The Aegean Academy

Learn the way of Aegis by professors and teachers on the Academy campus

*You pass by the bulletin board and read the biggest poster*

The Aegean Academy is a project that involves learning the ways of Aegis. You can find professors and teachers on all kinds of subjects, ranging from archaeology to botany and from blacksmithing to cooking.

The academy is soon becoming finished. The city is located in the city of Aeriel, and a map with direction can be found further down.

If you are interested in being either a student or part of the staff, as a professor for example, see the bulletin board just right of this one.

When you finish a course or a subject you will get some sort of recognition. As we speak, what this will be is currently unknown, but it will be something like a digital diploma maybe. This part of the project still has great room to be evolved and extended.

Swords or axes should definatly be taught by an orc or dwarf.

[Tegrof 46]

Freya, I love your ideas on combat, but how would one make classes on that? Maybe studies on combat and hunting principles would be good?

Arts of War studies would be awesome though.

[pepethepig 13]

(Nevermind if you saw what this said, Didn't know what i was talking about. So, Have a SwordsMaster show them how to Pvp better, Or something. Just mumbling on..)

[Lawrence Berell 226]

I wanna be the evilz teacher who gives everyone detentions!

Name: Ben Harry Fawkes (( IRL Joseph Harris ))

((In-game name:)) (( NiNjAxR3M1Xx ))

((IRL age)): (( 15 ))

Who are you?:

Well, I am many things.

Many used to call me... insane. That is not true. I am rather more philosophical, and like to make up poems, that deal with such issues. For example;

The Chicken and the Egg

What was the chicken before the egg?

Well, 'twas it an egg, destined to be like the others?

Or was it more, a design of Iblees to spy on all?

Maybe a misshaped ball.

Who knows? Only God.

But liken this one to a pod.

Is it similar? I hope so,

For I am not an average Joe.

I am Fawkes, strong and mighty!

And I like chickens, and hard boiled eggs...

(( Purposely set out so; I am actually insane IC ))

Which job and subject/s are you applying for?: Arts and Drama Professor, and Co- Headmaster? You decide... I also believe, due to a past occupation, that anything medicinal could fall under me, instead.

What are your past experiences that can strengthen your chance to get the position?: Well, 'tis not the past experiences that count, but the skill in which the present is delivered. However, this seems vital, so I'll go into some detail...

I used to be a healer in Laurelin. I was sick, however, in the mind from one named Mayctor's lies. After a time, I cleared my head, and I hoped to reclaim my position. But then, I came across this notice, and remembered my tendency to tangent about things, like philosophy.

And so, I aim to help a fellow drow in furthering the education of the masses. I believe that the skills taught here may go on to become useful in the fight against Iblees...

What are your thoughts on The Aegean Academy?

I believe that, for such a new concept, it is fantastic. Many will benefit from the education here, and it will help in furthering the fight, the good fight. Against the Undead and their slaves.

(( It also looks a pretty cool concept so far, and I approve :D ))

What can you help out with besides being a professor?:

I cannot fight well, due to my advanced age, but I can offer a standard of teaching like no other. I also excel at punishment and discipline, something that many lack...

(( I am also on almost constantly, and I am currently doing my Year 11 GCSE's, and figured this'd be ironic. I also owned the first guild, created some good lore for that and now, I am simply an old elf who is a little cranky, and insane from his ordeals. Insanity will never reveal itself to the school- I'll keep 'em separate for you :P

((Doesnt the B.H. stands for Black Hand? :D))

(( Uhhhhh...........

NO! ))

Never thought Fawkes was a one of those Teacher-Types.
