Today's the first time in a long time that I've felt empty. Not even sad or tired, just empty. This quarantine is getting to me more than I thought.

@Jessica Bunny: You live in America! College is optional (and expensive) and around you is opportunity. I believe you can make it!

@KiritoAsuna I only put the "Master" section in the case that the character did have a Master, as Master-Apprentice relationships are a big thing in the RP. It's entirely possible to be self-taught, though a word of advice: Apprentices with Masters are generally more advanced than those without, since they've got a jump-start on their instruction. Still, there are a large number of self taught students as Masters don't grow on trees, most only take a single apprentice, and some don't take an apprentice at all.

It's often said "the quality of the apprentice reflects the quality of the Master" so to speak.
@SlashInfinite If by risk, you mean dangerous to others, actually not so much. In fact, it's normally not that dangerous. Normally, being the keyword. It's a fairly popular and well-researched branch, but very few advance to a Master rank in it. The danger occurs when you take timefuckery too far. To put it in short words, the universe itself will send hitmen after you, and it won't stop until you're dead.

@shagranoz Sorry about that. I was sure I responded to you . . .
Anyway, everything's fine except for the equipment, and the thing she'd sacrifice. For the Book, all I'm really wondering is where it came from. For the sacrifice, I specified something important to her, something she'd at least have some difficulty giving away.

@KiritoAsuna & @Cojemo Great to see you guys on board! If you have any questions just ask!
@Rune_Alchemist oh, Slash already asked me in a PM. He was curious about how many years you could stay at BUM. The answer is technically unending. You graduate once you become Master ranked, and ranking has no bearing on age or year. So unless you drop out it's entirely feasible for a "student" to be in their late forties . . .

@Riffus Maximus Sadly there aren't any teacher spots open :( You could play as a student on the verge of Masterhood (graduation) however.
@Leoven It's not impossible, though there had better be a really good reason behind it. Especially since the school isn't a charity. So things you'd have to address asides from how she came to the school would be how she manages to fund living there. I also noticed that according to the CS, she'd have been in the school since she was 5, when B.U.M. only accepts 7 year-olds and above, and that's only if they've achieved the required rank. So I'm gonna need an explanation on that too.

The teleporation glyph glowed with a gentle blue light, and Mede Artus, Chief Custodian, admired the glow. No matter how many times he operated it, the entrance glyph to the school was a thing of wonders - all the more reason to admire the Headmaster, who constructed it. Normally, knowing how to operate a glyph meant that you would know how to reconstruct it. This was especially true when the one studying it was a Master such as himself, but after thirteen years of working on it, he was still no closer to figuring out how it was made. The whole thing was so complex, with facets hidden within facets, and yet, it still allowed for even an Novice to be able to operate it - so long as they were given the proper tools.

Finished with his admiration, Mede stepped back, and stretched. The new semester was starting and that meant new blood would be rushing in again, though he wondered if it would replace the amount lost. Every year the teachers made bets - would there be more or less students than last year? Mede himself bet on more this time. Last year, relatively few dropped out and there were no graduations either. So unless a startling number of people declined their invitation to the university, they would probably see a decrease in the number of available dorm rooms.

Once the students arrived, that meant the opening ceremony had officially begun. Which also meant that breakfast was being served. Mede grinned. There was nothing - nothing - better in the school than breakfast. It was the Headmasters creed, no, demand that every day began with a good meal. And by every god, were the meals good. It was also another reason why students were brought here at 12 am. So they wouldn't have a chance to eat yet, and by the time the opening ceremony concluded at 2, they would be practically starving.

Of course, that made the breakfast served all the more savory. The Headmaster was a cunning bastard he was.

He looked at his watch. The spring equinox was almost here. Soon, students would appear on the glyph, and hopefully, they skipped breakfast.

OOC is up people! I've added a map, and new content will be coming soon!

@Rune_Alchemist Checks out alright! Just wait a bit before moving her over to the CS Tab :)
"To Mr/Ms [Insert Name Here]

If you are reading this, your application for the Breakfast University of Magic (B.U.M.) has been reviewed and accepted! Congratulation and thank you for choosing us. We here at B.U.M. pride ourselves with having the best instructors, and a curriculum truly worth of being called 'the best!' and it has ever been our mission to guide potential mages, witches, warlocks, shamans, wizards, etc., towards the becoming their ideal self!

"Attached to this letter is the university handbook with map, your student I.D. so you don't get disintegrated by the school wards (that was a joke! Mostly) directions on how to get there from your location. Also attached are your room numbers and complementary lunch tickets!

"The term begins on the Spring Equinox (That's March 20 in mundane terms! See you're learning already!), please take care to arrive by 12:30 AM - yes you read that right,
AM, as in, Ante Merediem, as in before midday, as in before dawn! It doesn't matter what timezone you're in, just get there by 12 AM!

"Once again, thank you for choosing B.U.M., and may you live in interesting times!

Magic exists. Magic is mysterious. Magic is attractive. Magic is powerful. Magic is all of this, and more.

But above everything, however, magic can be studied.

And that is where the Breakfast University of Magic comes into play. It is one of hundreds of secret schools scattered throughout the globe, and also among the foremost, perhaps even the best. It's Founder and current Headmaster, at least, is unrivaled among mages, and among the archmages, first among peers, and he has been for seven hundred years.

The University is an alliance of different schools of magic, all dedicated to fostering the potential of the magic users who walk through its hallowed halls. Although, rather than a conventional school, it is more akin to a huge research laboratory with occasional lectures. Fights are also more common and accepted than what would be permissible at mundane universities - it has to be, otherwise combat oriented magic users would wreck the place going mad from boredom!

Anyone can be accepted here, but not everyone; the standards for acceptance into the University mean that at the very least, some measure of control has been attained. It does not accept complete novices.

CS

Magic System - Magic here follows a "branch" system, in that all magic is descended from one of 5 sources or "Aeon's". The further from the source the less potent the magic. Once a magic - any magic - has reached its absolute pinnacle, it is said to evolve into an Aeon, and the mage in question is said to have "attained" it. Those that have attained an Aeon move above even the revered "Archemages" in rank, and become revered "Archetypes"


Magic Ranks - Mages are classified according to power, control, and their singularity - that is, the percentage of people that can replicate magic similar to theirs.


Examinations - Examinations in B.U.M. are the method by which one can prove they've advanced in rank. Examinations are generally held in the presence of at least 3 Masters who have no relation to the examinee(s), and consist of seven tasks. In order for a student enrolled in B.U.M. to graduate they must reach the rank of "Master", regardless of age or number of years in the school; the graduation exam is known as "The Full Circle Exam" and is done in the presence of 7 Masters, 1 Grandmaster, and the Headmaster. Generally, most mages do not pass or attempt the Full Circle, so they opt to stay in the school longer or drop out entirely and seek independent study. On average there are 3 graduates every 11 years.

School Locations


Field Trips - Only Novices and above can go on school field trips. Some locations may require you to be at least Journeyman rank, and sometimes with a Masters permission or presence. Field Trips are usually undertaken for the purpose of gathering materials, study, or experience. Locations include the likes of the realm of the Fae, Atlantis, and Tartarus. Requests for a field trip must be submitted through the Department of Academic Affairs with at the signatures of at least three participants - you are not allowed to go on a field trip alone!

I.D. - the all important Information Document! Each faculty and student is issued their own, unique ID upon acceptance to the school. Don't mistake them for just an average piece of plastic, however. The ID's contain powerful identification magic that not only allows you pass through most of the schools natural defenses unharmed, but also access its facilities. Without an ID, good luck being able to do things like take the train, receive letters from outside the school, or even go shopping!
@shagranoz Yes there is! Though keep in mind that you should probably keep that a secret as being half-demon is like painting a nice little target sign on you :)
