IMPIUS ACADEMY
AN RPG BY MARTHE AND ROMY
•••
Impius Academy, with its iron gates, magnificent castle-like buildings and exclusive reputation, you’d guess it’s one of those typical snobby rich kids schools, but it’s so much more than that. Of course, the majority of the students are stuck up, but that’s not the most special thing about them, no, the thing that makes them stand out is that they’re vampires. High and Low Class vampires come from all around the globe to the only academy fit to their needs. But, even though this seems like the perfect school for them, it has the typical high school drama and intrigue, but that’s not all.. A recent drama has grabbed a hold on the students, one of their own dead, with a message alongside the body saying: “Who’s next?” Welcome to Impius Academy, will you be able to survive?

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE VAMPIRES
Bitten vampires stop aging when they’re bitten, born vampires age up until 18. (Seriously, some of the teachers here might look like they’re a dateable age, but in reality, these people are OLD.) Each vampire has the
‘typical’ powers, although some of these are stronger with the High Class vamps: super strength and speed, enhanced reflexes, invulnerability to everything but fire and other vampires and of course, immortality. Vampires drink blood, obviously. They can eat other substances, but this will only make them very sick. They can, on the other side, be influenced by drugs and alcohol, only this would take a higher dose then humans. Walking in the daylight is possible for both born and bitten vampires. Born vamps tend to get more annoyed by this, though, seeing as they haven’t felt the need to live during daytime all their life.
• High Class
High Class vampires are commonly considered the most powerful ones. They’re born, not bitten, and they grow up like human beings until they’re eighteen, that’s when time just freezes them. (Imagine that, having a grand-grand-grand-mother who looks exactly your age) Close to all of them come from long bloodlines, some running back to even Ancient Rome. You’ll easily recognize them, most of the time they wear expensive designer clothing and they’ll be screaming: “Do you know who I am?!” Out of the two, they are the fastest, the strongest and they have the best senses, but at the same time, they are also the most vulnerable ones.
You see, as most vampires do, they crave human blood, but unlike the Low Class, they can’t go without it for more than two days, it will drain them of their power completely, leaving them weak. They have an animal-like hunger, it’s not like the Low Class, it’ll literally feel as if they’re starving, attacking if they even notice the slightest drop of blood. Unlike the others, they also can’t survive on animal blood, well, they can, but they’d be incredibly ill, and if they consume too much of it, it’ll completely poison their system and in the worst cases, this can even be lethal.
However, born vampires do have a special ability their bitten counterparts don’t. This is the very much frowned upon, but very useful skill of compulsion. Most vampires detest the use of compulsion, they feel as if they’re taking away freedom from others, but to some it’s a very handy tool to get what they desire. Each and every one of them is able to perform it at a certain level, but because it’s so highly criticized and the possibility exist that it drives you nuts, most of them don’t even bothered to get skilled in it. There are a few who do, and those are usually the ones you have to watch out for. Just kidding.
(No, but really.)
High Class can be enrolled from the age of 14 until they stop aging. They will be given the basic education and of course, the special lessons given to vampires. Like how to control your strength, speed and most of all, bloodlust around humans.
• Low Class
The Low Class, or, to put it simply, bitten vampires, are a lot more complicated. The way they get turned is usually the result of one vampire having a bit too big of an appetite and draining them of their blood completely, then, if they’re lucky, a vampire, this doesn’t have to be the same one, has to feed them some of their blood. A few hours later, you’re as good as new. But also dead. The undead kind of dead. If they don’t get proper mentoring when bitten, they tend to.. well, just imagine what you’d do if you found out that you lost your heartbeat. Because teenagers usually have stronger emotions, they have the worst reaction to this. If you go rogue after being bitten, you get a choice. If you want to live, you are forced to attend the academy and are put under strict surveillance. If you resist, you are killed instantly. However, Low Class is far more capable of learning how to handle their thirst for blood. You would probably expect them to be worse in this, but it’s true. They just have some trouble in the beginning, when the thirst is completely new to them. Low Class vampires can approximately go ten days without any kind of blood before they feel any of the nasty side effects. They can also choose to be ‘vegetarians’, which means they refuse to feed on human blood and usually ask the permission of the school to go hunting animals in their spare time – if, of course, they clean up the mess they make in the forest surrounding the school, for obvious reasons. Low Class vampires aren’t as sensitive to sunlight as High Class vampires are. They are like regular human beings in this aspect. This is mostly because they’ve been brought up in this light, and they’re still used to it. Just like the High Classers are immune to disease and heal quicker than humans, so do the Low Class vampires. They are also less resistant to the compulsion of High Class vampires than everyone else, which has brought up some bad blood in the past between the two groups. If you are bitten between the ages 14 to 18, the years when you are most likely to have stronger emotions to the change, you will be contacted by the vampire council. Since nearly every single one of them will at least make one victim after being changed, most of them are forced to attend the school, but if you manage to not kill someone, you can also choose not to attend the school. If you then reconsider, you can still choose to attend until five years after you’ve been changed.
• The Council:
The High-Council consists of twelve, of course High Class, vampires who have ruled the vampire world for over hundreds of years. They track down vampires who kill people to feed on their blood, since this is strictly forbidden. You ought to feed on the blood you get supplied each two weeks or go hunting for animals in case you’re Low Class. It can’t be afforded to get exposed to the human world. The Lower-Council are the ones that run the school.
THE HOUSES
Each vampire gets put into a House. Based on the fact if your Low Class or High Class, where your roots lie and what status your family has and the reputation you as a person have, you will be assigned a House. These are the four Houses: (In the RPG, these will be decided FOR you. As soon as your role is done, either winchester or I, Tolkien, will assigng you a House)
• Traicere, House of the Elite
Traicere consists out of only High Class vampires. They are the wealthiest of the bunch, most of them could even be considered Royalty. These are the elites of the entire academy. It’s a miracle all their ego’s fit inside the same house.
Traicere holds the most arrogant, popular vampires. They basically run the school.
• Sanguis, House of the Peaceful
Sanguis holds both High Class and Low Class vampires and basically all of the Low Classers that live there, are vegetarians. They are the nice, peaceful ones that get mocked by the Traicere. The point is that Sanguis doesn’t really care about that. They laugh at Traicere and think they’re incredibly posh. Members of Sanguis watch each others back and aren’t afraid to stand up to Traicere – all though they will try to fix everything with words, of course.
• Caedes, House of the Open-Minded
Caedes probably holds the people that don’t really fit in anywhere. It consists almost out of all Low Classers. They’re usually very to themselves and commit to their studies. Popularity doesn’t bother them much and they just don’t like to be labelled. It houses the ones with an open mind and you’ll probably find the rather artistic types over there.
• Mordetis, House of the Brutal
Mordetis holds the rebels, the ones who constantly get into trouble. It’s under strict surveillance and it usually houses the new Low Class students, all though it’s a place where people get thrown in when they constantly pick fights and don’t obey the rules, just because it’s guarded and the school would be able to keep a better eye on them.
Mordetis really don’t care about what happens to them. Most of them are Low Classers brought to the school against their will, not wanting to come here to get trained, but also not wanting to get killed because of resisting.
Well, this is probably a loooot of information, but hopefully everything's clear. (: If there are any other questions, don't hestitate to ask them! ^^
