The Academy

Welcome to The Academy

The Academy, or, The Academy of The Enlightened is a Legendary Landmark of the Order of the Illuminated & the first Kindred educational institution on Earth. The most Fated educational institution on Earth, The Academy itself focuses primarily on the 'finishing' portion of education, with most Kindred only attending the academy grounds proper for a small fraction of their life. Organized & administrated by the Order of the Illuminated, The Academy provides the comprehensive curriculum on the arcane & grants for research through its Grand Commissioner.   Separated into five houses, each representing a force in 'equal opposition' to one another, The Academy offers a course that follows the pathways through Kindred life & culture.  
  • House Scheol - The House of Wraiths
  • House Bravei - The House of Wolves
  • House Cardem - The House of Hearts
  • House Valorii - The House of Nobles
  • House Orea - The House of Oracles
Through the houses, all portions of Kindred culture are represented in the academic pursuits of The Academy.  
The Academy provides a guided, party-like experience throughout the world.   Upon registration a player will be offered the selection of a cabal to join - this will determine your class placement & the focus of your instruction. Class registration is a one month commitment that will lead to earning an executive-level Occupation.   Classes are comprised of a combination of research in the Luchair Annex & tasks issued by the Commissioner of the house you belong to.
   

The Houses of Kindred

Originally cabals formed during the Rise of Unity, the Houses of Kindred have become a central part of the Kindred lifestyle, and tutelage by these cabals discerns the paths which one will take toward Ascension. Guided by the principles of their ancestors, these cabal houses live on through The Academy, the arcane counterpart to the scholarly sisterhoods & brotherhoods of Humanity's college houses. Often tied closely with the political & institutional goals of the noble families of The Grand Courts, the cabals groom Kindred for the world that they are soon to enter.  
House Scheol - The House Of Wraiths
  House Scheol, often referred to as the wayward path, teach others Ascension through Voracious means. Exceptional capable magi & Silkfoots, they ruthlessly seek out Relics for the purpose of stripping & replicating their Memoriesdestroying the relic in the process. The Scheol cabal is known to flirt with the rules of society, toying with the balance to bring more Influence & members their way from every noble family of The Grand Courts.  
The House Scheol are the Silkfoots of Kindred Society, predatory fighters which often work alone & work the circumstances in their Favour, the wayward path work through the The Greater Shroud rather than dispell it, using Secrecy to their advantage.
 
House Bravei - The House of Wolves
  House Bravei, the House of Wolves, is a cabal which educates in Ascension through Willpower & the predatory pursuit of Fate. Magus of some capability & exceptional Soulsguard , the Bravei form some of the strongest Bonds of any cabals through Kindred society, challenging those who seek their education to become more by pursuing a path of ever increasing self-improvement & overcoming fateful encounters.  
The House Bravei are the Soulsguard of Kindred society and lead the charge headfirst into danger. Ruthless fighters & capable defenders, the Bravei are a powerful force to any party & can stand alone just as easily using exceptional Werks of defensive & offensive magic to sustain themselves against any foe.
 
House Cardem - The House of Hearts
  House Cardem, the House of Hearts, also simply known as 'The Hearts' is focused on grooming the Companions & Suturists of Kindred society. Considered one of the more demanding pathways of Ascension, the cabal encourages the precedence of powerful Bonds & service for the good of others. Masters of Weaving, their Rituals teach their followers how to tug on the Strands that tie all things together & pull both Energy & Souls to their content.  
The House Cardem are the Companions & Suturists to Kindred society, and serve the Soul & Mind of Kindred, treating the bodily & mental ills of the whole.
 
House Valorii - The House of Nobles
  The House Valorii, or the 'Valorii' for short, are a cabal founded in the image of The Grand Courts & teach a path toward Ascension through the application of Authority & strong unity as Campaignists. Considered the prefects of The Academy, the Valorii are often troubled with upholding order & unity throughout both Kindred society & the grounds themselves, granted Authority by their name alone, the Valori are never alone, and carry the Kindred with them wherever they go.  
The House Valorii are the prefects of Kindred society, and rally companions from the Non Player Characters to learn the ropes of becoming a Campaignist on their path to Ascension through Authority.
 
House of Orea - House of Oracles
  The House Orea leads a path of Ascension that explores & exploits the Memories of the world. The most powerful Oracles of The Academy, Orea use their expert Insight to uncover the unknown & unveil Secrecy wherever they find it. Tied to the Bonds to the Order of the Illuminated themselves, the Oracles reveal only what is asked but illuminate even the deepest Mysterium with expertise.  
The House Orea act as the Oracles of Kindred society, and gain the capability to Feud with The Greater Shroud through the Luchair Annex itself, revealing Secretive articles through unique challenges on their path to Ascension.
