Welcome to the Academy of Heroes! This is a bring back of an old group that hasn't been seen in quite a long time. As one of the last to have graced it's great halls, I shall now berate you with a lore dump below this, as for the resurrection of such a thing.
In the early days of the Sixth Age. A brutal war had come to a close, an Empire rising up to unify all of the Human Kingdoms together. At the right hand of the Emperor was a man by the name of Creta D'Aren, a loyal friend, and ally. Many called him the black dog of the Aren family, their guard, slave, and pet. None of that mattered when he held the second most powerful position in the world.
None of it mattered, as he aided the new Emperor in his Crusade across the River Salve, into the darklands of Morytania. The chaos of battle was their undoing. The weapon exploded, the Emperor, and his Archmage gone. Many said they saw him fall upon a Gargoyles Stone Blade, but with no bodies ever recovered it was just that, a tale told.
Years passed, many rose up from the line of D'Aren and Da'Angelo, but never again was there a Creta. Except for one who knew the truth, the last Grandmaster of the Academy. Baldor had taken his secret into exile, never revealing that Creta had survived his foray into the darklands. Creta had aided the Grandmaster on one final request, before disappearing, believing his childrens time had come.
But that time has passed now too. It's a new Age, a new time, and it requires heroes. Seeing no one else take up the mantle, the dark clad aged man has returned from exile, taking residence once more in the old guild hall.
In every major settlement flyers could be found, telling of an Academy to train young would-be heroes into the REAL DEAL! Located East of Al Kharid, it would accept any, and all comers.
