Plot:
In the neutral country of the Kirganfel kingdom, there is an academy (or college) for nobles where they learn everything from diplomacy to blade combat, marksmanship and magical arts. The special thing is that this year, a few commoners were allowed to join after being given scholarships. Not only is the academy a place where nobles get to know each other after coming of age, but also a place where nobles who are still not engaged can find future partners or concubines. The academy also has a couple rules that all nobles must abide by, such as the nobles of rivalling or enemy countries cannot shed blood within the academy or the city in which the academy is located. Nobles also cannot abuse their rank when on academy grounds and rank doesnt matter among fellow students, thus preventing that lower nobles have to stay silent if bullied by high nobles.
Though bullying is relatively rare, there is still some prejudice towards demi-humans and species perceived as barbaric. Most nobles at the academy are pressured by their families to find future partners and future allies. Nonetheless, there are still dangers, especially this year. There are reports of certain fiends who will attempt to infiltrate the academy as well as those who wish to see harm to certain noble families or sow war between countries or estates.
Playable species: Most nobility in this world is either human or elven or mixed elf-human. As commoners you can additionally play gnomes, ogres (as in like humans but horned), halfling (between size of gnomes and humans, sort of like hobbits but with normal sized feet) or demi-human (cat, dog/wolf or fox, appear human but with animal ears and tail and maybe even fangs).
Setting:
Time focus is a somewhat modern arcanepunk era. Trains are a thing. Mana crystal powered motor vehicles is a thing. If the players wish, it can include mana powered electronics.
Continent: Vaia - one of the three major continents of the world. It is home to around three dozen nations. Climate is warm to temperate. , Country: Kirganfel Kingdom - A neutral kingdom on a large peninsula in the northeast of Vaia. Weather is temperate.
Academy/college: The academy is known as the Royal College of Kirganfel and has been the academy of choice for nobles for generations. It has a large campus with a number of large dorms. The dorms range from a small dorm with rooms for two nobles each intended for lesser nobles to dorms with large apartments for royals and their servants. The campus also features a combat training ground, an arena, a magic training ground, a large school building, a dining hall, stables, workshops (for craftsmen/craftswomen), a guards quarters, teacher accomodations etc.
Uniforms: During class hours, school trips and on special school events, the basic uniform is mandatory. The basic uniform consists of school colors of purple, black and white. This would consist of a purple tie/scarf with a black or white dress shirt/blouse and black bottoms (skirt or pants/trousers). The full uniform is voluntary and includes a hat and jacket. Customizations of uniforms are allowed (such as frilly trims, shortened/lengthened skirts, turtleneck undershirts, chokers).
Subjects: Examples: Blade combat, international diplomacy, social economics, arcane combat, enchanting, botany, alchemy etc.
Magic types available: Fire, earth, air/lightning, water/ice, healing/light, dark/shadow, combat enhancement, illusion, taming, summoning. Forbidden/taboo magics: Necromancy, blood magic, abyssal magic
City in which academy is located: Kirgan, the capital of the Kirganfel Kingdom. It is a fairly large city with a couple hundred thousand inhabitants. Due to the neutral status of the country, the city is quite prosperous. It features anything from middle class neighborhoods to upscale shopping streets. It is a very walkable city, but has buses, subways and trains for longer distance travel.
