RP Idea & Development: Nothing's As It Seems

[Amateur Nerd at Large]

Good evening, kind Sir and/or Madame.

It has recently come to the attention of the prestigious Farvardin Aegle Academy for Young Men and Women that your child qualifies for acceptance.

It is, of course, our duty to persuade you that our school will offer your child the best possible future for both their own well being and that of your no doubt noble family name. However, we find this to be a most pressing matter that demands a quick decision on your part and can not wait forever for your response, for spots fill up rather quickly.

We must also warn you that this is certainly not a decision that should be made, pressed for time as you are, too hastily. There will be no turning back once arriving at the school.

Your most loyal Headmistress and Lord of the Academy

Good evening, again, kind Sir and/or Madame.

We are very pleased to hear that your child shall be attending our school. We expect to see his/her at our doors very shortly, and assure you that you have been a most advantageous and pleasing decision for all.

Please send the child immediately, alone - save for a proper guard to accompany him/her on his/her journey. Only two bags of luggage of an average side may be brought along.

Your most loyal Headmistress and Lord of the Academy

By the time society had reached the 1800s, the majority of the civilized world had forgotten all about silly things like magic. They had new technology to play with, new mannerisms and pop culture to learn and become experts in. There were studies of languages, mathematics, literature, politics, and music to be taught and learned, but certainly no spells or incantations were ever included. No budding youth would be lectured on the different creatures who share our world, hidden away in the lakes and the forests and the mountains and even among the “normal” people.

So where on earth is one to put all the outcasts who come to terms with such wild and crazy fancies like magic? You put them in an elite school, naturally, to hone their skills and hide them from enemies both known and secret. You send them to Farvardin Aegle Academy for Young Men and Women, out in the
middle of nowhere, surrounded by country and various geographic sites. It is a school shrouded in mystery and, at times, scandal, but its prestige is never doubted nor questioned. This is because people are far too wary of it to ever voice a bad-natured opinion.

At Farvardin Aegle Academy, all sorts of characters co-exist. There are the magically endowed humans, but there are also scary creatures of the night and the generally more preferable fairytale races. One may come across a demon, a vampire, a lycan, a great fairy, a half-nymph, or any other number of young adults. Children have their own building, separated from the chaos and often bad influence their elders wield. To be perfectly honest, humans are the most rare students of all, no matter how the student body may appear.
Classes range from the mundane to the extraordinary, with activities stretching from balls to physical tournaments.

This is the outline you have to work with, the general facts behind the name. Now, its up to you to write the rest
of the story and decide the fate of the students of Farvardin Aegle Academy for Young Men and Women.
