roleplay, and starting some time into the semester will allow us to jump right into the action.

Thinking on it, a good idea in my opinion is to start a bit into the semester and have the teams themselves know each other to a degree. The start of the RP could be something that brings the teams together where they meet for the first time or something?
