Academy of Celestial Learning (Exalted 2e DotFA) *On Hiatus*

Anthegenia is a city largely inspired by ancient Greek architecture and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon: gilded white marble structures, high spires and flowing staircases, lush greenery cascading from roofs and terraces, endless varieties of flora, pristine pools and graceful fountains, statues capturing the perfection of human and animal forms. It is a floating city, raised above the ground by Essence engines of grand and complex design, protected from outside harm by a dome of pure energy maintained with prayer and song.

First erected in the peaceful centuries after the Primordial War, Anthegenia is prosperous in the height of the First Age, a time when Solar and Lunar Exalted still rule Creation with Sidereal Advisors at their side. Among its notable structures -- palatial manses, magnificent coliseums, temples dedicated to the Incarna -- is the Academy of Celestial Learning, Anthegenia's premier institute of higher education for young Celestial Exalted.

Players will assume the roles of students of the Academy and go through their day-to-day lives growing up as Chosen of the Incarna (Solar, Lunar or Sidereal Exalted). The typical age for Academy enrollment is 15 to 20 years old, though it is possible to Exalt earlier or later in life.

Players may also choose to roleplay professors teaching one of a variety of subjects (martial arts, sorcery, medicine, craft, theology and so on), both as full-time and guest lecturers. These will be older, at least 60 and preferably centuries old in age, and are also Solar, Lunar or Sidereal Exalted.

The Academy is both the namesake and heart of this game, and where its characters will spend all of their time. Rather than a purely plot-driven or adventure-oriented experience, Academy of Celestial Learning will focus on interaction between students and professors, classes and extracurricular activities, studying for tests or working on projects, attending Academy-wide events and so forth. The current game time will be kept track of, and advance now and then to keep the game from stagnating. How active the Academy is will largely depend on how much the players are willing to put into it, so keep that in mind when you join! :)
