[@pkken] Just two things, not even real problems. First, with the daddy issue, his dad wouldn't know if Marth was a Familiar or a Mage until he either developed magic or his ability. For all his dad knows, his son could be a mage, and he could be putting him through the wrong training. Most find out if they're a mage or a familiar between the ages of 13-16. Magic starts to manifest weakly at that age, and some early blooming familiars get their powers then. But if he's like, 5 or 8 years old, his dad's training would be useless because you just can't speed up that process.

The next issue is mercenaries. There's not a lot of mercenaries in Prydain. There are adventurers guilds that do mercenary work, though they're consider seedy and less reputable. However, some older ones do wield considerable influence and wealth. If your character's father worked in or was even the head of one of these guilds, that would make much more sense than straight up mercenaries, and would also help tie your character into the world a little more.

Other than that, we can see no problems. Good work! We'll go over your quiz shortly!

[@Natsu] Good question! If one half of a pair were expelled, dropped out, or transferred schools, the student remaining would likely be matched with an older student without a pair temporarily, until another suitable partner becomes available. Students can transfer into the academy at any point in the year, so students who experience a dropped partner will likely not be on their own for very long. :)
