» spurcus noct academy

The academy plays a central part in not only the lives of the young vampires but most that work there, check out the info below to make sure you know what's going on in this important place. There has always been academies to help young Vampires adjust and make it through their Changing period, just they were always in hiding. Spurcus Noct and others of its kind in other sectors are the first that are out in the open, created in the year 2000. It is a law in this day and age that when marked or hit the time of the change, a newly changed vampire must attend the academy, even if their parents do not approve.

One of the first things that was done by the Monarch was to set up Spurcus Noct. It was first established as it is now in 2000 when the war began. Before that, academies of this type were tucked away and hidden as boarding schools. It provided a place for new vampires to learn about what they were, what changes were happening, and have a safe place to do all that-enclosed within the high and monitored walls of the school. Fledglings have always had to be watched during those early years when they may reject the change and had to be near vampires at all times. It also provides a safe place for them to learn normally like they would in actual schools.

Set up in a boarding school style, with a dining hall and dorm rooms where the students stay, it attempts for a warm atmosphere and often provides entertainment and healthy food. It costs nothing to go and is absolutely mandatory, often giving those students who wouldn't get schooling a chance to actually get a magnificent education.

» accompaniment. All fledglings when leaving the Academy for longer than three hours must be accompanied by an adult vampire. This isn't just because of them wanting to keep an eye on fledglings, it's also because if they are too long without a vampire presence they'll reject the change and die.

»names. When Fledglings enter the Academy, they're allowed to change their names to whatever they like. This can happen at any time, but they are all presented with the opportunity when they first enter.

»lifestyle. All Fledglings are served healthy meals and are required to take a physical course or more because the healthier they are, the more likely they'll make the transition smoothly.

»formers. All students enter the academy at fourteen, either when they are changed (because most changed are fourteen, almost overwhelmingly so) or when they reach the age of fourteen if they were born a fledgling. Their first year they are First Formers. It then moves on until Fifth Former, when the fledgling reaches the age of eighteen and changes to a full Vampire. Of course, some are late bloomers and will be considered a fifth former until they change.
