Imperial Academy

The Imperial Academy of Royals is known for its top-notch education provided by the best educators in the entire Empire. Instruction ranges in topics from history and warfare to the arcane and divine arts.

It is also known as a place of intrigue and romance. This is where next set of leaders make their alliances, their enemies, and their future marriages. Backroom deals, backstabbing, elimination of rivals through humiliation, and similar activities are the norm here.

All students wear the same basic uniform. Men wear black trousers, black shoes, black shirts, and black jackets. Women wear black heels, black thigh-highs, black knee-length skirts, black blouses, and black blazers. But rank in society is displayed by cloth and additions to the uniform. Commoners wear low-end cotton with no embellishments. Low-end nobles wear high-end cotton with copper thread lining the seams and edges of the uniform. High-end nobles wear low-end silk with with silver thread lining the seams and edges of their uniforms. The highest noble families have their family crests embroidered on the left breast of the uniform. Royals wear high-end silk with gold thread along the seams and edges of their uniforms and the insignia of their royal family embroidered on the left breast.

You could be a commoner, attending under scholarship provided by one of the noble or royal families. You could be a noble heir yourself, attending to make connections with people and potentially find your future spouse. You could even be royalty, looking out for the interests of your kingdom in the Empire that it must bend knee to. Or you could even be the Emperor's Hidden Heir, rumored to attend classes disguised as a commoner.

This is the Empire's Academy of Royals, which serves to train royalty and nobility from all over the Empire. The Emperor himself attended when he was a young adult, and the various children of kings and queens and noble families also attend. Commoners also may attend, though they do so either through being children of rich mercantile families or by earning scholarships backed by a noble or royal family. Many of those who attend are expected to become the future leaders of the Empire itself.
⠀
The classes range from normal subjects, such as mathematics and history, to the esoteric, such as arcane theory and divine divination. Each has their own teacher.
⠀
All students have the same style of uniform. Males wear black trousers, black shoes, black shirts, and black jackets. Females wear black heels, black thigh-highs, black knee-length skirts, black blouses, and black blazers. Uniforms mark the nobility ranking of the wearer; commoners wear low-end cotton uniforms with no embellishments. Low-ranked nobility wear high-end cotton uniforms and have copper thread lining the seams and edges of the uniform. High ranked nobles wear uniforms of low-end silk with silver thread lining the seams and edges of their uniforms, with the highest families having their family insignia embroidered upon the left breast of the uniform. Royalty wear uniforms of high-end silk with gold thread along the seams and edges of their uniforms, and all of them have the insignia of their royal family upon the breast.
⠀
This is a school rife with political games and scheming. Some spoiled royals and nobles try to throw around their weight and power, either trying to crush someone in public or scheming to take them down through less obvious means.
⠀
But this is also a place of connection and romance. Many nobles and royals are seeking allies and even spouses, whether it be royal or noble or even a commoner who simply makes too many connections to be ignored.
⠀
The Empire's Academy of Royals is where the next generation of leaders are taught and the next generation of political alliances are forged. The choices made here can decide the fates of entire kingdoms.
