Welcome to St. Valens’ Academy for aspiring dragon riders from all around the globe! The world is falling apart atom by atom, sure—all the more reason to join! Engross yourself in meaningless trench warfare, represent your nation in pointless politics, or become a slave to paperwork, all made possible by the exploitation of the dragon by your side. It’s never too late to start a boy band with your fire-breathing friend—everything is possible at St. Valens’ Academy!
Worry not about the magical corruption that’s slowly consuming your home or the war that encroaches on the peace of Greater Bylcade. In this war-torn and Corruption-addled world, you can consider this place an oasis for all sorts (so long as you don’t mind the academic torture to get in and the academic torture to stay in).
Whether you’re new or returning for summer break, you can enjoy lush dormitories here on campus safe from the harsh landscape scratching at your doorstep while you study for the task ahead. Prepare to join an epic battle against what may or may not be the apocalypse and whatever hostile forces lie ahead, or pick up a flute and lute together with your dragon to look cool in front of a crowd!
Whatever your goal is for your future as a dragon rider, we can promise you an interesting experience here at the Academy!*
* St Valens’ Academy can promise nothing else. Refunds will not be awarded if the interesting experience** is not achieved. See attached pamphlet and seek Terms and Conditions for more information.
** If an interesting experience to you is touching a strange bush, getting cancer, and dying brutally, you are responsible for all damages, including funeral costs.

roles.
prodigy
open
An elite group of students chosen directly by the Headmaster to represent the school and be an example of drive and excellence for fellow students. The exact qualifications one must have to become an Academy Prodigy is unknown. The criteria appears eclectic and varies greatly. A student from any year and any division can become a Prodigy. Common traits noted in Prodigies are exceptional drive and wit. Academic performance, surprisingly, seems to not be taken into account, though Heads state it can impact a student’s likelihood to be chosen. The Headmaster is not transparent with the maximum number of Prodigies the Academy can have, but he appears to keep the number under 9. He tends to favor odd numbers of Prodigies.
A chosen student will remain a Prodigy until graduation, transfer out of the Academy, when the Headmaster decides they no longer fit the role, or when they no longer want to be a Prodigy. Prodigies have sway over any decisions the Headmaster and Heads of Divisions make and have tuition and extra fees entirely paid for. Students who achieve and later step down from a Prodigy role keep their full ride.
Within Academy culture, most students know of the Prodigies. They’re treated with either awe or extra judgment by their peers.

FRONTLINERS
offensive frontliner
open
Graduates have (FLO) attached to their title or replacing their title. Their ability is in raw strength, expected to either incapacitate or kill the enemy. The expectations of offensive frontliners tend to differ the most, as some work best purely at the forefront in order to overwhelm and overtake the enemy, while some work in tandem with defense or support units in order to ensure their safety as they chip away at the enemy. They’re typically the role children think of when they dream of becoming a dragon rider.
defensive frontliner
open
Graduates have (FLD) attached to their title or replacing their title. They’re expected to be able to hold the line on the battlefield and push the enemy back, as well as ensure minimal casualties and injuries. They’re the centerpiece in ensuring the front lines don’t ever get overwhelmed in the case of a frontal assault, and are also essential in protecting the offense as they fight.
frontliner bodyguard
open
Graduates have (FLBG) attached to their title or replacing their title. Their job is to defend the helpless in extremely hostile situations, such as transporting hostages in warfare, guiding asylum seekers to cities, and saving survivors in corrupted regions, and being able to identify and eliminate threats in any of the situations they may experience. Due to the nature of most dangerous situations in today’s day and age, students are taught how to identify stages of corruption in individuals and taught how to make tough calls if corruption is identified.
PR
representa- tive
open
Graduates have (PRR) attached to their title or replacing their title. They’re the most actively involved in politics, known for their silver tongues and their abilities to get anything their country needs them to get. In a dangerous world where everyone is on the brink of war, a mix of sensitivity and a show of power is needed in just the right quantities in order to navigate this world, and representatives have that sense of reliability, intimidation, and charm in order to get just that. Their courses are majorly political ones, and they typically wind up war negotiators, politicians, or interrogators in prisons after graduations. Practice comes in the form of representing the Academy in debates with other dragon rider schools, or representing clubs as the club founder and/or leader.
public figure
open
Graduates have (PRPF) attached to their title or replacing their title. “Public figure” is the fancy word for celebrity in this case, as this course is for the students who joined in order to become one. Dragon riders are beloved in the community and the warriors whose stories are spread are cheered in whichever room they enter, earning a celebrity status, and many left the battlefield in order to ride this hype and become singers, actors, boy band players, and so on and so forth. This was extremely profitable, both for the economy as well as for the glorification of the country’s war machines, and people seem to adore this genre of celebrity, so a course was opened specifically for those who wanted to become popular alongside a dragon with similar ideals. Dragons and riders are taught the craft of their choice and are sent out in the world in order to chase fame and further hype up their profession.
spy
open
Graduates have (PRR) attached to their title or replacing their title for safety reasons. This course is only available to Representative PR students who are scouted after at least three to four years in the academy depending on their performance in the Proficiency test. For the sake of concealing their identity, their paperwork will still list them as representatives. Once scouted, students are taught the art of deception, stealth, and charm, but majorly deception. Students are expected to be incredible liars, evaluate, understand, and fit into a situation perfectly and efficiently, and be able to subtly coax needed information out of others. They’re also taught how to remain undetected, depending on which type of spy the student plans on becoming. Due to agreements and numerous contracts signed with the country regarding the sensitivity and danger of this course, students have constant contact with military officers and are typically sent straight to Greater Bylcade’s military after graduation.
SUPPORT
medical support
open
Graduates have (MeS) attached to their title. Riders and their dragons are taught emergency first aid and (physical and mental) trauma care in case worst comes to worst on the battlefield. Note that these individuals are not doctors and cannot give medical advice or diagnose conditions and ailments, though they are trained to identify symptoms of magical Corruption. They’re akin to trauma nurses or EMTs, except dedicated to the field of dragon riding. They assist every division, but most often are assigned to the frontliners for healing practice.
support bodyguard
open
Graduates have (SBG) attached to their title. This course developed after those with a lot of money and a lot of enemies began vying for military protection and another avenue for profiting off of the dragon rider profession was identified. Here, students are taught how to effectively secure the area, keep an eye out for danger, and otherwise ensure the safety of those around them. They have nothing to do with the war, but still have a somewhat dangerous job protecting those with a lot of targets on their back. They’re typically assigned to guard other students not trained in offense, such as the PR students, as a stand-in for whatever public figure they may guard post-graduation.
public relations support
open
Graduates have (PRS) attached to their title. Commonly given to those with low confidence or those unable to secure a better course but desperate to become a dragon rider, they’re essentially highly intelligent glorified assistants, often given the duty of sorting and managing overwhelming amounts of paperwork. They have, to be frank, the knowledge of historians and the reputation of a McDonald’s employee. They are being trained to assist government officials of the nation, with Public Relations Representative students as their stand-in until graduation. This subdivision has the least number of members.
extra information.
These don’t have to have fancy coding if you don’t want to go through the hassle!’/ Our main focus will be on how interesting and developed your character is, so as long as the information goes through, all is well. There’s no word minimum for any of this information and you can freely remove whatever is marked with *, but since acceptance is majorly based on the character’s Fun Factor, the more detailed, the more likely you are to be accepted!
For now, playable characters can only be those in the Academy. You can apply as a professor or the Head of a division once we get our feet off the ground. There will be NPCs. Important politicians and various other story-impacting characters outside of the Academy can currently only be played by the host and co-host (this will change as people become more familiar with the world).
You aren't required to have as long or detailed of an application as me or Fig by FAR (BY FAR.), but you can look at it if you don't know what we're expecting from a certain section or something!
Some extra notes to be aware of:

Some extra notes to be aware of:
We're majorly accepting based on how interesting characters look, since we want each character to add something to the roleplay. We would love a lot of roleplayers who are capable of making interesting, touching, or silly shit, so anything that catches our eye gets an automatic pass
This isn’t first-come first-serve! We're going to be accepting people only at the end of every week, and applications will end when we have enough roleplayers to start. Approved characters will marked with .
This roleplay has a Discord for most OOC chatting! Accepted roleplayers will get an invitation to the server, which has a version of the lore doc that allows you to comment and suggest things. We'd recommend you use it!
This roleplay will only begin when we have an even ratio of dragons to riders. We allow and encourage you to make more characters after your initial one(s) are accepted to fill the deficit!
