Building Layout

[googlefont=lobster]

The school is one large building divided into 8 wings and a center area. The building has three floors.

The wings span all three floors. There's one for each of the six elements, one for the main staff who aren't associated with a single element, and one for visitors.

The bottom floor is the main floor. Classrooms, offices, meeting rooms, and the entrance can be found here. The classrooms are themed after the wing they are in, and designed to assist with teaching for that element. In the center area, to the left are the auditorium and the library. To the right are the dining room and the kitchen inside it. In the center is a large grassy courtyard with trees and picnic tables.

The second floor holds research labs for the six elements, visitors, and staff. It also holds more of the staff offices. The only part of the center area is a wide balcony for those who need a bit of fresh air.

The third floor is dormitories and houses everyone at Valenceau. Students and professors specific to an element will stay in their dorms for that element. Visitors and staff have rooms not organized by gender. Most of them get their own rooms unless they choose otherwise.

All rooms have magical ceilings that can be transformed into one-way skylights, allowing them to see the sky and get light from it even if they're not on the top floor.

History

[googlefont=lobster]
Valenceau was created during a time of magical crisis where nobody could control their powers. A few very powerful and brilliant Citizens gathered together to learn the secrets of magic. They learned enough to control their powers, and decided to build a school to teach others how to control and develop their powers. They named it after their leader, Mila Valenceau.

Since then, the school has been kept up to date with the latest magical advancements. The magical ceilings (that can become magical skylights) were an invention only created twenty years ago. Instead of having to be fed by the staff's energy like they used to be, appliances there are run by Arcana crystals. Some say that the school, after being fed by so much magic over the years, is somewhat sentient. Rumors say that it has expanded itself several times to make room for more students.

Now, every student comes to Valenceau as soon as they begin to show signs of magic. The most gifted and talented of those students are invited to return after graduation as professors, researchers, or other staff.

Classes

[googlefont=lobster]
Valenceau has classes for students to take to learn to use and control their magic. Some are the same for every element, and others differ from element to element. More advanced classes require that a mage be a certain level before taking them. All are taught by one professor. Please check the claims board for details on professors and classes. (For now, these are just suggestions).

Staff

[googlefont=lobster]
Professors at Valenceau are chosen because of their good teaching skills, exceptional talent with their element, outstanding leadership skills, and strong love for learning. They are the best in their fields, and are free to use any of the research labs at any time provided they also do a great job of teaching classes. Many specialize in a specific field of their element and teach only the classes relating to that.

However, they're not the only ones who work at the school. Honest, good-hearted, and talented people are also hired for other jobs, like kitchen staff, custodians, or school nurses. Others work in the offices to keep the school running smoothly. There are staff members who serve as night guards and make sure that nobody breaks curfew. If you think of a cool staff position for the school, please suggest it to us!

Then there are the head staff. They not only run the school; they also make many of the most important decisions for all of the other Citizens. These are the wisest, smartest, fairest, and most powerful of all of the Citizens. To become one of the head staff, they must get a majority vote of yes from all of the towns and cities in Oneia. One needs a good reputation to become head staff, as they have a lot of responsibility.
